Alcohol is a substance that many people view as a social necessity, but from a biological standpoint, it is an absolute toxin to every cell in the human body. There is no "safe" amount of alcohol because even moderate or occasional use is detrimental to the heart, liver, and brain. It causes immediate oxidative stress and halts the body’s natural repair mechanisms, forcing the system to prioritize the metabolism of the toxin over essential nutrient absorption. For those working hard to optimize their health and achieve peak physical condition, continuing to consume alcohol is effectively self-sabotage, as it actively poisons the very cells the body is trying to heal.
