Alcohol that you drink is actually ethyl alcohol. It is considered a foreign substance by the body that is why the body initiates its excretory mechanism and metabolism to get rid of it. When alcohol is ingested it is metabolized to a lesser toxic substance by the liver (the liver is the major metabolic organ) . That substance is acetaldehyde. Although acetaldehyde is less toxic. Continued exposure of the liver cells (hepatocytes) to this substance will cause these cells to necrotize (dry up) and eventually die. it is just like continuously putting a drop of acid into the same spot on your skin. It will burn your skin. If the person is an alcoholic, the continuous on slaught of acetaldehyde on the liver cells will eventually lead to cell death and irreversible alcoholic cirrhosis ( fatal disease of the liver - leads to death). It is a wonder, why most people know this, but still they keep drinking alcohol. As for chickens, fat or lipids could be acquired and if there is no exercise, this may increase the cholesterol or triglyceride levels of a person. Triglycerides and cholesterol if elevated can lead to heart or cardiac diseases.
