Alcohol and health problems?

Question

I am 26 years old. I drink once a week on the weekend. I drink usually 8 or 9 beers in one sitting. I don’t consider this excessive but I don’t consider it moderate drinking either. I wanted to know if I continue will I eventually develop health problems, such as cirrhosis? I am otherwise living a healthy lifestyle. I eat a healthy diet (no fast food or soda) and I exercise 4 days a week. I am also the within a health weight (165lbs at 5”11). Any advice or thoughts would be appreciated.

Answer 1

everyones body is different you can live healthy and still get problem issues you know your body so if you feel you want some advice bring it up to your doctor. I know people who drink (one drink) every day and are doing fine!!!!

Answer 2

At 26 years old , there's no problems drinking 8 , 9 beers in one sitting, but if you're still doing that when you're 35-40 years old, then you will most likely start putting on a ton of weight, regardless of your "healthy" lifestyle.
But I'm guessing that by that time you'll have cut back you beer consumption on your own without even thinking about it.... at least I did...;>)

Answer 3

You have no worries, I honestly drink a case a day, For years, I'm hardcore but no problems yet, At the rate you drink 3/4 of the U.S would have problems, Party on my friend....

Answer 4

I wouldn't worry about it. Just don't drink on an empty stomach....Ya gotta have some kinda vices and this one sounds pretty safe.

Answer 5

every day the max of beers should be 3-5. it can cause weight problems...

I'm no expert on the matter, but I think you'll be fine. You might want to ask your doctor if you're concerned about it though.
