  17. The healthy liverSource: www.hubpages.com The liver processes the alcohol consumed at a constant rate Norfolk Drug & Alcohol Action Team 2008

  18. The stages leading up to cirrhosis • The three main causes of cirrhosis in the UK are excessive alcohol consumption, hepatitis C virus infection and obesity. • Almost everyone who drinks excessively will develop a fatty liver (caused by excess fat building up in the liver). • Somewhere between a quarter and a third of those people will go on to develop liver damage – this is called alcoholic hepatitis – which causes some scarring (fibrosis) in the liver. • Cirrhosis is the final stage. This is when extensive scarring begins to block parts of the liver from neighbouring cells. • The scar tissue interferes with the way your liver functions, preventing it from regenerating properly. http://www.nhs.uk/Conditions/Cirrhosis/Pages/Questionstoaskpg.aspx?url=Pages/Questionstoasktab.aspx Norfolk Drug & Alcohol Action Team 2008
