  4. Alcohol is created when grains, fruits, or vegetables are fermented. Fermentation is a process that uses yeast or bacteria to change the sugars in the food into alcohol. How is alcohol created?

  5. Alcohol is a depressant, which means it slows the function of the central nervous system. Alcohol actually blocks some of the messages trying to get to the brain. This alters a person's perceptions, emotions, movement, vision, and hearing. How does alcohol affect the body?

  6. In very small amounts, alcohol can help a person feel more relaxed or less anxious. More alcohol causes greater changes in the brain, resulting in intoxication. What happens if alcohol is consumed in small amounts?

  7. When large amounts of alcohol are consumed in a short period of time, alcohol poisoning can result. Alcohol poisoning is exactly what it sounds like — the body has become poisoned by large amounts of alcohol. Violent vomiting is usually the first symptom of alcohol poisoning. Extreme sleepiness, unconsciousness, difficulty breathing, dangerously low blood sugar, seizures, and even death may result. What happens if alcohol is consumed in large amounts?

  8. Experimentation with alcohol during the teen years is common. Some reasons that teens use alcohol and other drugs are: • curiosity • to feel good, reduce stress, and relax • to fit in • to feel older • Alcohol seems harmless to many teens. Why Do Teens Drink?

  9. Although it's illegal to buy alcohol in Canada until the age of 19, most teens can get access to it. It's therefore up to you to make a decision about drinking. In addition to the possibility of becoming addicted, there are some downsides to drinking: Why Shouldn't Teens Drink?

  10. Teens who drink put themselves at risk for obvious problems with the law (it's illegal; you can get arrested). Teens who drink are also more likely to get into fights and commit crimes than those who don't. People who drink regularly also often have problems with school. Drinking can damage a student's ability to study well and get decent grades, as well as affect sports performance (the coordination). What is the punishment for drinking?

  11. The impression is that drinking is cool, but the nervous system changes that come from drinking alcohol can make people do stupid or embarrassing things, like throwing up or peeing on themselves. Drinking also gives people bad breath, and no one enjoys a hangover. How can drinking make someone look reallysilly?

  12. Teens who drink are more likely to be sexually active and to have unsafe, unprotected sex. Resulting pregnancies and sexually transmitted diseases can change — or even end — lives. The risk of injuring yourself, maybe even fatally, is higher when you're under the influence, too. One half of all drowning deaths among teen guys are related to alcohol use. Use of alcohol greatly increases the chance that a teen will be involved in a car crash, homicide, or suicide. Teen drinkers are more likely to gain a lot of weight or have health problems, too. One study by the University of Washington found that people who regularly had five or more drinks in a row starting at age 13 were much more likely to be overweight or have high blood pressure by age 24 than their nondrinking peers. People who continue drinking heavily well into adulthood risk damaging their organs, such as the liver, heart, and brain. How can Alcohol put your health at risk?

  13. Alcohol is a product that has provided a variety of functions for people throughout all history. From the earliest times to the present, alcohol has played an important role in religion and worship. In the past, alcoholic beverages have been used as medical, served as sources of needed nutrients and have been widely used for their medicinal and sterile. The role of such beverages as thirst quenchers is obvious and they play an important role in enhancing the enjoyment and quality of life. They can be a social lubricant, can facilitate relaxation, can provide pharmacological pleasure, and can increase the pleasure of eating. Thus, while a minority of drinkers has always misused alcohol, it has proved to be beneficial to some. What is the origin and the history of Alcohol?

  14. What are some risk-factors and protective factors associated with Alcohol?

  15. There are several factors, which contribute to someone becoming alcohol dependent or abuse alcohol. • Alcohol dependence can run in families. In general, if caregivers depend on alcohol, their children are four times more likely to develop dependence too. It’s partly down to your genes, but is also influenced by your family’s attitudes to alcohol. • Stressful events, such as grief or losing a job, can also trigger heavy drinking, which can then lead to alcohol dependence. • People who are alcohol dependent have higher rates of other psychiatric disorders than people who do not depend on alcohol. This may include depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorder and drug misuse. Factors as to why someone would be addicted to alcohol?

  16. Be unable to limit the amount of alcohol you drink • Feel a strong need to drink • Develop a tolerance to alcohol so that you need more to feel its effects • Drink alone or hide your drinking • Experience physical withdrawal symptoms when you don’t drink, such as nausea, sweating and shaking • You don’t remember conversations or commitments • Make a habit of having drinks at certain times • Keep alcohol in places at home, at work or in your car • Gulp drinks, order doubles or become drunk intentionally to feel good • Have legal problems or problems with relationships, employment or finances due to drinking • Lose interest in activities and hobbies that used to interest you Signs and symptoms of someone who is under the influence of alcohol?

  17. Health care professionals diagnose alcoholism through examination. There is no one test therefore; they use screening tools, online or other tests. Health-care professionals diagnose alcohol abuse by gathering medical, family, and mental-health information. How do health care professionals diagnose an alcohol abuse problem?

  18. A woman who drinks alcohol while she is pregnant may harm her developing baby (fetus). Alcohol can pass from the mother’s blood into the baby's blood. It can damage and affect the growth of the baby's cells. Brain and spinal cord cells are most likely to have damage. This is called Fetal alcohol spectrum disorder or FASD. Alcohol can effect facial features, growth problems, learning and behavioral problems, birth defects and problems feeding as a newborn. What is the impact of Alcoholism on pregnancy?

  19. Alcohol is absorbed from the stomach and small intestine by diffusion. Most absorption occurs from the small intestine due to its large surface area and rich blood supply. The rate of absorption varies with the emptying time of the stomach. Generally, the higher the alcohol concentration of the beverage, the faster the rate of absorption. • Alcohol is eliminated from the body by elimination and absorption from food. How is alcohol administered and later eliminated from the body?

  20. Alcohol affects the brain by changing levels of neurotransmitters. Neurotransmitters are chemical messengers that transmit the signals throughout the body that control thought processes, behavior and emotion. How alcohol impacts the functioning of the brain and body?

  21. Alcohol is one of the leading causes of death. • The chart below highlights a pattern of increased alcohol use and binge drinking among Canadian students from Grades 7-12. What are the patterns of use for alcohol for grades 7-12?

  22. Alcohol withdrawal symptoms can begin as early as two hours after the last drink, this can go on for weeks. Withdrawal can range from mild anxiety and shakiness to severe complications, such as seizures and delirium tremens (also called DTs). The death rate from DTs -- which are characterized by confusion, rapid heartbeat, and fever -- is estimated to range from 1% to 5%. What are symptoms of alcohol withdrawal?

They offer counseling, day programs, group programs, family support, interventions and helpful information to help individuals overcome their addiction to alcohol. • Drug and Alcohol Hotline is 1-800-565-8603. This is where people can call to admit or discuss their addiction and also ask for information about how and where they can get help for their addiction to alcohol.

  27. It depends on a persons weight, gender, age or time passes since last drink? BAC/Hours until Zero Chart How long does alcohol affect your body?

  28. Alcohol abuse can lead to overdose. • Underage drinkers may be at particular risk for alcohol overdose. Research shows that people under age 20 typically drink about 5 drinks at one time. Drinking such a large quantity of alcohol can overwhelm the body’s ability to break down and clear alcohol from the bloodstream. • As BAC increases, so do alcohol’s effects—as well as the risk for harm. Even small increases in BAC can decrease coordination, make a person feel sick, and cloud judgment. This can lead to injury from falls or car crashes, leave one vulnerable to sexual assault or other acts of violence, and increase the risk for unprotected or unintended sex. When BACs go even higher, amnesia (or blackouts) can occur. How is alcohol abuse dangerous?
