Underage Drinking?
Question by Me.: Underage drinking?
I am 14 years old and a freshman in high school. I’ve never been drunk before (I weigh about 170 pounds so maybe that’s why?) but every 3-4 weeks I have a shot of alcohol with my friends.
Is this bad? I know ethically it is but is it bad for my body as well?

Answer by Mary Kontrarry

Gastritis:
Is kinda like the same concept of pancreas in my book. Alcohol causes inflammation by leaking the digestive juice which have enzyme on it. The lining though., but for both its more like reduce it not completely be destroy by the enzyme. The lining gets destroy more quicker then it heals.
Brain Damage:
Long-term alcohol abuse has been shown to literally shrink the region of the brain associated with learning and memory in several brain imaging studies
