The individual is harmed as the liver is damaged in the process of endeavouring to metabolize alcohol leading to diseases of the liver. Alochol also impairs your immune system making it possibe for you to easily fall sick more often than usual. At times these effects may occur in months or years, and if accumulated they reduce overall health, and predispose to long-term diseases.
