Drinking alcohol creates a negative effect on the body. This is because of the components used to create alcohol - be it beer, whisky, rum, vodka or any other type of drink. When a person drinks alcohol, it makes him/her unstable - walking difficulty, blabbering, headache are some of the effects it has on the body.
