Alcohol is a depresent (will put you to sleep and slow your reflexes). Also will dehydrate you (all a hangover is essentially is lack of water in your system). Also hurts your liver.

Alcohol, when administered to the body through drinking it, is digested in your stomach and enters your blood stream. That's how you get intoxicated.
