For Alcohol Awareness Month, we're spreading awareness about alcohol's effects on your health and strategies to help you reduce or stop drinking alcohol.
When you drink alcohol, it affects all parts of your body, including:
· Increasing your risk of stroke by raising blood pressure
· Making you more susceptible to infection by weakening the immune system
· Worsening your existing health conditions, such as high blood pressure, heart disease, or liver disease
Additionally, alcohol consumption is the third leading preventable cause of breast, colon, and other cancers.
