Engish.. YJ.. english!!!! hehehe. Talk to ya..Good post sage...
Also alcohol damages the liver and causes it to put thin, loose wraps on cholesterol, eventually these wraps will come off before the cholesterol can be deposited safetly and will back up and condense on the walls of arteries and over time will lead to cardio vascular disease, heart attack etc. These LDL cholesterol's are bad for the body.
there's sort of the scientific backing i was looking for..that's good info YJ - but thats not all...
alcohol substantially increases estrogen, and decreases testosterone
and
slows down protein synthesis 20%
Water (dehydration, over-hydration), sodium (water retention, but raises blood pressure, I think), E/C (requires little explanation, I think), and...oh yes, juice.What other the substances are we aware of that are great in moderation but bad when abused?
Sodium doesn't necessarily raise blood pressure, but is not good for those that already have high blood pressure. If you drink enough water and balance with potassium you will be fine, the two work together to pump water in and out of cells (I think that's the right explanation)Originally posted by Sean

Im not sure I ever had it brother!YJ I think you've finally lost it lol
How much or how little aren't the questions. The question is how optimally healthy do you want your body/lifestyle to be? If alcohol consumption is important to you then it's a tradeoff, no biggie. Enjoy. Otherwise, don't drink and know you're that much ahead.whats everyones thoughts on drinking beer/liqour when trying to bulk or cut....or in general for that matter

ha...you gots to stop smoking them bowls my friend. ive said my views on beer/alchohol previously, however like to add that beer isnt good tasting for me. Never enjoyed the taste of most beer w/ few exception like fat tire and strongbow (more an ale/cider than beer). Nothing to brag about, but i prefer "girly" drinks and shot whenever i do have a few with the boys or females...(ie. LIT, fruity martinis and daquiris, buttery nipple,etc) Might be the only dude in the entire bar who orders a malibu with DIET coke.
Im not sure I ever had it brother!
