Question: What harms your liver and/or kidneys more!?
Hard liquor or beer!? I've been drinking pretty steadily for most of '08 and am just wondering if I've done any permanent damage yet!? I'll probably drink 3 beers in a day or 4 at most!. And for liquor about 2 shots of pure grain alcohol!. Its usually an either or thing never together!.!.!. more so the liquor because its not full of empty calories and hits you faster without filling you up!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Answers:
Grain alcohol!? Are you serious!?
If you ever watched a patient die of liver failure in the hospital you might reconsider your addressing the possibility you may need to seek professional support!.
A shot of hard liquor and and a beer have approximately the same alcohol content!.
If you already have kidney problems, as in kidney failure, Nephrologists (kidney doctors) recommend the hard liquor due to the fluid restrictions necessary for patients with kidney failure!.
Liquor is a killer to your liver although it is not good for any of your organs,
I know there is still some research on this and no conclusions yet but some literature supports that supplementing your diet with lecithen if you drink alcohol can help protect your liver!.
I do not know the recommended dosage but you may be able to research that on line!.
This is controversial!. Also the fact that you may be able to prolong heallth with dietary supplements while becoming an alcholic does not in my mind justify the lifestyle of being a drunk!.
Another dietary supplement that alternative medicine recommends to promote liver health is an herb named Milk Thistle!.
However traditional western medicine disagrees!.

Firstly, your body develops a tolerance for alcohol relatively quickly, so that the more you drink the more you need to drink in order to experience the same effects!. The liver becomes adept at dealing with the alcohol because it manufactures more of the enzymes necessary to break down the ethyl alcohol and detoxify it!. However, whilst the liver becomes more efficient in the short term, in the long term cellular damage occurs, eventually leading, in serious cases, to cirrhosis (scarring) of the liver!.
Though alcohol affects every organ of the body, it's most dramatic impact is upon the liver!.
Alcohol enlarges the kidneys, alters hormone functions, and increases the risk of kidney failure!.

A beer and a shot of liquor have the same amount of alcohol basically, so they are equally bad for your liver and kidneys!. Drinking more than once a week for an extended period of time will cause damage to your liver relatively quickly!.
