Can you donate a liver if you drink ???!


Question:

Can you donate a liver if you drink ???

I was listening to some doner speak during my health class. He told us that we should donate our livers to needy people. I was wondering can I donate if because I am a drinker. I am no alcoholic but I do enjoy a beer or drink at clubs/bars.


Answers:

As long as your not sick with hepatitis or other liver disease, you can donate your liver.The liver is the only organ besides skin that rejuvenates or heals itself.Mild to moderate drinking does not damage your liver as long as there are not other factors such as liver disease present.
