The medulla is the part of your brain that controls basic survival functions such as breathing and heartbeat. When you've consumed so much alcohol that the medulla is affected, your brain's ability to control respiration and heart rate is severely diminished. Your heart rate can drop and breathing cease, causing death, at blood alcohol levels as low as .30%.
Alcohol can exacerbate many of the medical conditions that are common in older people, including high blood pressure and ulcers, more serious.
Over time, excessive alcohol use can lead to the development of chronic diseases, neurological impairments and social problems. These include but are not limited to: Neurological problems, including dementia, stroke and neuropathy.
Women who drink more than one alcoholic drink per day have increased risk of high blood pressure, stroke, violence, suicide, and certain types of cancer.
