ACTION OF ALCOHOL ON INTERNAL ORGANS.
Then the valves lose their suppleness and what is termed valvular The quality of the membraneous structures which cover and line the heart changes and are thickened, become cartilaginous or calcareous. -------------------------- Consumption of alcohol greatly affects the heart. Alcohol weakens the heart. During severe winter seasons, the suddenly fatal congestions of lungs easily affects an alcoholic.
When subjected to the effects of a rapid variation in atmospheric temperature, they get readily congested. ------------------------ Alcohol relaxes the vessels of the lungs easily as they are most exposed to the fluctuations of heat and cold. Congestion of the lungs. This results in the body losing its power as if it were being run out of blood gradually. Albumin from the blood easily passes through their membranes.
The minute structures in them go through fatty modification. The vessels of Kidneys lose elasticity and power of contraction. ---------------------------- The Kidneys also suffer due to the excessive consumption of alcohol. How the Kidneys deteriorate.
The structure of the liver may be charged with fatty cells and undergo what is technically designated 'fatty liver'. Then the lower parts of the alcoholic becomes dropsical owing to the obstruction offered to the returning blood by the veins. This follows contraction of membrane and shrinking of the whole organ in its cellular parts. The liver becomes large due to the dilatation of its vessels, the surcharge of fluid matter and the thickening of tissue.
The minute membranous or capsular structure of the liver gets affected, preventing proper dialysis and free secretion. The liver of an alcoholic is never free from the influence of alcohol and it is too often saturated with it. It is practically the same in respect to alcohol. In instances of poisoning by various poisonous compounds, we analyse liver as if it were the central depot of the foreign matter.
Normally, the liver has the capacity to hold active substances in its cellular parts. The organ which most frequently undergoes structural changes from alcohol, is the liver. ---------------------------- The organic deteriorations caused by the continued use of alcohol are often of a fatal character. How the liver gets affected.
The disastrous forms of confirmed indigestion originate by this practice. Thus there is engendered a permanent disorder which is called dyspepsia. This results in a loathing for food and is teased with a craving for more drink. A condition marked by the sense of nausea emptiness, prostration and distention will always be faced by an alcoholic. ---------------------- The action of alcohol on the stomach is extremely dangerous that it becomes unable to produce the natural digestive fluid in sufficient quantity and also fails to absorb the food which it may imperfectly digest.
