Todd, Alcohol is not bad for you. You may well be more intolerant to alcohol. Asian people have low intolerance due to the way they dealt with purifying water over the centuries (they used tea, the west used alcohol).
Drinking alcohol to excess on the otherhand is bad for you. Your body tells you it is bad for you: You puke, hangover, kidneys/liver can ache (never take paracetamol after drinking large amounts to cure hangover. Paracetamol has a bad effect on the liver, which is having a difficult enough time dealing with the alcohol). At this point I would like to point out that excessive drinking of Water can kill you. Somebody on a stupid diet ended up doing this to themselves. Completely mad. Just litres of water. Like most things, doing them to excess will usually cause complications, but certain things in small quantities are good for you. Take vitamins and minerals. Eat too many of them in one go and watch your body throw a loopy.
