What is alcohol?
Alcohol is a chemical compound that contains carbon, hydrogen, oxygen and nitrogen. It consists of one or more molecules of these elements bonded together in some way. Alcohols are classified into three main groups: ethyl (CH 3 CH 2 )nanoalcohol (C 6 H 12 NO) and non-ethyl alcohols such as methanol (CH 4 ). Ethanol is a colorless liquid at room temperature. It dissolves easily in water and other liquids. Non-ethanol alcohols are not soluble in water and must be mixed with it before they will dissolve completely. When ethanol is consumed, it causes the liver to produce acetaldehyde which is toxic to cells. Acetaldehyde damages DNA, proteins and lipids causing cell death and tissue damage.
How does alcohol affect my body?
The effects of alcohol depend on many factors including the amount ingested, the person’s age, gender and health status. The most common side effect of alcohol consumption is intoxication. Another possible side effect is liver damage. Liver damage may occur within hours or days after consuming large amounts of alcohol. A small percentage of people develop cirrhosis (a condition where scarring occurs inside the liver). Depending on the amount and strength of alcohol, vomiting, hangovers and impaired judgement can occur. Alcohol has also been found to be a factor in sexually transmitted diseases, motor vehicle accidents, violence, suicide and various forms of cancer. More than 2.5 million people are killed by alcohol each year, which is more than the number killed by AIDS or tuberculosis.
Why does alcohol make me poop immediately?
The most common side effect of alcohol is that it can cause nausea and vomiting. Another possible side effect is diarrhea. Alcohol irritates the lining of the stomach and intestines. It causes muscle contractions, which increases the speed in which food moves through the intestines. The increase in food movement through the intestines helps various bacteria in the intestines to break down undigested food into gases and waste more quickly. Alcohol loosens the valve between the small and large intestines, which allows bacteria to leak into the large intestine faster. The leaking valve also allows larger amounts of air into the intestines. This combination of bacteria and air in the intestines causes gaseous buildup and flatulence.
What is alcohol pooping?
Alcoholic bowel syndrome (ABS) or Alcoholic Pooping Syndrome (APS) are the terms used when a person has loose bowels after drinking alcohol. The Syndrome is usually caused by the person having consumed a lot of alcohol. It is possible that the Syndrome can also be caused by your body becoming accustomed to the regular consumption of alcohol over a long period of time. This syndrome is more common in women than in men. It may occur in people who abuse alcohol but it can also appear in people who consume lesser amounts of alcohol on a regular basis.
Most people experience loose bowels after drinking small or moderate amounts of alcohol. This can be caused by the alcohol irritating the stomach and intestines or it can be an allergic reaction. A small number of people experience diarrhea when they drink even small amounts of alcohol.
This can be caused by a sensitivity to alcohol or by what the person has eaten before or while they are drinking.
Other factors that may affect how alcohol bowel syndrome affects a person include their age, general health, what food they consume while drinking and any drugs that they may be taking.
A person with the alcohol bowel syndrome will experience loose bowels after drinking a small amount of alcohol. This can range from diarrhea to complete uncontrollable bowel movements. The bowel movements tend to become looser the more alcohol you consume.
They may even become bloody if the person drinks enough.
The alcohol bowel syndrome is different in men and women and also tends to vary with age. It can be a minor irritation or a very serious condition depending on the circumstances.
In men, the alcohol bowel syndrome can cause a decrease in testosterone levels, which causes the testes to shrink. This leads to low testosterone levels, which in turn can lead to erectile dysfunction and a decrease in fertility.
The alcohol bowel syndrome in men can also cause an enlarged prostate gland. The prostate is a gland in males that surrounds the urethra. Enlargement of this gland can lead to difficulty urinating (known as urinary retention).
Enlargement of the prostate can cause urination to become painful. If the enlargement is severe, it can cause difficulty starting the flow of urine (known as blockage). If this blockage becomes complete and urine backs up in the kidneys, it can cause severe pain and may lead to a life-threatening kidney infection (known as a pyelonephritis).
In men, alcohol can also damage the components that produce and release seminal fluid. Alcohol can cause a drastic increase in the amount of seminal fluid. It can also cause it to become thick and sticky.
In women, alcohol can cause an increase in the production of estrogen, which leads to an increase in the size of the cells in the vaginal walls. Alcohol decreases the production of androgens, which causes the vaginal walls to thin out and become dry (known as atrophic vaginitis).
A woman who drinks large amounts of alcohol may experience temporary infertility after she stops drinking. This is due to the toxic effects that alcohol has on her ovaries.
Another effect of the alcohol bowel syndrome in women is that it can cause the uterus to contract, which may cause painful periods. It can also lead to a decrease in fertility.
Continued drinking can also lead to severe complications such as alcoholic hepatitis, which can cause permanent liver damage and death.
Alcohol also has toxic effects on the pancreas, heart, and central nervous system. It can also cause hormonal imbalances in both men and women.
The alcohol bowel syndrome is a serious condition for anyone who drinks alcohol excessively. It can cause severe pain and other complications that require medical attention. If you are concerned about your bowel movements after drinking you should consult a physician immediately.

Prologue
You awaken to a splitting headache and retch when the smell of stale beer and vomit come to your nostrils. You open your eyes and blink in confusion.
Where the hell are you?
You try to recall what happened last night. You remember going out drinking with your friends at the nightclub. You shout for joy when your favorite band came on stage and you jumped up and screamed at the top of your lungs when they played your favorite song.
But then suddenly things got a little fuzzy after that. You don’t know what happened after that. You look around and realize that you are in a small room with a few guys who are passed out like you were.
