In simple terms arteriosclerosis.  That's essentially when the walls of arteries start to become thick and harden, most commonly due to older age-- but it can also start to build up due to fats and cholesterol. Naturally, when something becomes hard and thick, it looses it's elasticity, so your answer would be arteriosclerosis.

Arteriosclerosis is described as a cardiac disorder that results in hardening of the arterial walls. This can affect elasticity, and in turn blood circulation and blood pressure. The illness is different from Atherosclerosis, as Atherosclerosis is a buildup of debris in the artery (Plaques forming from fat deposits, platelets, clotting, etc..) Many times though Arteriosclerosis and Atherosclerosis work in tandem to worsen cardiovascular health, greatly increasing chances of Aneurysms, Emboli (Traveling clots), or Thrombi (stationary clots)

When do drinkers begin to lose judgment and self-control?
Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

Every organism is different so every alcohol consumption is different. There are many factors that have impact on one’s state of mind while drinking. How often the person drinks, how much food they ate, how many hours of sleep they had that night…

0.10 - 0. 12 BAC ( blood alcohol concentration ) -- at this point a person is significantly impaired, especially their motor coordination and loss of a good judgement. A person speaks unclearly, their vision and hearing is impaired. A person is not able to drive while having this BAC as it is illegal.

Biologically, it takes <em>thirty minutes</em> for the organism to feel effects of alcohol.

Explanation:

That’s the thing about alcohol, it gives you a careless, relaxing feeling. It all feels like that at first. Shortly after, it’s followed by sleepy feeling, slower reflexes. The mechanism is still pretty unknown. Alcohol causes your brain to release<em> dopamine in nucleus acummbens</em>, a tiny part of the brain that controls your pleasures.

In the mornings, the leftovers of alcohol in our system causes our organism to be <em>nervous</em>, our body parts to <em>tremble</em>, we feel <em>anxious</em>, sometimes even <em>black out</em>. Our heart beats are significantly <em>faster.</em>

On the psychological plan, blackouts will be exchanged for a total eclipse of our memory. People who are blackout drunk are more likely to injure themselves. They have also been known to walk home, do all the things they would normally do — eat, take a shower, change their clothes… They do not remember these behaviors because their brain does’t<em> convert those events into memory</em>. Once the person is sober, the brain will begin to process memories again.

To black out does not necessarily mean to become unconscious, like to fall asleep. It’s not rare that people often continue to interact with other people, even continue to drink. There is also a term that some people might experience — “brownouts.” Blackout is the failure to remember several hours that take place before the person’s blood alcohol content drops, a brownout involves failing to remember some events but not every event. A person who experiences a brownout may remember an event when triggered about that certain event.

The relationship between self-control and alcohol indicates that both internal and external self-control abilities were significantly changed after alcohol consumption.

Self-control is applied differentially. Not everyone reacts the same. For example, college students naturally try to control their alcohol consumption or the unwanted consequences related to drinking, while the ones taking a break from the exams are more likely to put all the obligations aside and enjoy while they have free time therefor they will consume more than the students with upcoming exams.  under influence of alcohol are usually fearless, they show their not-so-moral side, the feeling of shame is nonexistent in that state of mind, and they feel like they’re on the top of the world! People who blackout may decide to drive themselves home, destroy things, spend too much money, or choose other risky behaviors.
