How does tolerance affect a drinker’s body

vlabodo [156]

Answer:

The term tolerance can be referred to as a reduction in brain sensitivity to alcohol consumption following an alcohol exposure over a long period of time. This implies that in the body of the drinker, the initial effect of the alcohol is usually greater than effect experienced based on repeated use or consumption of the alcohol. In a clearer term, tolerance affect the body of the drinker less with continuous or increase consumption of the same amount of alcohol over a considerable period of time.
