  • Alcohol can potentially damage every organ in your body, as it is absorbed directly into your bloodstream and can increase your risk for a variety of life-threatening diseases, including cancer.
  • "Blackouts", are not diagnostic of alcohol dependence; they are memory lapses caused by heavy drinking, where the individual does not pass out, but appears to act relatively normal during drinking.
  • Blackouts most likely occur because the function of the hippocampus, the part of the brain that registers memory, is depressed by alcohol; whether these memories do not get registered or whether they become registered but cannot be retrieved, have not been determined.
  • Alcohol's general depressant effects can prolong the duration of periods of apnea, worsening any preexisting Obstructive Sleep Apnea.
