structures and

an organism that protectsagainst disease

Effects of alcohol on the

Immune System

Reduces the functions of the immune

system

Increases risk of developing respiratoryinfections, tuberculosis, certain cancers

and other illnesses

Reduces the number of infection-fightingcells

Decreases the ability to fight pathogensTin


8/45

Alcohol will prevent nutrients from feedingyour immune system

Three or more drinks a night is a significantly

different story. If an individual drinks enoughalcohol to get impaired or drunk, it is also

enough to cause weaknesses in the immune

system. When you drink enough to get drunk,you are also producing an nutrition

deficiency.

gases, hormones, blood cells,etc. to and from cells in the

body to help fight diseases,

stabilize body temperatureand to maintain homeostasis.

THE URINARY SYSTEM

The urinary system is consisting of organs,tubes, muscles and nerves that create store

and carry urine. It includes the kidneys,

bladder, sphincter muscles and urethra. Thekidneys filter water and waste from the blood,

which forms urine. From the kidneys, urine

moves through tiny tubes called ureters to the

bladder, where it is eliminated from the body.

The urine exits through the urethra.

Jean


16/45

A healthy urinary system can hold up to twocups of urine comfortably for two to five

hours.

Drinking alcohol (and caffeine) cause morefrequent urination, however, because they act

as diuretics.

Jean


17/45

THE EFFECTS

Changes in the structure and function of thekidneys

Impairment in their ability to regulate the

volume and composition of fluid Failure of bladder nerves; keeping them from

signalling to the brain when the bladder is full

Dehydration Liver Cancer

URINARY SYSTEM DISEASES

CAUSED BY ALCOHOL

Alcoholic liver disease

Long term and excessive consumption ofalcohol can cause liver disease Alcoholic liverdisease may cause death.

Nephritis

Alcohol causes inflammation of the kidneys,

commonly known as nephritis. Chronicnephritis can lead to kidney failure, whichcauses an excess build-up of fluid in the bodyand ultimately death.

Jean


19/45

Indirect Kidney DiseaseAlcohol also causes kidney failure indirectly, by

contributing to liver disease. Liver disease will

ultimately cause kidney failure.

Cystitis

Inflammation of the bladder is also common. This

is known as cystitis. Cystitis is also known as a

bladder infection, though there may not bebacteria present.

Jean


20/45

Urinary Tract Infection (UTI) Both chronic and acute cystitis can lead to

urinary tract inflammation or infection.

Jean


21/45

THE SOLUTIONS

Drink most of your fluids during the day and limitdrinking after dinner to reduce nighttimeurination problems.

Reduce alcohol consumption by setting a

drinking goal, such as no more than twoalcoholic drinks a day, drinking slowly with atleast an hour break between drinks, and eatingwhile drinking to slow the alcohol absorption inyour bloodstream.

If you suspect you may have a drinking problem,talk to your doctor about enrolling in an alcoholtreatment program.

EFFECTS OF ALCOHOHOL IN THE

SKELETAL SYSTEM


23/45

Jean


24/45

THE SKELETAL SYSTEM

The skeletal system consists of hundreds ofbones, ranging in size from the very large leg

bones to the tiny bones deep inside the ears.

Bone health is as vital as the health of theheart or any other organ. Nutritional

deficiencies can weaken a skeletal system,

resulting in pain, decreased mobility and

quality of life.

Jean


25/45

Deficiencies may be caused by poor foodchoices, lack of food, or certain drugs, and

excessive consumption of alcohol.

Jean


26/45

Alcohol interferes with many body functionsand lowers formation of bone cells. Bones

need new cell production and good blood

circulation to remain healthy. When the bonesdo not get this nutrition and support they

become fragile and may develop skeletal

diseases.

Jean


27/45

THE MAIN EFFECTS

Weakens the bones Poor absorption of calcium

Effects of Alcohol on the

Reproductive System

Females may have delay on their first day ofmenstrual cycle, irregular periods, and

testes and development of muscle mass.

On Pregnant women, fetal alcohol syndrome
