Alcohol is not a "poison", amirite?

It is classified as a group 1 carcinogen…. It's also one of the leading causes of preventable deaths year after year in the US. We haven't even begin discussing the ways it poisons people mentally, spiritually and emotionally.

One big distinction is that alcohol harms you even in small amounts, whereas water and sugar don't.

You'd probably be okay if you pace yourself enough. (like maybe over a few days)

You would be guaranteed to be ok (in terms of negative effects of alcohol) if you didn't drink it at all

Then what's alcohol poisoning ? Isn't that the equivalent to over dosing since you wanna call it a drug? No one ever said alcohol did something positive for them.

I mean I think OP is wrong but our bodies definitely can consume it and have evolved to process it

You can also consume and process drywall and wood chips but you're putting your body under distress. There's a growing body of research that suggests that even small amounts of alcohol are harmful.
