What are least three organs that can be affected by alcohol use?

1. Liver: Alcohol can cause inflammation of the liver, leading to alcoholic liver disease. This can range from mild fatty liver to severe cirrhosis, which can lead to liver failure and death.

2. Brain: Alcohol can have several effects on the brain. Acute alcohol intoxication can impair cognitive function, coordination, and judgment. Chronic alcohol use can cause long-term damage to brain structures and function, leading to memory loss, dementia, and other neurological problems.

3. Heart: Alcohol can increase the risk of developing cardiovascular diseases such as high blood pressure, heart failure, and stroke. Excessive alcohol intake can weaken the heart muscle and lead to irregular heartbeats (arrhythmias).
