Alcohol is a psychoactive substance that has a depressant effect on the central nervous system. It is found in various beverages, including beer, wine, and spirits. When consumed, alcohol can alter mood, behavior, and cognitive functioning. It is often used socially and culturally for its intoxicating effects. However, excessive consumption of alcohol can lead to a range of health issues, including liver disease, addiction, and impaired mental and physical functioning.
