The effects of alcohol on the mind are largely a result of the drinker's "alcohol expectancies." We tend to react to alcohol in terms of what we think it does to us. People who falsely believe they are consuming alcohol will act intoxicated!

The effects of alcohol on the body depend on how much and how often we drink. Consuming alcohol regularly and in moderation is associated with better health and greater longevity than is either abstaining from alcohol or abusing it.
