I've never been drunk and never plan to be, but I do have an occational drink. Actually, one or two beers or glasses of red wine a day are good for you. Beer does not have that much sugar, and red wine has many health benefits. It can help prevent heart decease, diabetes and obesity. If you are on a strict diet and you count the calories in your drink, the red wine will actually help you lose weight. Now, if you cross the line and have more than one or two drinks a day, not only do you wipe out the benefits, but you also do harm to your system and add unwanted calories that will make you fat.
