Abstract

the brain. It has an array of blood vessels and nerves located in the brain, associated with effective learning. Alcohol enters your blood stream right after consumption and is quickly carried around the body. At first, it makes one feel relaxed, but that feeling is followed by drowsiness or confusion. This is because of alterations to one's brain chemistry. The Effects of Alcohol on the Brain Over time, alcohol has been consumed by people across ages in different institution of learning as it is perceived to have positive effect on the brain and enhance the speed of its operations. It is however worthy of note that alcohol exert more negative effects than positive as far as academic achievement of the learner is concern ranging from dizziness, dousing off, anger, unnecessary anxiety, etc. When the student continues in the act of alcohol consumption, such student becomes addicted with time. The origin of the word 'addiction' is from the Latin for 'bound to'. Think about that. Being addicted to alcohol means you are bound to it, one in the same. Alcohol has become part of you. Making matters worse, heavy and/or persistent drinking also makes alcohol a part of your brain, and it's not good. This is especially true when considering how prevalent alcohol use, and abuse, is in Nigeria.
