Those who consume alcohol on a consistent basis may develop a tolerance to the intoxicating levels thus enabling them to consume more than the average drinker. While they continue to function in a normal capacity, their physical condition may appear normal to others and go unnoticed until they start exhibiting ailments indicative of deterioration of the body moreover a compromised liver [liver damage or alcoholic hepatitis].
