I mean this is just dumb. Like I’m sorry but this would happen with basically every medicine or drug. They aren’t made to be taken at higher doses than advised.

(Imagine you took 8 liters of beer per day for 3 days, you’d be half dead too.)

Moderation people…

You haven't seen the ridiculous quantities that some alcoholics will consume

Tolerance is a different beast. But 8 liters of beer is ridiculous.

Humans drink 2-3 liters a day. Of water.

8 liters is like average for Oktoberfest visitors

Paramedic here, once brought someone in who ended up having a blood alcohol of .64. Dude got to sober up in the ICU.

On the medical board exams, you get questions talking about patients that drink pints or liters of liquor every day and you're expected to know all the various health problems that come with alcohol use disorder.
