I'll take that 100$ bet on Alcohol being poison. Alcohol literally breaks down into Acetaldehyde. Acetaldehyde causes DNA damage, cancer, liver damage. Yes, there are other causes of alcohol addiction (stress, anxiety, etc..). But also Alcohol changes our response to those underlying symptoms, that can then become the problem. ( I start drinking to reduce stress -> alcohol causes a physical reaction in the mind/body to increase stress -> I drink more alcohol to reduce more stress).
