I'm a teenager and I'm worried about the effects of drinking and smoking. What are some of the health risks of drinking and smoking?

The most common health risks associated with drinking alcohol include increased risk of cancer, liver disease, heart disease, stroke, and various forms of mental health problems such as depression and anxiety. Additionally, excessive drinking can lead to poor nutrition, impaired judgment, and risky behavior. Smoking is also associated with an increased risk for many serious diseases, including lung cancer, coronary artery disease, COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease), and other respiratory illnesses.
