Alcohol directly affects brain chemistry by altering levels of neurotransmitters â the chemical messengers that transmit the signals throughout the body that control thought processes, behavior and emotion.

Alcohol suppresses the release of glutamate, resulting in a slowdown along your brainâs highways.
