What changes in the processes of digestion in the stomach does alcohol cause?

Negative effect on the stomach – the development of a large number of gastric ulcers and gastritis. Under the influence of alcohol, more gastric juice is produced, which contains a more concentrated solution of hydrochloric acid, namely, it destroys the walls of the stomach. Mucus is also secreted, but with a smaller amount of the enzyme pepsin, it is this enzyme that supports the functioning of the intestines and the digestive system. In its absence, the secretion of the pancreas changes. From alcohol abuse, pancreatitis and cirrhosis of the liver can develop.
