10. Alcohol

As you can imagine, alcohol is naturally irritating to our bodies. When we are talking about alcohol we are taking about excessive alcohol, of course. One drink is fine, but more than that and you are pushing it. Having just three drinks allows bacteria to pass through the intestinal lining, which leads to irritation and inflammation.

Although small amounts of alcohol have been linked to lower risks of certain health conditions, such as Alzheimer’s and heart disease. Once you get past those two drinks per day, you begin a love affair with inflammation that no one wants to be a part of.
