Buddy, if that was a thing, any frat boy who got hammered would be dead of sepsis or peritonitis within 24 hours. Bacteria do not pass through the intestinal walls, they are too big.

I found a lot of problems with this presentation but don't feel like writing a wall o text. The bottom line is that all drugs, alcohol included, are targeted poisons and all have potentially unpleasant side effects. Alcohol can be a great social lubricant, everybody in the room taking on a warm glow and feeling they're charming and so is everyone else. It can also be habit forming and lethal. Approach with caution.
