alcohol use and side effects.

Hey there fellow,s:
My question is, can the use of alcohol increase the risks of side effects during a cycle?
I am talking of moderate use, lets say every weekend a few drinks.
Here is a article that suggest that it can.
Alcohol and steroids...Not good
Absorption of alcohol into the bloodstream can have a major effect on the anabolic steroid user. As a rule alcohol breaks down solids such as tissues and compounds. The anabolic steroid molecule is transformed from a testosterone molecule to an estrogen. Estrogen quickly aromatizes in the system and speeds along some of the most feared side effects of steroid use. Increased mood swings, gynomastia( aka man boobs), and severley shrunken testicles can all result from the use of these two substances.
In addition oral ananbolic steroids are activated through the first pass throught the human liver, then filtered through the blood stream to nourish the muscular tissue. this breaking down process is roughly equivalent to consuming a 6 pack of light beer first thing in the morning, daily, on your liver. If you then drink a six pack or what ever later you are seroiously taxing your liver. Subcutaneous or injectable steroids do not pass through the liver and are less dangerous to use with alcohol but still not recommended.

Thanks:unsure:

I don't know what effects alcohol with steroids will have, but the added liver stress can't be good.

Doctari told me that his liver values were still 7 times better than that of an alcoholic after he used 100mg anapolon per day.

100 freaken mg anadrol a day and his liver was still 7 times better then an alcoholic! Damn, we all know that anadrol is super toxic, so alcohol must be the mother of all toxicity! The doomsday of toxicity to the liver! Glad i dont consume alcohol!

I for one can tell you booze does have an effect.

Not only does it make you weaker it also interferes with the muscle development.

Drinking while cycling makes the sides worse.

Boozing makes alot of people more aggressive already .
Not to mention the morning after feeling.

When you take all the side of booze and include the gear , the sides can increase quite a bit imo.

If you like me and have short fuse , then drinking is the LAST thing you should do while on juice. It tends to make snap alot quicker , and sometimes for no reason.


If you going to spend all your hard earned money and spend so much time in the gym to get the best results , then boozing shouldn’t even be considered during your cycle.

If it is been considered , you shouldnt be cycling.

alchohol dehydrates u and it has a diuretic effect so it could be the reason for your gains dropping as u have no water in the muscle...water retention does make u stronger (hence the reason u get so strong on long ester testosterones) kick the booze and it wont hamper your gains...

you should take into account what sort of alcohol is being taken here. strong spirits and whiskeys are more likely to damage your organs than the occasional glass of a nice cold beer or red wine.

a cold one once in a while is the same as a cheat meal...but if you're more concerned about winning mr olympia than just being one of us gym blokes, stay away from the booze.

100 mgs of anaps ??? lol thats hardcore. anyways the fact is alchocol has a very bad impact on your natural test levels and also increase estrogen levels.Ive read aricles where research was done and shown that your test levels stay lowered days after consuming alchocol. So im not sure if its too bad during a cycle if u doing injectibles only but definately stay away from it during pct. Alchocol will make you aggressive in mixture with gear but that depends on people as well. Its very controllable.
