Very simply the liver metabolises alcohol. It is a washing machine. If you put too much alcohol / washing in it it will break and you will get liver failure
It is very good at repairing itself so if you dont binge and if you give it a rest for a couple of days a week the risk falls
Alcohol also does other things though, including a risk of cancer and this is related to total dose....
All very depressing especially when you remind me of my medical student days.....
