Question by Cameron: How can I continue to abuse alcohol without doing further damage to my liver?
So I was hospitalized last week with pancreatitis and diabetic ketoacidosis after collapsing at my sister’s wedding reception. Anyway, the doctors ran some tests and it turns out that I have elevated liver enzymes and show signs of advanced liver disease.

The doctor advised that I quit drinking and even referred me to several addiction treatment facilities. The thing is, not drinking isn’t an option. Drinking to excess is a very important part of my lifestyle and my professional image. Is there something I’m doing wrong? Is there a safer way to drink? Are there any multivitamins or herbal supplements I can take to lessen the damaging effects of alcohol on my liver?

Drinking is very important to me and if it comes down to it I’ll choose drinking over my own health and well-being. I just hope it doesn’t have to come to that.
