I am pretty sure you should understand the metabolic effects of alcohol and the consequences of what you're saying before you recommend it to sick people.It’s primarily because we want to reduce the tolerance people have built up over time to alcohol.

That is exactly the opposite of what happens when you merely abstain without addressing the underlying illness.
Same shit, different day.
