What harms your liver and/or kidneys more?!


Question: What harms your liver and/or kidneys more!?
Hard liquor or beer!? I've been drinking pretty steadily for most of '08 and am just wondering if I've done any permanent damage yet!? I'll probably drink 3 beers in a day or 4 at most!. And for liquor about 2 shots of pure grain alcohol!. Its usually an either or thing never together!.!.!. more so the liquor because its not full of empty calories and hits you faster without filling you up!.
I know I won't be doing it forever because its mainly stemmed from boredom and once I find another pass time I'll cut back but I still see myself enjoying a few nights a week drinking or getting buzzed!. I've been given answers that just once a week can't be detrimental and I believe this to be utterly stupid but to me that would be the classic definition of moderation!.
I asked this in a health community and mostly got the get help stop drinking answers!.!.!. yeah I know I need to slow down as drinking everyday can't be healthy but I am curious as to older people 50's,60's,70's who have been drinking regularly if it has effected there life any or given them health problems!. I know some people can smoke all there life and although it effects them a bit inside and outside i!.e!. there skin!.!.!. they still outlive all of there friends and relatives!. I'm wondering how much genetics plays a part in it!.!.!. I can't look to any of my older relatives because none of them died from drinking/smoking all the time and my mom is adopted so no real help there!. I'm more just curious as to the answers I'll get!. I bet I don't keep on drinking everyday past the end of '08 it'll get boring eventually and I don't have an addictive personality!. Www@FoodAQ@Com
