Vodka and health
Consumption in excess can cause respiratory failure and can be lethal. In addition, like any other type of alcohol, when under the influence can cause traumatic injuries such as accidents and falls. Can cause dehydration of the body and digestive irritations as well.

We advice you to stay away from cheap black-market varieties you might be able to buy in certain countries. There are no guarantees what goes into these black-market type vodka in the production processes and there is a possibility of added ethanol substitutes which are dangerous and can be lethal upon consumption.
