Genetic Alcohol Problem?

Question by OldGregg: Genetic alcohol problem?
Me and one of my friends like to go out and drink little (as we do) but he text me earlier saying he’s supposed to stop because he has a genetic alcohol addiction thing which is hereditary. I tried following this up with saying *do you mean you just have a history of alcoholics in your family?* but he said its some hereditary thing where his family becomes easily addicted (they do have a lot of piss heads lol). Is this true, like is it an actual genetic condition and if so, what is it?

Best answer:

Answer by parkermbg
The Genetics of Addiction
Anyone can become an addict. We all have the genetic predisposition for addiction because there is an evolutionary advantage to that. When an animal eats a certain food that it likes, there is an advantage to associating pleasure with that food so that the animal will look for that food in the future. In other words the potential for addiction is hardwired into our brain. Everyone has eaten too much of their favorite food even though they knew it wasn’t good for them.
