You are turning red (alcohol flush reaction) because of an enzyme deficiency. Drinking when you have that deficiency means you have a six to ten times greater chance of developing esophageal cancer. Is getting ripped really worth it?
The article I found did not mention any problems, except it masks the issues that come with the glow.
“Bisaga and Ho also warned that it was particularly dangerous for eastern Asians who experience the Asian glow to drink large quantities of alcohol. They are more likely to die from excessive alcohol consumption, Wall said. And east Asians with increased acetaldehyde levels and abnormal genes may be at a greater risk of developing different liver diseases, head and neck cancer and other symptoms typically associated with long-term alcohol abuse.”
