How much wine to drink and how long will it lead to liver disease?
At present, most studies believe that 48% of people who drink more than 40 grams a day for more than 5 years will have alcoholic liver disease in different degrees: when they drink 80- 100 grams a day, the risk of alcoholic liver disease will increase by five times; If the daily intake exceeds160g, it will increase by 25 times; If you drink alcohol for 8 years and consume an average of 227 grams of alcohol every day, 33% alcoholics will develop alcoholic hepatitis and 14% will develop alcoholic cirrhosis. The risk of drinking a lot at one time is greater than that of drinking a little, and the risk of liver disease is higher in early years.
Noun explanation: 40 grams of alcohol. It is about equivalent to brandy 100 ml, whisky 120 ml, rice wine 250 ml, beer 1000 ml, and 38-degree liquor 130 ml.
It is also worth mentioning that malnutrition and protein deficiency will aggravate the toxicity of alcohol to the liver, so eating a moderate amount of fat and high protein diet can reduce the toxicity of alcohol to the liver to a certain extent. However, excessive drinking exceeds the critical value of alcoholism, and diet adjustment is useless.
3 ways to reverse alcoholic hepatitis!
Long-term heavy drinking can easily lead to alcoholic hepatitis, which can be adjusted through daily diet. Chen Huaiyu, chief physician of Liver Disease Center of Southern Hospital of Southern Medical University, said that to prevent liver injury, diet control is the quantity of diet on the one hand and the fat in diet on the other. Therefore, how to regulate alcoholic hepatitis can start from these three aspects.
First, eat seven or eight full meals.
With the development of society, people's living standards have been greatly improved, and the quality of life has also improved a lot. The improvement of living standards is reflected in the long-term solution to the problem of food and clothing. Overliving will lead to overnutrition, excessive intake of high-calorie food, and excess heat deposited in the liver will lead to fatty liver, so diet should be moderate. In terms of TCM health care, it is better to eat 70% to 80% full every meal, which is good for any organ of the human body.
Second, we must control fat intake.
The second aspect of diet control is the restriction of "fat", and foods with high calories should be eaten as little as possible. Intake of high-sugar food, high-fat food, high-fat food, animal offal, seafood, etc. Should be controlled. Seafood is rich in cholesterol, especially seafood with shells, which is relatively high in cholesterol, so it is necessary to eat as little as possible or control the intake of such foods, which is the "fat" restriction.
Third, resolutely give up drinking.
The third aspect of diet control is abstinence from alcohol. Because alcoholism can cause alcoholic fatty liver, alcoholic hepatitis and alcoholic cirrhosis, when alcoholic hepatitis or cirrhosis occurs, kupffer cells decrease, which can increase the occurrence of hepatocellular carcinoma.
