As the Spring Festival approaches, there are more and more parties at the end of the year, so people in China always drink when eating. If you say that drinking is not good, wine lovers may find a bunch of articles on "drinking is good for health" from the Internet to testify for themselves: "Look! Scientists say drinking is good for blood vessels! Drinking is a kind of health! "
This is a rumor!
From 2065438 to August 2008, The Lancet, the world's top medical magazine, published an article pointing out that drinking directly led to 2.8 million deaths worldwide, and the safest drinking amount was 0; Not drinking is more beneficial to your health, as long as you drink, it will increase your burden.
Therefore, those articles that preach that drinking a little wine every day is good for the body, good for the heart and increase the metabolism of the body are just self-consolation for drinkers.
1, causing liver disease.
More than 90% of alcohol in the body is metabolized by the liver, and its metabolites and the metabolic disorder of liver cells caused by them. If a person drinks alcohol for a long time, a large amount of alcohol will accumulate in the body, which will cause a great burden on the liver, thus damaging the normal function of the liver, ranging from alcoholic hepatitis to liver disease.
2. Brain injury
Alcohol will not only affect the liver organs, but also cause different degrees of damage to the brain.
Excessive alcohol will shrink the cerebral cortex, causing brain dysfunction and consciousness disorder. Long-term excessive drinking will cause chronic alcoholism, which is characterized by personality change, mental abnormality, poor orientation and memory loss.
Saying that alcohol is a stimulant is actually the biggest misunderstanding. The function of alcohol is only to paralyze the brain. If you don't want to have symptoms of Alzheimer's disease ahead of time, then give yourself a routine dose.
3, cause acute gastritis
Excessive drinking at one time will lead to acute gastritis, while continuous heavy drinking will inevitably lead to more serious chronic gastritis and gastric ulcer. Even if you have always been famous for your steel stomach, you can still leap forward after a hangover, but alcohol will stick to the spirit of dripping water and wearing a stone, and it is only a matter of time before the injury appears.
4, causing malnutrition in the body.
When drinking, many people just pay attention to the wine and talk excitedly, but ignore the food on the table. Wine is a kind of food with pure heat energy. Although it can generate heat to make you feel warm, it has no nutrients. Over time, the body's nutrition is not balanced, and the physique will get worse.
5, causing cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.
Long-term drinking will lead to myocardial weakness and irregular blood flow. People who drink too much often suffer from cardiomyopathy, which leads to relaxation or relaxation of myocardium and increases the risk of heart attack, stroke and cerebral hemorrhage. Some people will be in a coma and lose consciousness after getting drunk, which is easy to endanger their lives.
