Drinking is not good for people's health, but some people often drink on an empty stomach (hunger and thirst), which is even more harmful to their health.
Drinking on an empty stomach, without food relief in the stomach, will directly stimulate and erode the gastric mucosa and muscularis, destroy gastric acid, inhibit the secretion of various digestive enzymes in the gastrointestinal tract, slow down gastrointestinal peristalsis, and easily cause nausea and vomiting, abdominal pain and bloating, loss of appetite, indigestion and constipation.
At the same time, drinking alcohol on an empty stomach can quickly absorb alcohol, which has a great influence on the brain, nerves, muscles, heart, liver, kidneys and other organs and tissues, and can lead to dizziness, tinnitus, listlessness, fatigue, muscle trembling, shortness of breath, swelling pain in the liver area, yellow urine and burning pain in urine.
Frequent thirst for wine on an empty stomach will lead to serious chronic diseases, such as gastric and duodenal ulcers, chronic gastroenteritis, mixed hemorrhoids, forgetfulness and insomnia, mental retardation, hallucinations, neurasthenia, muscle weakness and yellow skin, numbness of limbs, tachycardia, arrhythmia, angina pectoris, hypertension, arteriosclerosis, hepatomegaly, cirrhosis, kidney calculi, uremia and so on.
It can be seen that although drinking on an empty stomach can get some benefits, it does great harm. Therefore, no matter what kind of wine, it is not suitable for drinking on an empty stomach, especially when you are hungry, otherwise the harm will be more serious. Wine should be drunk when the food in the stomach is not fully digested (that is, when you are not hungry), or after eating some meals, so as to reduce the harm of wine to the body.
People who drink on an empty stomach are prone to hypertension.
Please don't forget to eat some food before you drink. Because a new study shows that drinking on an empty stomach will increase the risk of hypertension.
The researchers reached this conclusion after investigating the eating habits of more than 2,600 adult whites. During the study, the blood pressure of these subjects was measured three times, and drinking without eating any food was one of the risk factors for hypertension. The survey results show that people who are used to drinking on an empty stomach are 1.5 times more likely to suffer from hypertension than those who never drink. Hypertension means that the systolic blood pressure (the highest number) is at least 140 and the diastolic blood pressure (the lowest number) is greater than 90. The study, published in the recently published Journal of Hypertension, said that skipping meals and drinking alcohol had a significant impact on hypertension, regardless of the amount of alcohol consumed.
Previous studies have confirmed that heavy drinking is related to hypertension, but new studies have further elaborated; If you drink a little wine without food, even if you drink a little wine, you are more likely to get high blood pressure. Men and women have similar results, regardless of the type of wine.
It has been proved that drinking alcohol can reduce the risk of heart disease, but men should not drink more than twice a day and women should not drink more than once a day to benefit. If this new study is confirmed, it may soon be suggested to eat snacks when drinking every day. Studies have also shown that alcoholics (drinking at least twice a day) are more likely to suffer from high blood pressure. This may mean that patients with hypertension should drink alcohol less than twice a day. Researchers say that drinking without eating some food may offset the benefits of moderate drinking on the heart.
