This is not to say that wine is the root of all evil. It is no harm to sober up in time after drunkenness and soothe the spleen and stomach, but many people just want to fall asleep after drunkenness and return to normal work the next day. Everyone who cares about health knows that alcohol can relax blood vessels, but long-term excessive drinking can cause arteriosclerosis and even affect the nervous system. Even so, some people have to drink for a long time because of their habits or work reasons. Can the body really bear it in the long run?
Since it is impossible to avoid or reduce the frequency and quantity of drinking, it is essential for people who cannot do without alcohol to take measures to reduce the harm of alcohol to human body. So what exactly should we do? Remember the following three points after drinking, which can greatly reduce the harm caused by long-term heavy drinking.
Drink some warm honey water after drinking.
People usually drink white wine when socializing. Liquor has high concentration and strong taste. After many people drink a lot of white wine, alcohol is converted into acetaldehyde in the human body, and the accumulation of acetaldehyde can lead to headaches, vomiting and other symptoms. At this time, drinking honey water can relieve headaches and reduce harm to the human body.
Because honey is rich in fructose, fructose is nutritious, which can provide energy for human liver cells, accelerate alcohol metabolism, promote the decomposition and absorption of alcohol, increase blood sugar concentration, dilute the alcohol content in blood, slow down the symptoms of headache after drinking, and quickly sober up.
Eat some fruit after drinking.
You can eat some fruits in moderation after drinking, such as pomegranate, pear and watermelon. Pomegranate is rich in flavonoids and polyphenols, which can effectively protect the liver and relieve the discomfort caused by drinking.
As we all know, pears are very powerful in invigorating lung qi. Eating a proper amount of pears can enhance the respiratory function of lung qi, let the carbon dioxide produced by alcohol be discharged as soon as possible, remove the carbon dioxide accumulated in the body, and avoid the symptoms of alcoholism. Watermelon is not only sweet, but also a great weapon for hangover. Watermelon diuresis, intake of watermelon can make the alcohol in the body excrete with urine, reduce the alcohol content in the blood, and also play a role in cooling down.
Sit down and have a rest after drinking.
Many people feel groggy after drinking too much, and just want to fly to bed and enjoy a beautiful dream at once, which is definitely not desirable. Lying down immediately after drinking can cause food in the stomach to flow back to the esophagus or respiratory tract. If vomiting occurs, sleeping immediately will lead to vomiting and even suffocation. Drinking is harmful to the liver. If you sleep immediately after drinking a lot, it will slow down the metabolism of the human body, damage the liver and be harmful to the kidneys.
Maybe not everyone will choose to go to bed immediately after drinking a lot of wine, but without exception, they will enjoy taking a hot bath. After all, all alcohol and fatigue will be washed away by the current, but this is extremely dangerous, because after drinking, the capillaries of the whole body will expand, accompanied by a certain degree of hypotension. At this time, bathing is easy to catch a cold or hypoglycemia, and it may also lead to dangerous situations such as falling down due to drunkenness.
Therefore, it is advisable to sit still for a while after drinking, which can not only alleviate the discomfort caused by heavy drinking, but also provide sufficient time for liver detoxification. Taking a bath and sleeping after a short rest can reduce the harm of alcohol to human body more effectively.
Wine is a double-edged sword. In the cold winter, moderate drinking can soothe the meridians and provide heat to resist the cold. Some medicinal liquor also has the effect of curing diseases and preserving health. However, drinking a lot, especially blending liquor with alcohol, is extremely harmful to human body, and controlling the amount of drinking is the best choice. If it is really unavoidable, follow the above three points to minimize the harm of heavy drinking to the human body. Never let your body be ignored because you are young.
