Alcohol, as a poison, is known by many great poets, scientists and most importantly - doctors. Despite this, there is a modern medical opinion that moderate doses are not harmful to the human body, but, on the contrary, are beneficial. But such a theory is considered incorrect. On average, a person has about 17 liters of pure alcohol. This amount that a citizen drinks in a year.
Why do 10% of accidents, robberies and the like happen, and 40% end up in hospital wards for health reasons after a while? It's all the fault of regular alcohol use.
What happens to the body with constant use of alcohol
After drinking alcohol, a system failure occurs - stress for the body. Produces endogenous alcohol, which is responsible for the emotional state: love, joy, happiness.When artificial alcohol is ingested, all of these emotional regulators fall asleep, and with constant alcohol consumption they atrophy. A mental breakdown begins: a person can no longer enjoy the usual household things, he needs to increase the dose of alcohol in order to gain at least a little pleasure this way. This business is regularly engaged in moderate drinks of individuals. For them, a non-alcoholic holiday is not a holiday.
Stages of degradation of people with continuous use:
- In this step, a person gradually degrades. He can no longer perform simple household chores and cope with basic problems. This phase is called decompensation. After that comes the disease of alcoholism.
- In the final stage, a person understands nothing but where to get money for alcohol. He is like a drug addict, who is able to hold and sell household items and appliances to quench his thirst for alcohol. Alcoholics justify themselves by the fact that they are not drunkards, but simply that they have a constant hangover.
Regardless of people status, celebrities can get sick with it. All due to the fact that they consumed alcohol every day, and in moderation. This is a clear sign that modern medicine is seriously mistaken for the benefits of alcohol.
Consequences of regular and correct drinking
From a medical point of view, alcohol should be drunk in the following norms: drink a glass of wine or a glass of vodka every day. You just have to add that this amount has to be divided into 24 hours a day, it turns out a few drops per minute.
If a person smokes and smokes at the same time, accelerated aging will overcome it.After prolonged alcoholism, the human face becomes:
- in red;
- with protruding vessels;
- swollen;
- rough;
- in the last step is blue.
This phenomenon occurs due to the negative effect of alcohol on the vessels and epithelium of the skin. The internal organs are also subject to destructive effects.
Alcohol is not only a poison to health, but also makes a person disoriented in society.His psyche is broken, he has no personal instructions and values. Can do embarrassing things in front of a lot of people.
If you go deeper into the harm of alcohol in the body, then there are many diseases in the form:
- liver cirrhosis;
- premature aging;
- jerm;
- alcoholic encephalopathy;
- myocardial dystrophy;
- impotence;
- acute pancreatitis;
- neuroticization and poisoning.
This is not a complete list of diseases associated with chronic alcohol use.
A person who has lived for several months without a drop of alcohol experiences new sensations in changing his worldview. In his eyes, the whole world is changing and the gray days of the past take on bright shades of color. The right stream of thoughts begins. The emotional emotional background is improving. Life becomes eventful, bright and happy.
Why teens should not drink alcohol
Alcohol harm is known to all adults. Even a small amount of drunkenness will not bring serious harm to the holiday, because the adult body is able to withstand this disease. But for the child's body, the effect of double harm occurs.
The formation of a child's body stops after a few decades. Statistics show that during these years most young people start drinking alcohol. It is good if the child simply tries and draws negative conclusions. But worst of all, regular use is made, after the first glass of alcohol, the teenager decided that nothing bad would happen from it.
During this period of age, maturity begins to take shape: intelligence, body growth intensity and puberty develop. At this age, you need to do sports, eat properly with the content of vitamins and minerals in food.
Under favorable conditions, the adolescent organism is properly formed. But development slows down when you drink alcohol. At such an early age, alcohol has a detrimental effect on all organs and intelligence, and early degradation occurs. A young organism spends all its energy to somehow keep itself in a normal state, but development stops at the same time.
But even in such a fight, the forces are not equal, because the adolescent is not formed and the body does not have enough strength to cope with the consequences of alcohol. It is much easier for an adult to cope with the harmful consequences, but in the event that alcohol consumption does not occur often. At a young age, intellectual development begins to slow down, and all vital organs suffer. After a short period of alcoholism, irreversible consequences can occur.
Young people do not want to think about it because alcohol is foggy and fun. At this time, it is necessary to intervene with parents who are forced to talk about the dangers of alcohol. An advanced young man will never destroy himself in this way. You will not leave growing up, but the question arises - how will a teenager grow up after that? All dreams and ideas go downhill and after they mature, they start thinking: "why was it necessary to do this". In addition, they also acquire many diseases and a broken psyche.
Why you should not drink alcohol during pregnancy
Modern medicine has not yet been able to find a normal dose for pregnant women, so alcohol was completely ruled out for women in this position. To refuse, you need to reduce the daily portions by one per week, then you can refuse it completely. If you drink five servings a day, then the baby will be born with pathological abnormalities.
Alcohol enters the baby's body through the placenta.Severe abnormalities of the baby during pregnancy:
- The growing fetus is badly damaged if a woman abuses alcohol. A baby can be born with facial abnormalities, alcohol negatively affects the internal organs of the baby.
- If the mother is drinking, then in the future this will affect the deviation of the baby's nervous system, as well as the coordination of movements will be impaired, and the ability to learn will become poor. Pathology will remain for life.
- If the internal development with abnormalities that are subsequently caused by intoxication, then this is designated ARP - "fetal alcoholic disorder". The term defines the extent of congenital disorders of varying degrees.
- In the case of TSA - "fetal alcohol syndrome", there are abnormalities in the structure of the face. This is a very difficult case. The fruit is low in weight and height, and further development practically stops.
- Alcohol abuse can lead to miscarriage or premature birth.
Alcohol syndrome is not curable, so pregnant women need to think about the future of their baby.
Risks of alcohol during pregnancy
The level of alcohol threat to the developing fetus consists of several factors:
- the amount of alcohol consumed during pregnancy;
- for which period of pregnancy the drinking of alcoholic beverages is performed;
- daily consumption of alcoholic beverages during pregnancy.
The most harmful effects can occur when you drink alcohol in the last third trimester. During this period, the fetus begins to develop actively, especially the baby's brain. But that does not mean you can drink alcohol in the first trimester; in the initial stage of development, severe alcoholic consequences can also be formed.
Competent specialists cannot give a definite answer about the dangers of alcohol during pregnancy. They recommend eliminating alcoholic beverages altogether. But gynecologists say there is no evidence that alcohol can adversely affect the fetus during pregnancy. Therefore, they allow a few drinks a week.
The Ministry of Health recommends the complete elimination of alcoholic beverages during pregnancy, as well as for those women who wish to become pregnant. Despite medical studies, which have shown that pregnant women can safely drink a glass of wine every week.
If, unaware of the pregnancy, you drink alcohol, what can this lead to
Most women can drink alcohol without knowing about their pregnancy, this phenomenon happens very often. If the use was infrequent until the moment the woman learned of her pregnancy, then probably no pathology would occur.
Most people can get pregnant while under the influence of alcohol, children in this case are also born quite healthy. It all depends on the health of the body, for some it is stronger, and for others it is weaker. It is important to completely abandon this when a pregnancy is identified.
To replace alcohol, you need to find an alternative. For these purposes, ordinary juice is suitable, which is not only harmless, but also contains vitamins useful to the body. During a period of rejection, you should not be in the company of people drinking, this temptation will again involve you again in a harmful activity. Better read books or do something similar and fun.
