Three cups a day, 250 beats, long dead.
Lao Lin, 54, from Fujian, is doing tea business with us. He is an alcoholic. The first thing he does every morning is to drink. He must never drink less three meals a day. He drinks at least 1.5 kg to 2 kg every day on average.
I told him more than once, don't drink so much, something will happen; But he said, "I've been drinking all my life and I can't quit." That's it! " "
One weekend night, when I was on duty, the emergency department called to say that I had an arrhythmia consultation. I went to see Lao Lin lying on the monitoring bed. The emergency doctor has electrocuted Lao Lin twice.
Lao Lin suddenly fainted and his family was taken to the hospital. An electrocardiogram showed rapid arrhythmia, ventricular tachycardia, torsade de pointes, and a heart rate of over 250 beats. I fainted here twice after admission, and the doctor has defibrillated twice.
After intravenous infusion of rescue drugs, the patient still suffered from repeated ventricular tachycardia and had to be defibrillated repeatedly for more than 20 times. Later, after potassium and magnesium supplementation, anti-arrhythmia and other treatments, after more than three hours of rescue, the condition finally stabilized.
I still have to drink alcohol during hospitalization. If I don't drink, I will go crazy. Finally discharged from the hospital, we still advised him to give up drinking, but it was useless.
A few months later, Lao Lin fainted again and was taken to the hospital. His heart has stopped beating, and Lao Lin is gone. He can't drink any more.
The disease was caused by Lao Lin's long-term alcoholism, which led to such a serious arrhythmia and eventually led to death.
Excessive drinking will not only lead to this malignant arrhythmia, but also aggravate the degree of atherosclerosis, hypertension, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, myocardial infarction, cerebral infarction, sudden death and other risks.
Do not eat or drink, liver cirrhosis and liver cancer.
Lao Wu, the son of an old patient, was hospitalized for a long time because his father was a veteran cadre, and he was old and in poor health. After that, Lao Wu stopped working and stayed with his old father all the year round.
Later, I found that Wu's ward was full of alcohol for a long time, and I realized that Lao Wu loved to drink and was addicted to alcohol. He had no alcohol for a day and no alcohol for a meal.
I found that his palm is red, and he has a liver palm. I say you drink less and see what your liver has become. Lao Wu asked me how I knew he had a bad liver. I said how good the liver can be, and sooner or later it will cirrhosis.
Within a year, Wu Lao had not left, and his son Lao Wu left first because of liver cancer.
Alcoholic cirrhosis is caused by long-term heavy drinking. It is the terminal stage of alcoholic hepatitis, and the occurrence of alcoholic cirrhosis is related to drinkers' drinking style, gender, genetic factors, nutritional status and whether they are complicated with hepatitis virus infection. Drinking a lot of scores at a time and drinking a little a few times is more harmful, and drinking every day is more harmful than intermittent drinking. Women who drink alcohol are more likely to suffer from alcoholic liver disease than men. It is easy to become cancerous after liver cirrhosis, leading to death.
Big data on drinking:
The Lancet, the world's top magazine, was included in the study, with a sample size of nearly 600,000 people. The hazards of long-term drinking are as follows:
Leading to a significant increase in the incidence of stroke; The incidence of heart failure increased significantly; The risk of coronary heart disease is significantly increased; Leading to a significant increase in liver cancer; The risk of digestive tract ulcer and gastrointestinal bleeding is significantly increased.
According to the survey, among the more than 32 million people who die for various reasons every year in the world, 2.8 million are directly caused by drinking, which is the seventh leading cause of death!
There is an article in The Lancet (20 19), in which 28 million people are selected, and various factors such as gender, age, alcohol consumption and frequency are analyzed in detail, and the harm of alcohol to health is made clear. The final conclusion is: there is no such thing as moderate drinking is good for health, but how much alcohol you drink is harmful!
Why do some people drink every day?
1, everyone's metabolism and tolerance to alcohol are different, that is, the amount of alcohol we talk about is different. Some people get drunk when they drink 1, while others don't get drunk when they drink 1 kg. But not being drunk does not mean that there is no harm. It hurts more when you are drunk. People who drink every day, especially those who drink a lot, are in poor health. If there is, it is also a character in martial arts novels, but Gu Long, the author of martial arts novels, is a heavy drinker. After the doctor told him that he had to give up drinking, he died at the age of 47 after drinking for three days.
We only see a small sample of events, that is, it is easier to remember who lived to be 90 years old and forget those who died early after drinking. Remember Shi who died of drinking last year, Gu Long who died of drinking, and many people around him who died young because of drinking? I don't even remember. People are more willing to believe that Jong lived after drinking 100 years.
3. Single-factor drinking will definitely affect health and life expectancy, and it is recognized that alcoholism will definitely affect health and shorten life expectancy. As for people who drink longevity wine, on the one hand, the genes are good, including longevity genes and alcohol metabolism, on the other hand, the comprehensive conditions are good, that is, other factors lead to longevity, not because of drinking, and there is no evidence to prove that drinking longevity.
4. We don't exclude individuals who drink a little wine every day, or a relatively safe dose for them, and at the same time cooperate with a comprehensive and healthy lifestyle and healthy mentality to live a long life. But this longevity is not the result of drinking, but the result of a small amount of comprehensive health style, mentality, genetics and so on.
Is there a safe dose for drinking?
First of all, everyone can drink different amounts of wine. Secondly, it says that how much wine we drink is not necessarily good for our health, but we really can't live without wine.
Under the premise of personal circumstances, if adults want to drink alcohol, men should not exceed 25g and women should not exceed 15g per day.
25 grams of alcohol is equivalent to 750 ml of beer, or 250 ml of wine, or 75 ml of 38-degree liquor, or 50 ml of high-alcohol liquor.
15g alcohol is equivalent to 450ml beer, or 150ml wine, or 50ml 38-degree liquor, or 30ml high-alcohol liquor.
Eat less wine and learn more!
Drinking hurts the liver, smoking hurts the lungs, and you will be sad if you don't smoke or drink. This is the best portrayal of some smokers and students.
Now everyone is saying that drinking is not good. Smoking is not only bad for your health, but also affects the health of others. Smoking is not harmful, but it does affect others.
Let's talk about drinking. Now every year, some national and international organizations are publishing some data, such as what diseases drinking will cause, or how many people die every year because of drinking. However, in our daily life, we often see some people who smoke and drink, and they are still healthy when they are 80 or 90 years old.
For example, my grandfather, but now he is dead. He used to drink almost every day. Later, when he was in his eighties, the doctor wouldn't let him drink, and then he stopped drinking. A few years later, he died at the age of 90. However, the time he didn't drink in his life may be when he was a child and in the last few years, and he drank all the rest of the time, sometimes getting drunk.
In fact, the most critical issue of drinking is moderation. In fact, whatever you do, you should be moderate. Too little is not good, too much is definitely worse. Eating too much is not good, let alone drinking. Therefore, you can only control yourself. It's okay to drink a little every day, but don't get drunk.
Secondly, it is also based on people's physique. Everyone's physical condition is different, so it can't be said that others have problems with drinking, so everyone will have problems with drinking.
Of course, for those people who can't drink, such as those with physical problems and liver problems, we all know that China is the country with the biggest liver disease in the world, and one in ten people has liver problems, so drinking for these people must be controlled. People with hypertension, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases and stomach diseases should drink less.
Nowadays, people in society have to drink, but in any case, the body knows that people who can't drink should never drink. The body is your own, and the body makes money, but money may not get a healthy body, so pay attention to drinking.
Nutritionist Tang Xiao will answer your questions. This is actually equivalent to looking at the problem one-sidedly. It is said that drinking is harmful to health. Then why are some people still in good health after drinking every day? Sugar thinks there are the following reasons.
1. Drinking a small amount of wine every day is actually harmless. The alcohol content of men's daily drinking is less than 25g, and that of women's daily drinking is less than15g. In this range, our bodies can easily metabolize alcohol. So, it makes sense to have a little fun.
2. Personal physique, we have to admit that everyone's physique is different. It's like, some people get fat as soon as they eat, and some people can't get fat at all. Some people are in good health, even if they smoke and drink every day, they can live to be seventy or eighty years old. Therefore, it is unfair to be naive in the world. The first spell for my father was given to my body by my parents.
3. Other factors, such as diet, exercise and mentality, are all important factors affecting health. Who does not have the bad habit of smoking, drinking and staying up late? But these people are all working people. After long-term exercise, simple diet and optimistic attitude, they can still live a healthy life.
Therefore, we can't just look at the problem from one point. To look at it comprehensively. Everyone has bad habits. Different constitutions and living conditions make everyone's physical condition different.
We can't imitate others just because they don't drink or smoke all their lives. Because many people are seriously ill because of smoking and drinking, but you just don't see it.
Zhang Xueliang came to eat, drink, gamble and take drugs, and lived 100 years old.
In that case, wouldn't it tell people that they can live longer if they come with everything?
If you really think so, congratulations, you have only seen the surface again.
When was Zhang Xueliang born? As we all know, what is his medical background (specialized private doctor)? You don't have to think about it.
Say Jong is too far away, just talk about the great men of modern times! He lived for more than 80 years and never left his body. The problem is that his old man is the head of a country. Can ordinary people compare with him? His medical care, his diet and his daily life are all formulated by professionals to make up for the health damage caused by smoking as much as possible.
Many people drink a lot of wine and are still in good health. This is just the surface you see. You can't see the liver problem behind him. He won't tell you the problem behind drinking because of this. Of course, there is no denying that some people are in good health and drinking is no big deal, but you should know that this does not mean that you can.
As doctors, we advise others to drink less and not to smoke. We never talk about personal feelings, only from the data. Go to the doctor's respiratory department to see how many patients are caused by smoking. Go to the place where the liver is examined and ask how much is caused by drinking.
There is a common logical fallacy in life, such as survivor bias, which means that you can only see some screening results, but you are not clear about the screening process, so you ignore the key information that has been screened. What you see now is actually a minority in my eyes, but what I see is more diseases caused by smoking and drinking, and some even drag my body down.
A person who doesn't smoke or drink is likely to be much healthier than a person who often smokes and drinks. Of course, you insist that so many people who smoke and drink in the world have not seen many great events, and I have nothing to say. I just hope you can smoke and drink, and you can say it decades later without regret.
I have met too many people. At first, I sneered at doctors who advised them not to smoke less and drink less, but on that day, they regretted not listening to the doctor earlier. I hope you don't become such a person.
Hello, I'm Dr. Intimate Blue.
Human beings live in this social environment, and whether they are healthy or not is a matter of their own genes on the one hand, and the influence of the environment on the body on the other. Speaking of drinking, it can actually be seen as a problem that the external environment affects itself. The influence of drinking on human body has been confirmed by many scientific studies, which can affect our nervous system, liver and cardiovascular system. However, many people don't believe or agree. Most of these people are alcoholics and even addicted to alcohol. They insist that whoever drinks for a long time is in good health, never goes to the hospital and lives to be 99 years old. This is actually a question of individual difference and probability, which only shows that drinking has little effect on this person, not no effect. If he doesn't drink, he may live to 100. What factors are related to the influence of drinking on the body? Let's have a look.
1, alcohol consumption
People often say that drinking too much is harmful to health. In fact, everyone admits that drinking too much is bad for health. How can it be too much? How can it be counted as less? Just to see if you're drunk. That won't do. With regard to drinking, and drinking by healthy adults, the Dietary Guide for China residents suggests that the daily alcohol intake of men should be less than 25g and that of women should be less than 15g, which is actually equivalent to 50ml of high-alcohol liquor (one or two),100ml of red wine (two or two) and 300ml of beer (six or two). Those who drink can guess and see for themselves. For those who drink less,
2. Frequency and time of drinking
The same is drinking. Some people drink it once in a while, for example once or twice a month. Some people drink it every day or even every meal. Some studies believe that if the daily water discharge is increased to more than 2 times and the weekly alcohol intake exceeds 300g, the harm will be greatly increased and the life span will be significantly shortened. The longer you drink it, the more obvious this effect will be. So excessive drinking is very harmful.
3, the body's metabolism of alcohol
Everyone's "drinking capacity" is different. In fact, everyone's metabolic rate of alcohol is different. A series of enzymes are needed in the process of alcohol metabolism, including alcohol dehydrogenase and acetaldehyde dehydrogenase. The activity and quantity of these enzymes are different in everyone's body. People with "poor alcohol consumption" are due to low acetaldehyde dehydrogenase and slow metabolism. The accumulation of acetaldehyde in the body is easy to dilate blood vessels and increase heart rate. The slower the metabolism, the greater the impact on the body.
4. Suggestions on drinking
Healthy adults, a small amount of drinking is not taboo, but it is by no means what benefits it can bring. For patients with some physical diseases, such as hypertension, hyperlipidemia, coronary heart disease, peptic ulcer, abnormal liver function, etc. It is suggested to limit drinking and it is best to give up drinking.
In short, a person who drinks every day is still in good health, which does not mean that drinking is harmless. Maybe he hasn't been drinking long enough, maybe he doesn't drink much, maybe his body has a fast metabolism (good genes). For ordinary people without special diseases, a small amount of drinking has little effect on their health, while excessive drinking is more harmful, especially for patients with certain basic diseases.
People often say that "drinking is harmful to the body", especially to organs such as liver and stomach, and the greater the amount of drinking, the longer the time, the greater the harm. Because alcohol enters the body, it will cause great stimulation to the stomach, and it is easy to damage the gastric mucosa if it is drunk frequently. At the same time, alcohol needs to be decomposed and excreted through the liver, so drinking alcohol will increase the burden on the liver and cause liver damage.
So we will always advise drinkers that drinking will hurt their stomach and liver, so drink less. But why do some people drink alcohol every day without seeing the harm to the stomach and liver, and they are still healthy? Let's look at the expert's specific explanation.
Why does drinking hurt your health, but some people drink it every day, but their health is very good? In fact, there is a reason for this. These three common senses should be understood:
1, gene difference
Because the genetic differences in each human body cause different physical qualities. Some people are born unable to drink, and their bodies lack an enzyme substance. As long as they drink a little wine, their faces will turn red And some people are allergic to alcohol and can't drink.
But there is such a kind of people who are gifted, that is, they are rewarded by heaven and have strong ability to sober up, so they can drink and are not easy to get drunk.
2, will choose the type of wine.
We usually say that such people can drink, and only drink one kind of wine on the wine table, and they will not drink with the wine, so the damage to the liver will be less. And some people just want to be cheerful for a while, drink all kinds of wine together, and sometimes drink with drinks.
This is very harmful to the body, 60 times more harmful than drinking only one kind of wine, and it is easy to induce liver cancer. Therefore, it is best to have a certain understanding of various wines when drinking, so that you can effectively choose and control and do less harm to your body.
3. Good alcohol consumption control
Although some people feel that they are drinking every day, in fact, after careful observation, they don't drink much alcohol every day, and they may drink for several days in a row, and they can't keep up with the amount that some people drink at one time. These people can better control their drinking. They don't drink too much alcohol, so the harm of alcohol to their health is minimized.
However, although I have been drinking in moderation, alcohol is harmful to my health after all. Although you can't see the impact on your body for a short time, with the accumulation of time, the harm will gradually appear.
If you want to minimize the damage of drinking to the liver, you should also pay attention to these aspects: 1, don't drink on an empty stomach.
Eating yogurt, snacks and other foods properly before drinking can reduce the harm of alcohol to the body. Drink plenty of boiled water when drinking, which will help to promote alcohol discharge and reduce the damage to the liver. Don't eat bacon, salted fish and other foods, which is the most harmful to the liver.
2. Don't drink.
When drinking, take a sip and drink slowly, which is not easy to get drunk and is also beneficial to protect gastrointestinal mucosa and respiratory tract.
Step 3 choose low-alcohol wine
Try to drink low-alcohol alcohol, which will do less harm to the liver.
4. Drink warm wine instead of ice wine.
It is best to scald the wine before drinking it, which will help some substances such as ethanol contained in alcohol to volatilize, reduce the alcohol concentration and do less harm to the liver.
5. Pay attention to the hangover after drinking.
To avoid the harm of alcohol to the body, we should pay attention to hangover after drinking.
In short, people who drink regularly but are healthy have their own physical reasons and drinking methods, but these are also examples and are not universal. For long-term drinkers, it is best to give up drinking. Even if you can't quit, you should pay attention to reducing the harm of alcohol to your body.
The most typical one is Zhang Xueliang, a young marshal who is proficient in eating, drinking, whoring and gambling, and has lived for more than 100 years.
If you really think so, you are wrong.
You know, Zhang Xueliang's "degenerate career" did not last long.
When Zhang Xueliang was a child, his family was average and he wouldn't be allowed to play so much.
In other words, in Zhang's later years, after the rise of Feng, Zhang Xueliang became "crazy".
The good times didn't last long. Zhang died in a few years, and the rumbled himself was less "nonsense".
Only when you are in charge do you know what a busy thing is. Zhang Xueliang is overwhelmed by all kinds of things every day, so there is no time to eat, drink, go whoring and gamble.
When Zhang Xueliang was a "little flower" and a "four sons of the Republic of China", it was said that he could not sit for ten minutes and had to find a place to smoke two cigarettes, which showed that he was addicted to cigarettes.
But since his father died, it is rare to hear rumbled smoking opium.
On this day, Zhang Xueliang was detained before long.
The days of detention, that is, eating and drinking, are enough, but there is nothing special to take care of, which is equivalent to giving Jong compulsory smoking cessation.
Later, he retired to Taiwan Province Province, went to prison again, and even lost his personal freedom.
It is conceivable that for 50 years, Zhang Xueliang lived a life similar to an ascetic monk.
It can be said that Zhang Xueliang has severed relations with alcohol and tobacco for decades.
Besides, the wine that Zhang Xueliang used to drink is not the wine blended with alcohol now. At that time, wine was really the essence of food, and its harm to the body was not so serious.
In addition, Zhang Xueliang has a special doctor to recuperate, so his body has been very healthy.
So don't believe that drinking a lot of wine every day can keep you healthy. At first, you may not see anything. In the long run, the harm to the body is very serious.
Speaking of drinking, it has always been a pain point for Dr. Li. After graduating from senior three, everyone drank for the first time at the party, and everyone frequently raised their glasses. The first time I drank beer, I felt bitter and there was nothing wrong with it, so I followed everyone one after another. When I drank the fifth bottle, I felt like my stomach was turning upside down and my blood was surging, which made me feel "not wanting to throw up". Hurriedly ran to the bathroom, because of inexperience, mouth and nose sprayed out together. I vomited seven or eight times and fell asleep. I was sent home and slept until the next morning. My throat and esophagus are like fire.
From then on, even if you don't drink more than three glasses of beer, it will be unbearable hot, and your skin will be red and itchy. At the same time, if the stomach is swollen, it will vomit quickly, so why do some people drink it but it's okay, or even a thousand cups?
There are hangover enzymes in human body, including alcohol dehydrogenase and acetaldehyde dehydrogenase. The main component of the wine we drink is acetaldehyde, which is decomposed into acetaldehyde by ethanol in the body. Then acetaldehyde dehydrogenase decomposes acetaldehyde into acetic acid, so there is nothing wrong with turning it into acetic acid. With decomposition, it can be excreted through urine.
Therefore, it is very important to be able to drink. Some people have these two enzymes, which is the legendary "wine basket". People who go to the toilet after drinking and continue to have nothing to do can really drink.
There is only alcohol dehydrogenase, which is red and warm after drinking. Because acetaldehyde can dilate blood vessels and pass through other metabolic pathways more slowly, it will take several hours for Dr. Li to blush after drinking. The long-term accumulation of acetaldehyde is very harmful to the body and will lead to liver cancer.
There is also the absence of these two enzymes. After drinking alcohol, ethanol will flow all over the body with blood, but it will not blush, and even become whiter and whiter. Alcohol flows all over the body with the blood. Although such people are not easy to get drunk, it takes longer for alcohol to be eliminated from the body, which is also the most harmful to the body.
Finally, many friends say that some people drink alcohol every day but are in good health. I can only say that one example does not represent universality. Everyone has different living and working environments and different innate conditions, so to form good habits is to be responsible for yourself, not to argue with others.
Why are some people in good health after drinking every day? As far as I know, people who like drinking are really in poor health! Of course, there is also a key information topic that is not reflected in it, the amount of drinking!
Look at this study, people who drink more than 350 grams a week will have a much shorter life expectancy! However, if you only drink 100 to 200 grams a week, that's fine, with little impact.
Few people who drink alcohol are really healthy! Either the stomach is bad or the liver is bad! Some people say that I drink one or two bottles of beer or two glasses of white wine once or twice a week, and I don't see anything wrong. Dude, you haven't even drunk! Of course, such a small amount is not a problem Look at those who drink a lot of alcohol every day (it should be to discuss alcoholism), and there will be problems more or less.
However, an article in The Lancet magazine studied the relationship between drinking and diseases in 195 regions around the world, and pointed out that even if you only drink a little, even if you have ever drunk, your risk of serious diseases is higher than those who never drink again! Surprise! Scientists point out that drinking a glass of wine every day increases the risk of serious diseases by 0.5%! Two cups a day will reach 7%, and five cups will increase to 37%! So, are you lucky to drink? Do you still think it's okay to drink a little? I advise you to quit this hobby as soon as possible! Drinking is as useless as smoking! Drinking alcohol is easy to damage gastric mucosa, liver cells, stomach diseases, liver cirrhosis and liver cancer! What is there to miss? !
Drink rationally. It is not irrational to drink every day, nor is it irrational to drink occasionally. Everyone has different tolerance for wine. Some people get dizzy immediately after drinking a mouthful of wine, and some people don't even react after drinking a few drinks. Of course, most people still react quickly after drinking. Drinking too much is not good for people. I witnessed a colleague in my unit drink to death. He couldn't live without wine for three meals a day, got as drunk as a fiddler and finally died of alcoholism.
What is rational drinking? "Wine" is a human invention. Wine also promotes blood circulation in medicine. Drinking it every day is not a problem within human tolerance. This tolerance varies from person to person. Non-drinkers should not be forced to drink, because alcohol can also make people allergic. Some people drink it every day and for a long time, as long as they pay attention to the limit, there is no other disease.
I am a person who drinks every day. I drink rice wine, which is good for brewing. It is delicious and a kind of happiness. I felt refreshed after drinking wine at noon. But I hate drinking at dinners and banquets, and drinking at night. The reason is that drinking too much is often easy to persuade people to drink too much. Excessive drinking is a very dangerous thing. Many people die of stomach bleeding because of excessive drinking. Drinking at home, the wine is bought at your own expense, just drink it in moderation, and the amount is limited to your own safety range, so there is generally no problem. Then why don't you like drinking at night? Because you must get drunk when drinking at night, or you will wake up after sleeping for an hour or two, so don't sleep awake that night. Being drunk as mud is bad for your health, and sleeping for an hour or two is bad for your health, so I only have one meal at noon and only need to sleep for half an hour. Wine is also an ordinary low-priced wine. If you can't afford to drink Danyang's "sealed wine", then drink Danyang yellow wine, which is also sweet and delicious.
As for drinking long life, I think people who drink probably won't think much. If they always think that this thing is poisonous and that food is harmful, that person may not be poisoned but scared to death. People who like drinking do live long, perhaps this is the gene or fate.
