Why is drinking addictive? In real life, many people like drinking, and many people are even addicted to drinking, which is inseparable from alcohol. I have collected and sorted out the relevant information about why drinking is addictive for everyone. Let's take a look.
Why is drinking addictive 1 first, alcohol itself is an addictive substance, and it is one of the largest and most common psychoactive substances in the world. Long-term drinking is very prone to addiction problems, especially when the amount of drinking is increasing and the frequency of drinking is increasing, drinking will make you feel happy, and if you don't drink, you will have problems such as pain, discomfort and shaking hands.
Second, personality factors, especially some people are introverted and sensitive, some people are particularly strong and perfectionist, and some people are particularly stubborn and self-centered. These personality defects are easy to cause alcohol addiction.

The harm of drinking beer for a long time
Beer heart: if you drink beer excessively, the accumulated alcohol in the body will damage the liver function, increase the burden on the kidneys, and the myocardial tissue will also have fat cell infiltration, which will weaken the myocardial function and cause tachycardia; Coupled with excessive fluid, the blood circulation increases and the burden on the heart increases, resulting in myocardial hypertrophy and ventricular volume expansion, forming a "beer heart." In the long run, it can cause heart failure and arrhythmia.
Beer belly: Because beer is rich in nutrition and produces a lot of heat, long-term drinking in large quantities will cause fat accumulation in the body, resulting in a big belly and a "beer belly". This will easily lead to an increase in blood lipids and blood pressure.
Why is drinking addictive? 2 Why is drinking drunk?
It has something to do with alcohol in wine.
It is easy to get drunk after drinking. In fact, this is mainly related to the composition of the wine. The wine contains a lot of alcohol. If it is eaten too much, the alcohol will be absorbed by the gastric mucosa after entering the human body, resulting in more alcohol in the blood, which will enter the cerebral vessels through blood circulation, thus affecting the normal operation of the brain and causing drunkenness such as dizziness and dizziness.
Can you drink blush after drinking?
Drinking alcohol is generally not recommended.
People who drink and blush are not advised to drink, because drinking and blushing is mainly due to the mutation of acetaldehyde dehydrogenase gene in the body, which leads to the lack of acetaldehyde dehydrogenase. If they drink again, the capillaries will dilate, resulting in blushing. If such people drink, it is more difficult to completely metabolize alcohol than if they don't blush. In the long run, it will have an impact on liver function. Therefore, it is best for people who drink and blush to drink less to protect liver health.
Why is drinking dizzy?
There are several reasons for drinking dizziness.
1, alcohol influence
Wine contains a lot of alcohol, and a lot of drinking will make alcohol enter the human blood, and alcohol has the effect of inhibiting nerves, thus causing a dizzy feeling.
2. Increased intracranial pressure
After being metabolized by human body, alcohol will be converted into acetaldehyde, and acetaldehyde will cause vasodilation and blood flow acceleration, which will lead to increased intracranial pressure and dizziness.
3. Water loss
After drinking, the human body will urinate a lot, and often go to the toilet. When the number of urination increases, the water loss will also increase, which will cause dizziness, headache and other uncomfortable symptoms.
Tips on how to drink without getting drunk
1, 20 minutes before drinking, drinking milk or water with sugar can dilute alcohol, thus alleviating drunkenness; You can also make a cup of kudzuvine root powder as tea.
2. Not drinking ice water, lemonade and other irritating coolness will stimulate gastric acid secretion, accelerate the absorption of alcohol by gastric mucosa and accelerate drunkenness.
3, drink yogurt, soy products, green leafy vegetables, etc. during drinking, which can alleviate the damage of alcohol to the liver and help the discharge of alcohol, thus alleviating drunkenness.
Why is drinking addictive? 3 What can cause alcoholism?
This is because alcohol can be directly diffused into the blood and distributed throughout the body without digestion. The process of alcohol absorption may begin in the mouth. In the stomach, a small amount of alcohol can be directly absorbed by the stomach wall, and in the small intestine, it will be absorbed quickly and in large quantities. After alcohol is absorbed into the blood, it flows to various organs with the blood, mainly distributed in the liver and brain.
The metabolic process of alcohol in the body is mainly carried out in the liver. A small amount of alcohol can be excreted through the lungs or sweat glands immediately after entering the human body. Most alcohol reacts with alcohol dehydrogenase in the liver to produce acetaldehyde, which is harmful to human body, but it will soon be converted into acetic acid under the action of acetaldehyde dehydrogenase. Acetic acid is the only substance with nutritional value produced after alcohol enters the human body, which can provide the heat needed by the human body. The metabolic rate of alcohol in human body is limited. If you drink too much, alcohol will accumulate in internal organs, especially in the liver and brain. When it is accumulated to a certain extent, symptoms of alcoholism will appear.
How to drink correctly
1, liquor and beer should be paid attention to.
When drinking white wine, drink more boiled water, so that alcohol can be excreted with urine as soon as possible; When drinking beer, you should go to the toilet frequently; You'd better add ice when drinking hard liquor.
2. Eat more green leafy vegetables and soy products when drinking.
Antioxidants and vitamins in green leafy vegetables can protect the liver; Lecithin in bean products also has the function of protecting the liver.
3. Don't gulp down.
Drink slowly, pause from time to time, and don't drink carbonated drinks, such as coke and soda, when drinking, so as not to speed up the body's absorption of alcohol.
4. Don't drink alcohol on an empty stomach.
Eat while drinking, because wine usually stays in the stomach for a long time. If you eat together, the stomach will secrete gastric acid, which will interfere with the absorption of alcohol. When alcohol is absorbed slowly, it is naturally not easy to get drunk, so you must not be able to have an empty stomach when drinking.
5. Never take a bath after drinking.
After drinking alcohol, the stored glucose in the body will be consumed by physical activity when taking a bath, resulting in a decrease in blood sugar content and a sharp drop in body temperature. Alcohol inhibits the normal activity of the liver and hinders the recovery of glucose storage in the body, thus endangering life and causing death.
6, don't drink a variety of wine mixed.
Because the ingredients and contents of various wines are different and mixed with each other, they will change, making people uncomfortable after drinking, even headache and drunkenness.
