Recently, two bad news about wine appeared.
First, on the early morning of January 4, Chen Qiaoen, a female artist from Taiwan, China, was arrested in Taipei for drunk driving.
Chen Qiao En special love to drink, was called a friend of the circle 'Bacchus.'
It is reported that Chen Qiao En stopped by the police car stopped before and after the alcohol test showed that its breath alcohol concentration of 0.67mg / L. According to traffic regulations in Taiwan, exhaled alcohol concentration of 0.25mg / L, which constitutes a public danger.
0.67 mg / L mean? Some data show that the expiratory alcohol concentration of 0.55mg / L, the driver's sense of balance and judgment will increase the degree of disorder, the accident rate as high as 10 times. And body alcohol concentration exceeds 0.55mg / L , Most people will feel uncomfortable, dizziness, rapid heartbeat, vomiting and so on.
Really rub shoulders Chen Jon's driver and the police immediately pinch Khan.
Second: the international science and technology journal "Nature" magazine released the latest study said: alcohol will lead to DNA double-strand breaks, chromosomal rearrangements, and permanently change the DNA sequence.
To put it in Putonghua, that is to say, under the action of alcohol, healthy stem cells will become 'permanent' and 'irreparable', while previous studies have found that 'variant' stem cells can cause cancer.
Carcinogen Listing Announcement: Acetaldehyde is classified as a Category I carcinogen
'Drinking alcohol to activate blood vessels is good for health' and 'occasional drink' - these statements are widely circulated and there is also a literature, meta-analysis, finding a few links between the decline in alcohol consumption and coronary heart disease.
Wake up! For the sake of overall health, alcohol - even once in a while - is by no means good.
On October 27, 2017, the World Health Organization's International Agency for Research on Cancer released a list of carcinogens, of which acetaldehyde, which is associated with consumption of alcoholic beverages, is classified as a Category I carcinogen.
Cancers in at least seven parts of the body have been shown to be clearly linked to alcohol, including oropharynx, larynx, esophagus, liver, colon, rectum, and breast.
In a review article by Jennie Connor, a professor at the University of Otago, New Zealand, published in Addiction, July 2016, there is a clear 'dose-effect relationship' between alcohol and cancer, ie more alcohol , The greater the risk of cancer.
And research confirms that there is no "safety threshold" for drinking alcohol, which means that as long as it is drunk, it increases the risk.
In addition to cancer, alcohol consumption and a variety of health problems are related to some hard-working people, maybe the fault lies in the greedy cup.
Even if you drink for many years, feel physically strong, no problems, but the face will betray your bad habits!
Britain has organized multiple alcoholics to participate in abstinence.After a while, abstainers began to reduce liver damage due to alcohol consumption, attention and sleep quality improved.
Moreover, abstinence is almost like before the change.
Alcohol is the best care products, there is no!
Asians' can not drink
Drinking is more harmful than drinking it. Looking around the world, people in Asia are more at risk in East Asia.
Studies have found that at least 40% of people in the East Asian region have abnormal alcohol metabolism, that is, after drinking, the body can not metabolize metabolites timely and effectively, and these people have a remarkable characteristic: when they drink, they are flushed.
For people with abnormal alcohol metabolism, even if they drink less and drink more, their risk of developing cancer will be significantly higher than those without alcohol metabolism: a small amount of alcohol should be consumed (1-8.9 units of alcohol, 1 unit of alcohol = 22 Grams of alcohol), risk of esophageal cancer is 5.8 times the normal alcohol-free people.
Do not want to drink but can not quit?
It is said that Chen Qiaoen drunk driving also know that drinking badly.This year in March, she wanted to quit.
But going around in circles, never mind.
This raises another issue, 'alcohol dependence.' This is a type of 'dependence syndrome'.
According to information provided by the World Health Organization, the diagnosis of dependency syndrome usually requires that at least three of the following have been experienced or demonstrated at some time in the past year:
1. A strong desire or impulse to use the substance;
2. The beginning of the use of active substances, the end and the dose is difficult to control;
3. A state of physical withdrawal when the use of the active substance is terminated or reduced, on the basis of a characteristic withdrawal syndrome of the substance; or the use of the same (or some closely allied) substance in order to reduce or avoid withdrawal symptoms The intention of the material
4. The basis of tolerability, for example, the need to use higher doses of psychoactive substances in order to obtain the effect of lower doses in the past (typical examples are found in alcohol and opioid-dependent patients at doses sufficient to cause non-tolerant disability or Death);
5. Gradual neglect of other pleasures or interests resulting from the use of psychoactive substances increases the time taken to acquire, use, or recover from the effects of the substance;
6. Stubbornly use the active substance regardless of its obvious harmful consequences such as liver damage caused by excessive alcohol consumption, depressive mood due to periodic heavy drug use, or impairment of cognitive function associated with the drug; it is important to investigate whether the user actually It has been understood or estimated that the user already knows the nature and severity of the damage.
As the saying goes, "Smoke, wine regardless of family."
In fact, alcohol and tobacco is a family member.
So, love life, stay away from tobacco and alcohol.
