It is normal for a majority of citizens, especially for youth, to sit in a park with a bottle in a cultural way . And "sentenced" to half a liter of beer, gin and tonic and boys, and girls. That's why the patients of the Center for Addiction Therapy are often young ladies 19-22 years old, even from quite well-to-do families ...
Another statement - the men are better against fire water, alcohol - a harmful and useless drink. Alcohol, which is available in all grades without exception, alcoholic drinks, acts equally - on the representatives of both sexes. When the organism of a lady or gentleman gets C2H-OH, it splits alcohol dehydrogenase, a special enzyme that is contained in the human body.
It turns out the substance - acetaldehyde. And from it, under the action of another enzyme - acetaldehyde dehydrogenase, there is an ocet (vinegar). This vinegar moves all over the body - and, as they say, it hits the brain. In an individual, a podshofe is often dizzy, he confuses words. Is the snack dose small? The person is quickly sobering up, and his brain is recovering. But if you drink bitter regularly, you can develop irreversible processes in the brain. The drinker is disturbed by logical thinking, he will faintly think. In this state, there may be gentlemen and ladies. The only thing that matters is the amount of alcohol consumed. The degree of intoxication depends on the weight of a person. Body weight in men is usually larger. Therefore, the same dose of alcohol - a harmful and useless drink, will affect the couple in different ways. She gets drunk faster than he does.
Do not give vodka?
So, the first visit to his home, candlelight dinner, on the table - a bottle of sparkling champagne or a restrained Beaujolais ... To write down a man into potential alcoholics? Of course not! Degree drinks, if drunk in moderation, create a sense of euphoria, liberate, give birth to a festive atmosphere. There is no tragedy if on Friday, after a busy working week, he misses a glass or two of brandy. And even if he happens to bust at the birthday of the best friend - to call his chosen one a drunkard rather early. He just did not calculate his strength. How can you determine if a heartfelt friend is close to comprehending the three? If he drinks a little, but every day - this is already cause for concern. Experts call this state alpha alcoholism (the initial stage of habituation).
The dose may also increase (it consumes not 50, but 100-150 grams more). There are people who drink alcohol quite a lot. And they do not become addicted to alcohol. Narcologists are advised to pause - not to get involved. Time for a break is different for everyone. If there is no traction, the person calmly passes into a state of sobriety. But if he asks: "How many days should I not drink? And when can I start? "- these are already signs of dependence. Such an individual needs consultation from a specialist. The obvious sign of alcoholism is when a person goes into drinking. The husband drinks without a breath for weeks, then throws? Then he returns to the "blonde in the glass" again? It's time to hold confidential conversations with him. And does not help - contact the expert in narcology. And the last stage is gamma-alcoholism. When a citizen drinks a lot, every day - and can not stop. Such a person needs urgent treatment for dependence.
Arguments and Facts
However, for women's requests not to drink from men prepared a whole list of arguments in favor of the coveted 100 grams. How justified are such arguments?
Alcohol is a harmful and useless drink, as many of us believe. But some people think that a little alcohol strengthens the heart. Some cardiologists say that "three drops" of cognac protect the male heart. Other specialists disprove the theory of reasonable drinking. To prevent cardiovascular diseases, other, less extreme measures can be taken. For example, often breathe fresh air, less nervous, engage in moderate physical activity. And if the heart malfunctions, you need to go to the cardiologist. A glass instead of tablets will do harm.
A glass is a cure for stress. This is true. But the trick is that about the problems of the daily allow you to forget 20-30 ml of vodka or 40 ml of wine. But who drinks with such thimble doses? Usually, "our people" are treated for mental shakes with glasses - and the consequences of stress become even more palpable.
Vodka is needed for warming
The statement is controversial. A little alcohol (50 grams of vodka or cognac) dilates blood vessels, stimulates blood circulation. A frozen person first feels better. But then comes the opposite effect. The drinker increases heat output, he loses heat. Therefore belenkaya can not become warm clothes.
Not a drop of alcohol is suspicious. This is partly true. A person who refuses to drink in the company may be in the past an alcoholic who has been treated for such predilection. It is enough for him to take at least a little bit to get out of the race again. For some reason, it is believed that a complete teetotaler may not have everything in order with the psyche. In fact, there are quite normal people - athletes, climbers, who have never been addicted, and "with a head" they are doing well. They do not drink, because they do not want to. All individually. Therefore, before rushing to conclusions, you need to find out why a man rejects alcohol.
Beer to the peasant - like lemonade
In fact, light alcohol is a heavy consequence. In medicine there is the term "beer alcoholism". Why get used to drink pennuyu? But because 2 liters of beer per day (in such quantities, it is usually consumed by our citizens) in terms of alcohol content equal to 200-250 grams of vodka! If a person drinks a glass of gorilla in a day - his household quickly recover, take action. A beer, according to popular belief, and alcohol, it does not count. Therefore, the head of the family, daily relaxing a couple of bottles of beer, eventually becomes an alcoholic. In addition, beer is the most harmful drink for men. It contains phytoestrogens, which block the action of the male hormone testosterone. Of course, half a glass of beer once a week or two on the macho does not affect. But if you abuse this drink, the chosen one can gradually turn into a middle-class creature. He will become obese by the female type - with narrow shoulders, wide hips, there will be less hair on the body and face. And the character will change. A beer lover will lose "healthy male aggression". He will cease to be the earner. But the "traditional alcoholic horror stories" - wine, cognac, whiskey, vodka on the body of a man is not so badly affected. If, of course, drink them seldom and in reasonable quantities.
Resistance to vodka in my blood
In fact, the ability to stay at the table is inherited. There are people with a high level of alcohol dehydrogenase, an enzyme that breaks down ethyl alcohol. As a rule, they are inhabitants of wine-growing regions - Italy, Georgia, other countries. Such lucky people normally tolerate alcohol, rarely fall into dependence on it. But there are also citizens who have little alcohol dehydrogenase. This, for example, representatives of northern peoples. The inhabitants of Ukraine - the so-called polymorphism: some of the genes are resistant to alcohol, some do not. You can determine your level by passing a special biochemical analysis. Results pleased? This is not an excuse to drink vodka with buckets. Even a large amount of the "anti-alcohol" enzyme will not save you from alcoholism if you do not know the extent of drinking.
A good snack - hops are not terrible. Indeed, competently organized feast - a pledge that the morning will not hurt your head. For half an hour or an hour before the start of the holiday, doctors recommend drinking a lightly light alcoholic beverage (for example, dry wine). The starter cup activates enzymes that process alcohol, and even large doses of alcohol will be tolerated more easily. Then you need to eat a small portion of some fatty dish - for example, a piece of fatty fish. Alcohol will be absorbed more slowly. So a person will last longer at the table. And, of course, you need to know your dose so as not to drink too much. Then any holiday - with or without alcohol - will be in joy.
