It's hard for friends to stop drinking. There are always various reasons. If you don't drink, I can fight you hard. People often say that a small amount of drinking is good for health. No matter how much wine you drink, even if it doesn't exceed 2 ounces, it will have a bad effect on blood vessels. Long-term drinking is more harmful and will increase the risk of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.
In the past, people still had the illusion that drinking a small amount of alcohol had many benefits to the body, such as dilating blood vessels, lowering blood pressure and promoting sleep. As it turns out, these are all self-consolation, and it is not said that a small amount of drinking is good for the body. As long as you drink, it will damage your health. I suggest you don't drink.
Often drink, but drink very little at a time, no more than 2 ounces. What will happen after a long time?
Harm of alcohol:
First, damage the liver and accelerate the development of cirrhosis.
90% of alcohol needs to be metabolized in the liver, and the rest will directly enter the blood, so the organ most damaged by drinking is the liver. A large amount of alcohol accumulated on the liver can not be discharged in time, which will slowly cause liver fibrosis. It can be said that alcohol is the catalyst of the liver, which shortens the time of liver lesions. It may take ten years or more to develop cirrhosis. If you drink alcohol every day, you may induce cirrhosis within five years.

Second, stimulate the stomach, causing indigestion and vomiting.
People who often drink alcohol will find that their stomachs will be uncomfortable for several days, they have no appetite to eat, they want to vomit when they see greasy things, and they just want to eat light food. This is because alcohol can damage the gastric mucosa. When gastric acid is secreted too much, the body will feel acid reflux and heartburn. If you eat greasy and sticky food, you will have indigestion. When the repair function of gastric mucosa is reduced and it is stimulated by alcohol again, gastric bleeding will occur.

Third, brain-disabled, prone to Alzheimer's disease.
Drinking alcohol can damage the nerves of the brain, making it dull, numb and inarticulate. If you continue to drink regularly after the age of 50, the chances of Alzheimer's disease will greatly increase. You should have noticed that every time you drink too much, your brain will become confused, and sometimes you will drink fragments. I got up the next day with a terrible headache and brain damage in the invisible place.
Fourth, damaging blood vessels is not conducive to controlling the three highs.
Some people say that drinking can dilate blood vessels and lower blood pressure. In fact, alcohol dilates blood vessels for a short time, and then it will contract soon. If you have three high diseases, drinking alcohol will lead to fluctuations in blood lipids, blood pressure and blood sugar, which will increase the burden on blood vessels and is not conducive to controlling the disease.
It can be seen that no matter whether you drink too much or too little, alcohol will do harm to your health. Many people can't control the amount and often drink too much.
