Have you ever asked yourself why you have a headache in the morning after a drunken feast?
It's very simple, alcohol dries your body, and your brain is not an exception. Your brain is compressed by alcohol.

Alcohol is also drunk because it lifts your appetite. Doctors recommend a glass of red wine during the meal if your appetite is weak.

For beer amateurs it is not the alcohol itself which is dangerous, but the excess of liquid, which gives an exorbitant overload for the buds. A lasting beer consumption can not bring to good consequences, and there are proofs it can influence the heart as well.

Unfortunately, it hasn't been invented yet any substance which could make your body relax and, at the same time, make no harm to it. That's why people drink alcohol.

Other methods for replacing of harmful behavior with other relaxing: To throw drinks and do more walks, to talk with family, to telephone friends. People must learn to know. Be aware of what they do well and what does not agree.
When none of these methods do not yield results, it is best to consult a specialist. He may prescribe medication, but also hours of psychotherapy. Medicines act on specific receptors in the brain, limiting the will and desire to drink, and psychotherapy offers psychological support.

There are few cases where it may be noted that, in the same family, alcoholism persist from generation to another. This can be explained in part by the existence of a transmission by genetics.
But beware: not alcoholism is inherited, but a certain vulnerability to alcohol. The way a person lives can directly influence the installation of alcoholics. Conversely, other factors, which belong to the individual's personality and his entourage may have a protective effect against alcohol, even for some person with a high risk of alcohol dependence.

Sustained exercise allows faster elimination of alcohol?
No, alcohol is not a fuel for our body! The energy released by the consumption of alcohol is not immediately and directly used by humans. So, even if an intense effort means more energy consumption, alcohol is always burning the same amount and same speed.
How much you can drink in order not to reach for alcohol problems?
For women: it does not exceed 2 glasses of alcohol (wine, beer) per day.
For men: not to exceed 3 glasses of alcohol (wine, beer) per day.
In the case of occasionally drinkers : not to exceed 4 glasses of alcohol a day, but only if occasions are indeed very rare!
Re: People and alcohol - Peach - 09-23-2009
Alcohol warms, invigorating effect or you stay in shape?
These beliefs are totally wrong with all that is deep rooted among the people. Regardless of color, perfume and taste of drinking alcohol, it doesn't reinvigorate, doesn't protect us from the flu, cold and do not keep us in shape.
We all know the story of the grandfather who, despite advanced age, is in very good shape, and it's due to regular consumption of alcohol. But you should know that all this is a big fake!
