Everyone knows that alcoholic beverages are harmful to health.More than a thousand brochures, articles, television programs, books and equipment on the Internet are devoted to it.But that says only one thing - about the scale of the problem of drunkenness, only one country in the world has not yet been able to solve.
But is it an evil?Or are there little authorized doses of alcohol, what health risk can be avoided?Let's try to understand this problem in more detail.
1. Body alcohol is a toxic substance
This declaration is undeniable and does not need evidence.They are sufficiently given in official scientific and medical works.Therefore, it is possible to talk about the safety of a particular dose of alcohol only conditionally.Most often, we are talking about drinking so little during the party that the next day, you do not feel the pernicious consequences of poisoning, which is commonly called wooden.But, of course, it is not worth the hope of hoping that the effect of poisoning ethanol will not affect in the future.Will affect.Perhaps not now, but with regular use of small doses of alcohol, the consequences on health will be.What is the serious, the question is individual.
2. Alcohol consumption standards for people with various stages of dependence
Alcohol consumption is classified as a disease.Therefore, there are certain alcohol consumption criteria, according to which the doctor can determine at what stage of dependence is a person.People who can be purely accidentally, having been to celebration, without a special desire for the company to have a drink or two wine in medical terminology are called glitter and weakly drink.Their consumption indicators are 200 to 300 g of alcohol per year, or even less.
Drinking moderately I can allow myself half a liter of strong per year with a frequency of 3 to 4 times a month.
Systematically drink alcoholic beverages at least twice a week.In this case, the diagnosis of alcoholism of the first degree is already underway.
If the amount exceeds 800 g, this is direct proof that the disease is at the intermediate stage and that the patient needs the help of narcologists.
3. Harmless standards for the female body
The data we give below correspond to WHO's recommendations for a safe quantity of alcohol, which can be consumed by an adult woman.But there are many reserves concerning weight growth parameters and consumption frequency.Based on the authorized numbers, per day, we have 130 ml of wine 15 degrees, 330 ml of beer and 50 ml of vodka.And this despite the fact that a person does not drink more than once a week.The above indicators correspond approximately to 20 g of pure ethanol.
4. Alcohol indicators sure of men
In men, in comparison with the ladies, the license limits will be slightly higher - 30 g of pure ethanol.If we consider specific alcoholic drinks, this will correspond to 75 ml of vodka, half a liter of beer and a glass of wine.However, this does not at all mean that the male body is more of strokes with alcohol.Recall that in the percentage ratio, male drunkenness is still in the lead.It is an anthropometric difference.
5. On the basis of what alcohol standards are calculated?
Paul is only one of the parameters taken into account when it comes to determining the minimum possible quantity of alcohol, which can be consumed relatively safely.Among other factors, which will actually be more important: the size, weight and age of a person.It is clear that for an elderly person or a teenager, these criteria will be lower than that of a large adult person with a decent body weight.By the way, the helpless standard depends directly on the weight and is 1.5 ml of pure alcohol per kg of body weight.It's just over 3.5 ml of vodka per kg.
