Alcohol, as a poison, is recognized by many great poets, scientists and most importantly - doctors. However, there is a modern medical opinion that moderate doses are not harmful to the human body, but, on the contrary, are useful. But such a theory is considered incorrect. On average, a person has about 17 liters of pure alcohol. This amount that a citizen drinks for a year.
Why do 10% of accidents, robberies and the like occur, and 40% end up in hospital wards for health reasons after a while? It's all the fault of regular alcohol consumption.
What happens to the body with constant alcohol consumption
After drinking alcohol in the system there is a failure - stress for the body. It produces endogenous alcohol, which is responsible for the emotional state: love, joy, happiness.When artificial alcohol gets inside, all these emotional regulators fall asleep and with constant alcohol consumption they atrophy. A mental breakdown begins: a person can no longer enjoy ordinary household items, he must increase the dose of alcohol to gain at least a little pleasure in this way. This business regularly deals with moderate drinkers. For them, the holiday without alcohol is not a holiday.
Stages of degradation of people with constant use:
- At this step, one gradually degrades. He can no longer perform simple household duties and deal with basic problems. This stage is called decompensation. Then comes the disease of alcoholism.
- At the last stage, one understands nothing but where to get money for alcohol. He is like a drug addict who can wear and sell household items and accessories to quench his alcohol thirst. Alcoholics justify themselves by the fact that they are not drunkards, but simply that they have a constant hangover.
Regardless of people's status, celebrities can also get it. All this is due to the fact that they consumed alcohol every day and in moderation. This is a clear sign that modern medicine is grossly wrong about the benefits of alcohol.
Consequences of regular and proper drinking
From a medical point of view, alcohol should be drunk at the following norms: drink a glass of wine or a glass of vodka daily. Just add that this amount should be divided into 24 hours a day, it turns out a few drops per minute.
If a person smokes and drinks at the same time, accelerated aging will overtake him.After prolonged alcoholism, the human face becomes:
- in red;
- with convex vessels;
- to swell;
- rough;
- in the last step is blue.
This phenomenon occurs due to the negative effects of alcohol on blood vessels and epithelium. Internal organs are also subject to destructive effects.
Alcohol is not just a poison to health, but makes a person disoriented in society.His psyche is broken, he has no personal guidelines and values. He can do shameful things in front of many people.
If you go deeper into the harm of alcohol on the body, then there are many diseases in the form of:
- cirrhosis of the liver;
- premature aging;
- delirium;
- alcoholic encephalopathy; myocardial dystrophy;
- impotence;
- acute pancreatitis;
- neuroticism and poisoning.
This is not a complete list of diseases associated with chronic alcohol use.
A person who has lived without a drop of alcohol for several months experiences new sensations when changing his worldview. In his eyes, the whole world is changing, and the gray days of the past acquire bright shades of color. The right flow of thoughts begins. The mental emotional background improves. Life becomes full, bright and happy.
Why Teenagers Shouldn't Drink Alcohol

An advanced young man will never be ruined in this way. You will not get out of growing up, but the question arises - how will a teenager grow up after that? All dreams and ideas go downhill, and as they mature, they begin to think, "why was it necessary to do this? "In addition, they also acquire many diseases and spoiled psyche.
