Drinking alcohol is particularly harmful to your body, in any amount, according to scientists
We all, more or less, consume alcohol almost every day. Even those who are generally non-alcoholics find it a pleasant habit, a relaxing treat at the end of a hard day.
And yes, alcohol has this magical ability to make you relax, unwind and feel better. And yes, none of us think that it can be bad for health. Because quite simply it is an innocent, such a small drink.
However, alcohol is alcohol and it has negative effects on your health, especially if it is on a daily basis.
The truth
There was a saying that “a glass of wine a day keeps the doctor away”, or a glass of wine is good for the heart and stuff like that.
But now, with the new facts of science, it is time to see the truth in the face and understand that all these were words of defense of this small and seemingly innocent glass.
Because unfortunately, for all of us, the scientists spoke and were even categorical. Alcohol consumption is particularly harmful to your body, in any quantity. And especially if it’s on a daily basis, things are even worse.
Dr. Johnston, an addiction specialist, reveals that alcohol has negative effects, even in small doses. And he is even categorical that alcohol is a bad and unhealthy habit.
In general, frequent alcohol consumption causes upset stomach, increased blood pressure, as well as anxiety and depression. Also, in more severe cases, alcohol causes liver damage, neurological disorders, sexual impotence and heart disease.
Also, drinking every day increases your chances of becoming dependent on alcohol, which is a particularly serious and dangerous condition. So, even if it is still a relaxation drink, daily consumption can turn it into a relationship of dependence and alcoholism.
Age also plays an important role. Recent research has shown that frequent alcohol consumption in people under 40 poses greater risks. The daily recommended amounts are limited to two to three tablespoons of beer.
And if you still think that you don’t drink much or don’t drink on a daily basis, the above should convince you that alcohol is a bad habit, particularly harmful to yourself.
So redefine your habits.
