Can you drink beer when you have a cold or fever? Beer lovers must know this

Colds and fevers are common in daily life. Doctors always tell us to pay attention to our diet and not to drink alcohol. This is a tough time for people who love drinking, so they try to hope for the best and think that beer has a low alcohol content and should be drinkable. In fact, although beer has a low alcohol concentration, it still contains alcohol, so you should not drink beer when you have a cold or fever.

1. You should not drink beer when you have a cold or fever, because beer is a digestive food that easily consumes a lot of energy, and a cold requires the body's energy to produce immunity. Drinking beer will reduce your immunity. Some colds are caused by drinking.

2. Some people say that if you have a cold, you should drink some alcohol to make yourself sweat, and you will get better soon. But in fact, doing so will not make your cold get better quickly, but will make it worse! You should know that alcohol needs your liver and kidneys to break it down and excrete it after it enters your body. But when you have a cold, your liver and kidneys have to deal with the cold virus in your body, and you want them to divide their efforts to deal with alcohol. In this way, can your cold get better quickly?

3. Furthermore, you must take medicine if you have a cold. Some medicine instructions clearly state that it is strictly forbidden to drink alcohol after taking cold medicine. If you ask why, I can only tell you that the medicine you take can produce a chemical reaction with alcohol, and this chemical reaction can seriously lead to death! This is not alarmist, please cherish your life.

4. In addition, beer is a spicy food. Drinking it can easily hurt your throat, thus aggravating the condition, which is not worth the loss. Therefore, drinking beer when you have a cold is harmful and has no benefits. For the sake of your own health, you'd better bear with it. After all, good health is the first priority.
