Revealing the six "lies" about drinking. Does a red face mean you won't get drunk easily?

Many people have the habit of drinking, or many people have to drink in their daily lives. Experts say that drinking alcohol can easily harm your body, but if you pay attention to regulation, the harm to your body will be reduced. However, some people easily fall into misunderstandings about drinking and have wrong views on various aspects of drinking, as if they were deceived by "lies".

1. Tobacco and alcohol are inseparable

Some people believe that "a cigarette and a glass of wine make you as happy as a god." Especially when you are in the mood for drinking, if someone passes you a cigarette, even those who do not usually smoke will say "I'm so happy today" and light it up. But in fact, drinking and smoking at the same time can damage your liver and lungs. Because the nicotine in cigarettes weakens the effect of alcohol on the human body, which is equivalent to being "anesthetized", you will unknowingly greatly increase your drinking amount.

2. Drinking makes your face red and you don’t get drunk easily

"People who blush when drinking don't get drunk easily." This sentence is often used as a reason to persuade people to drink at banquets. But in fact, being drunk has little to do with complexion. Some people believe that having a red face like Guan Gong after drinking is a good thing. They believe that it means good blood circulation, which can quickly break down alcohol, so it is not easy to get drunk. But experts point out that there is not much relationship between alcohol consumption and complexion, as it varies from person to person. In fact, the reason why many people believe that people who blush when drinking are less likely to get drunk is that people with red faces are generally less likely to be persuaded to drink, so they drink less. In addition, they feel sleepy after drinking, and they will be energetic again after sleeping for 15-30 minutes. People with pale faces often do not know their bottom line and drink excessively in a state of high excitement. 3. White wine is harmful to the body, but red wine is good for the body

In daily life, some people always think that low-alcohol liquor is a mixture of alcohol and pure water, which tastes bland, while high-alcohol liquor is mostly brewed from grains, which does not make people drunk and tastes more exciting. In fact, a higher alcohol content means a higher alcohol content. Because more than 90% of the alcohol that enters the body is metabolized through the liver, large amounts of alcohol increase the liver's detoxification burden. The higher the alcohol content and the greater the intake, the more serious the damage to the liver. In addition, the decomposition of alcohol by the liver requires the participation of multiple enzymes and vitamins. The higher the alcohol content of the wine, the more enzymes and vitamins the body consumes.
