This drink is especially revered by men for its ability to quickly relax after a tiring workday, as well as refresh and quench thirst on a hot day. Yes and viewing football match Just like a Saturday meeting with friends is also rarely complete without a foamy, intoxicating drink. There is a lot of discussion about whether it is possible to drink alcohol, although the main problem is considered not so much consumption as the amount consumed. low alcohol drinks.

The benefits and harms of a foamy drink

ABOUT beneficial properties And harmful influence There are a lot of myths about beer, scientists and famous professors argue about it. Fans of this drink claim that beer, known in ancient times, brings health benefits to the body. enormous benefit, confirming this with research. But we cannot close our eyes to the obvious harm of beer for humans. Who is right and how should one treat the foamy drink?

Useful qualities

Even in ancient times, beer was considered healing agent, relieving many diseases. Koch also discovered the destructive effect of a foamy drink on the pathogen of such dangerous disease like cholera. When a similar epidemic raged across Europe, foamy drink saved many lives.

Beer has a rich and multi-component composition, including:

• vitamins (riboflavin, ascorbic acid, thiamine, pyridoxine, K, biotin, etc.);
• acids (folic, pantothenic, nicotinic, etc.);
• trace elements (phosphorus, potassium, silicon, sulfur, etc.).

Drinking beer in moderation improves metabolic processes and reduces the likelihood of cardiovascular or malignant pathologies. The foamy drink helps remove aluminum salts, which provoke the development of dementia (or senile dementia). Is drinking beer healthy? During hot weather, the drink helps to quickly quench thirst, and some of its varieties even contain substances that have a destructive effect on kidney stones. Hops compounds have a calming and analgesic effect and improve gastric activity.

Harmful effects

If you drink beer every day, it will not have any beneficial effect, but it can cause irreparable harm to the body. Men are not recommended to abuse this drink, since it contains substances identical to female hormones (estrogens). These substances affect male body so that subsequently, if you drink a lot of beer, a man’s body changes according to the female type: the hips widen, the breasts increase, etc.

The problem of beer alcoholism

Many supporters of “beer drinking” do not consider this drink to be alcohol; for them it is a pleasant means of relaxation and communication. But beer contains ethanol, so it is considered a full-fledged, albeit low-alcohol, alcoholic drink. And it does no less harm than vodka. Beer addiction seriously threatens your health.

How to determine that a person has developed beer alcoholism:

1. he categorically denies his dependence on the drink, arguing that if he wants, he can stop drinking beer at all, although an alcohol-dependent person is no longer able to give it up on his own;
2. drinks beer every day, and over time he needs an increasingly larger dose of beer to be completely satisfied;
3. a person dependent on beer is constantly in a bad mood; if he drinks a bottle, then his mood immediately rises, but if he cannot drink beer, then he may experience a surge of aggression;
4. the breathing of alcohol-dependent people becomes heavy and noisy, the body becomes flabby and loose, bags form under the eyes;
5. starting to drink every day, a man wears out his cardiovascular system, the myocardium becomes flabby and can no longer function fully, as a result, heart failure develops;
6. sexual problems, the appearance of excess weight, sleep disorders.

I think we have answered the question of whether beer every day is harmful. The problem of beer alcoholism is one of the leading ones today. Such addiction is very difficult to cure, and more and more teenagers are becoming beer alcoholics.

Determining the norm

Often in response to his wife's remark about excessive consumption beer, the husband brushes off that he knows his norm. What kind of parameter is this, and how to determine your alcohol limit so as not to blush the next day for your drunken behavior. Each person has their own tolerance to alcohol and alcoholic drinks affect everyone differently. Intoxication occurs most slowly when drinking low-alcohol drinks such as beer or wine. Vodka and cognac make people drunk much faster.

Only through “trial and error” can you find your norm in alcohol, namely, from your own experience, counting after which glass you felt too good. Scientists have found that per day the body of a person weighing 70 kg is able to process only 170 g of pure ethyl alcohol.

If we talk about a safe daily norm, then Russian doctors, in search of an answer to the question of how to determine the norm of drinking, came to the following conclusions: a man can drink a maximum of half a liter bottle of beer per day, women - 0.33 liters. It is these doses that will not have a detrimental effect on health.

The effect of an intoxicating drink on a woman’s body

If earlier beer was considered purely men's drink during football, then now the fair sex began to abuse the foamy drink. But beer is, to put it mildly, not good for the female body. Every woman tries to take care of her appearance, and beer has a very unfavorable effect on her. It has been proven that the drink worsens the condition of hair and skin; as a result of beer abuse, the hair becomes dull and thin, begins to fall out, and the skin becomes dry, flaky and cracked.

Appearance isn't everything that beer affects. Weight is considered an equally sore subject for women, and a foamy drink promotes weight gain. extra pounds. But the appearance that has suffered from beer abuse is not the worst thing, it’s much more more dangerous consequences for internal systems and organs.

Beer and hormones

Scientists have found out what will happen if a woman drinks beer every day. As a result of such abuse, a woman's hormonal system is seriously imbalanced. Observations have shown that beer affects a woman’s hormonal background in such a way that she develops male characteristics. The reason for this is hops, the cones of which contain a large number of phytoestrogens. By the way, in men, these substances provoke feminization processes, when the male figure takes on feminine outlines.

Consequences of female beer addiction

What happens if you drink a lot of beer every day? For the female body, such an addiction can have dire consequences:

1. impossibility of motherhood. Infertility develops due to an excess of estrogens, which are produced by the female body and also enter it with beer. Such hormonal excess leads to irregular menstruation, swelling of the uterine walls, and obstruction of the tubes. All this prevents a woman from becoming pregnant and bearing a child.
2. pathology internal organs. The foamy drink causes heart and cancer diseases, pathologies of the esophagus and stomach.
3. Against the background of beer abuse, women develop obesity, sexual behavior changes, which manifests itself in an uncontrollable desire for sexual intimacy, when a woman does not bother choosing a partner for sex.
4. masculine features are acquired - hair appears on the chest, the voice becomes rough, a mustache and a beer belly grow.

The words of still young girls looking for advice on various forums are striking: “I drink beer every day, what should I do?” Give up this business immediately, fight beer alcoholism with all available means.

The dangers of drinking beer every day

Not only on female body beer has a detrimental effect; for men, the foamy drink is no less harmful. Millions of representatives of the stronger sex drink beer every day in the evenings, not even suspecting all the dangers lurking in this low-alcohol drink. Is it possible to drink alcohol every day if it contains few degrees? Narcologists say that fewer degrees does not reduce harmful effects low-alcohol products, therefore the attitude towards such drinks should be the same as towards strong alcohol.

• due to the presence of cadaverine in beer, slow destruction of brain cells occurs, leading to personal destruction and dementia;
• The heart suffers no less from beer. Cobalt and carbon dioxide in beer harm the cellular tissues of the myocardium, causing an increase in its size, leading to flabbiness and failure of the organ;
• Beer addiction negatively affects the condition of the kidneys and digestive organs. The diuretic effect of the drink causes leaching useful elements and kidney overload. The liver also suffers, undergoing inflammatory diseases and cirrhosis;
• The male reproductive system also suffers - the production of sex hormones stops, and problems with testicular function appear. As a result, a man gradually loses interest and sexual attraction to the opposite sex.

This is what happens if you drink beer every day. For example, narcologists generally equate this drink with narcotic drugs. Having taken a fair amount of this drink, a man becomes more aggressive and hot-tempered, so beer libations often end in crime.

Let's sum it up

So, if you drink beer every day, addiction will form, and then beer alcoholism. Organs and systems will gradually be exposed to the destructive effects of ethanol until their functionality is impaired. You need to treat alcohol as a medicine and take it in strictly dosage, then harmful consequences you won't have to think.

Is it possible to drink beer every day? You can, but no more than a half-liter bottle. And this takes into account that you do not suffer from any chronic pathologies and are not prone to alcohol addiction. In other words, such a dosage is permissible only for healthy people.

Why is it legal to buy alcohol at the age of 18?

Good day! Please tell me why in Russia the sale of alcohol to citizens over the age of 18 is allowed? At this age, do some changes occur in the human body that make drinking alcohol less harmful than before the age of 18? And in America, as far as I know, only from 21 - what is more correct? Or can Russians do it earlier due to tradition?

And one more question on the same topic. Few young people actually wait until their 18th birthday to try alcohol for the first time. Almost everyone starts drinking earlier. What exactly is the point of banning the sale of alcohol to people under 18? For teenagers to try alcohol under the supervision of more experienced elders (who are already over 18)? To try alcohol for the first time, if possible, with your family, and not in the alley with your peers? Just to make you think again? After all, those who want to drink will be able to get booze at any age. Thanks in advance for your answers!

Polina, the question is completely unrelated to medicine, so I can only answer it as a layman. It seems to me that the threshold of 18 years was set because from this age a person is considered an adult, which means he is fully capable of recognizing the consequences of his actions and being independently responsible for them.

Rolls and sushi - the right snack or not?

Hello, Stanislav. I read the article “How to snack properly.” It is clear that vegetables, fruits and sauerkraut are good, but for me, for example, any dose of alcohol causes a strong appetite and the above foods do not satisfy my hunger. What can you say about sushi, rolls, etc. as a snack? It seems that the food is quite light, and rice is in some way an adsorbent.

Tatiana, Japanese food spicy Hot spices and seasonings slow down the oxidation of alcohol and increase the vulnerability of the pancreas. If this does not scare you, then there are no other obstacles.

Unfortunately, most people do not know any other way to solve their problems than to pour alcohol on them. However, this option does not save the situation, except that it allows you to speak out and temporarily forget. And the next morning others join in the problems - headache, nausea, weakness and others. And the situation may repeat itself: the person drinks again to forget... What happens to those whose “friendship” with alcohol becomes a daily habit?

About the symptoms of alcoholism

It's not hard to guess that everything bad habits They take root in our body very quickly, unlike good ones. Narcologists emphasize that you can become an alcoholic within a year, and at any age. And representatives of the fairer sex are more prone to this.

If you drink every day, you can easily turn into an alcoholic. And this is no longer a person, but a pitiful creature, an individual who has only one goal in life - to drink.

The initial stage of alcoholism is when a man or woman increasingly drinks at the table, getting pleasure from this and oblivion. The person’s mood improves, and he is ready for any revelations with strangers. It is obvious that he is pushed to drink alcohol by internal psychological problems, conflicts with loved ones or colleagues.

A novice drunkard has good reasons and reasons to drink. Therefore, most of us cannot dare to call him an alcoholic. Everyone drinks! But, as doctors say, the incubation period for the formation of addiction can last from a year to 15 years. If a person has a genetic predisposition to alcoholism, then this will happen faster. In other words, within 6 months a person will be at the first stage of addiction. It is characterized by the disappearance of the body's protective reaction to the entry of alcohol into the body - the cessation of vomiting and nausea. A man boasts about the amount of alcohol he drinks and is brave about his toughness. However, in fact, these are alarming signals that indicate addiction to alcohol.

The addict no longer feels an aversion to strong drinks, so the single portion of alcohol consumed is constantly increasing. But the family budget or personal wallet suffers from this, because it is alcohol that comes first. A person is no longer interested in moral values, healthy recreation, or family problems. Signs of the first stage of alcoholism are isolated memory loss, pain in the stomach and pancreas. Addicts find it difficult to control their use strong drinks, and they don’t want to do this, because they refuse to admit that they are sick. At the first stage of alcoholism, they strive for society, they like to make people laugh, joke, talk and discuss any topic.

Further, if nothing is done, the second stage of addiction develops. It is characterized by the fact that a person simply cannot live without alcohol. Dependence becomes mental and physical. In life, an energetic and optimistic person turns into an aggressor, who is not stopped by the tears of his children, mother, and wife. The bottle becomes the main friend in life. Memory lapses become regular, a person goes on binges, and then withdrawal symptoms occur. This is what you can expect if a person drinks daily.

About the possible consequences of drinking alcohol every day

So, the last stage of alcoholism is when small portion alcohol, a person already gets very drunk, because his body is simply exhausted, weakened, prematurely aged from alcohol intoxication.

He spends most of his time binge drinking and work is out of the question. The only desire driving an alcoholic in the final stage is to drink. He experiences mental seizures, delirium tremens, cramps in the limbs, headaches and heart pain, and shortness of breath. But the only cure for him is the same drink. So, the human appearance is lost, the brain is damaged, there is no immunity, there is no family, the body dies painfully. There is a desire to commit suicide, because it is practically impossible to get out of the last stage of alcoholism on your own. Relatives and friends are unable to help a chronic alcoholic, who until recently was an authority figure for children, a mentor for colleagues, a friend for his wife, and a support for his mother.

How to stay healthy and live as long as possible is a question that all of us ask sooner or later. Life expectancy is influenced by a number of factors and our habits, one of which is drinking alcohol. How long do alcoholics live, and what affects their life expectancy – we’ll talk about this in the article.

1

Daily drinking leads to the development of alcoholism and degradation. The result of drinking alcoholic beverages every day is addiction, which takes away everything from a person: family, work, friends, willpower and determination, health, the meaning of life. Alcohol gradually kills a person as an individual. Before finding out how long alcoholics live, you should analyze what diseases they develop and what they ultimately die from.

Man alcohol

Drinking alcohol every day negatively affects anyone; in just a couple of weeks such a person withers and wastes away. Doctors have proven that alcohol in any dose suppresses creativity, reduces initiative, intelligence, social activity, and sexual abilities. American scientists conducted a series of experiments, during which it was found that drinking 200 g of dry wine daily for 18-20 days suppresses intelligence. Those who drank twice a month had permanently reduced mental performance.

Alcohol poison provokes structural changes in the body, and with prolonged drinking, tissues atrophy, changes in the brain are especially noticeable. The cerebellum and cerebral hemispheres are the first to atrophy. Even those who drink on holidays experience changes in brain structure. Scientists from Sweden have found that cortical cells die and a “shrinked brain” is observed after 4 years of continuous drinking. In addition to brain problems, alcoholics have the following health problems:

• progressive liver destruction and exacerbation of cirrhosis, fibrosis;
• disruptions in cardiac activity and blood flow;
• personality degradation against the background of a decrease in intellectual abilities;
• rapid skin aging;
• disruption of the urinary system.

Also, do not forget about the decrease in libido and reproductive function in both men and women. The list of diseases that develop due to alcohol consumption is inexhaustible.

Many diseases do not appear for many years, but this does not mean that they do not exist. At one “wonderful” moment they worsen and become the cause of death. If a person does this every day, he deliberately leads himself to death and shortens his life expectancy. Modern medicine claims that it is impossible to meet an alcoholic who has celebrated his centenary. They do not live long, but die at a young age from diseases.

Man after drinking alcohol

The average life expectancy of a man who drinks a bottle every day is 48-55 years. When consumed lethal dose of ethyl alcohol, the body is unable to resist the poison and symptoms of a hangover, so death from intoxication and overdose is often observed. In 2014 in the UK World Organization Healthcare studies were conducted on the topic: life expectancy of alcoholics, during which the following data were announced:

• alcohol is the cause of death for 2.5 million people every year;
• the main reason high mortality– large consumption of alcohol (20 liters per year);
• a person who drinks 8 liters of alcohol per year or more gradually degrades;
• The average life expectancy of an alcoholic in European countries is 55-58 years, and in Russia this figure is much lower.

The death of an addict occurs from a lethal dose when the body is unable to cope with the negative consequences of alcohol consumption. What dose of alcohol is lethal? Doctors and scientists do not give an exact answer to this question, since every organism is individual. There are only average values ​​in liters and ppm. The unit permille is a thousandth, i.e. 1 ppm means that there is 1 ml in a liter of human blood pure alcohol. The lethal dose in ppm will be 5-6 units, so at 2.5 ppm severe intoxication occurs.

If we count in liters, then a bottle of vodka contains 200 ml of alcohol, i.e. 2.5 ppm. That's why healthy person A person who drinks 3 bottles of vodka can die from a lethal dose. But at the same time, drinking alcohol in such a volume should be in a short period of time (30-60 minutes), without symptoms of nausea and vomiting. If we talk about wine and beer, then the situation is different, since the concentration of alcohol in them is much lower than in vodka. In such a short period of time a person cannot drink so much beer or wine.

The likelihood of death due to alcohol intake largely depends on age, weight and chronic diseases. A young body and an old man’s body are much more sensitive to alcohol. Pathologies (brain stroke, intestinal cancer, cirrhosis of the liver, paralysis) are also the cause of death in alcoholics. Stop the pathology with surgical intervention in alcoholics it does not make sense, since complications during treatment are quite serious. Therefore, against the background of diseases that can appear even in innocent drinking man, as well as pathologies from drinking alcohol every day, it makes no sense to talk about longevity. Although there are always exceptions!

In practice, there are cases when a person drinks every day, feels great and has no health problems. And there are those who, after only drinking a couple of glasses of vodka, end up in a hospital bed. Such clinical pictures do exist; doctors call such alcoholics phenomenal. Why is this possible? If men drink daily, the body adapts to toxic substances and develops a kind of immunity. Of course, against the background of alcoholism, the state of the internal organs and systems is not ideal, but in general, vitality is maintained, and this can last for several years.

Glass with cognac

It is dangerous for such alcoholics not to drink daily; if the usual dose of alcohol is missing, this can lead to inevitable death.

Doctors note that it is better for such phenomenal people to drink regularly, without disturbing the rhythm set over the years and without reducing the degree. If a person does not abuse alcohol, but drinks on holidays, he should be wary of an overdose. In an organism that is not accustomed to negative impact ethyl alcohol, with increasing doses, health problems may appear that will lead to fatal outcome. Another dangerous phenomenon for alcoholics who quit drinking is relapse; such breakdowns can end in disaster.

Serious health problems are not the only threat to the life of a person who drinks every day. Under the influence of ethyl alcohol and fusel oils Most alcoholics change their attitude towards life and society in general. Alcoholics are quite irritable, nervous, conflict-ridden and ready to resolve any conflict and dispute, which lead to the most unpredictable consequences. This is why the life of an alcohol-dependent person can be unexpectedly interrupted due to fights, murder, violence, or suicide.

Young people drinking beer

Most often, alcoholics die in an ambulance with a concussion followed by hemorrhage, internal bleeding, punctured lungs and other injuries incompatible with life. Such cases usually occur at a young age. Statistics show that 60% of those convicted of robbery committed their crimes in order to find money for drinks. About 20% of domestic, 46% of street and 18% of workplace injuries are associated with intoxication. 90% of gun crimes are committed by people while intoxicated. Alcohol also caused quarrels and fights in 85% of cases, and this list goes on and on.

That is why we can conclude that alcohol not only causes direct harm to our health, but can also cause death at a young age. By minimizing your drinking, you can save your life and the lives of those around you and live a happy, long life in harmony with your own body and mind.

General intoxication of the body due to low-quality alcoholic beverages is another cause of death among alcoholics. The diagnosis is made by pathologists for most former alcoholics. Accumulated poisons that enter the body along with low-quality alcohol are not eliminated naturally, and liver functions are impaired and cannot cope. It is extremely difficult to save such a clinical alcoholic, and intoxication leads to painful death.

Man after intoxication in hospital

The consequences of alcohol intoxication for a weakened and sick body are quite severe, and it cannot cope with them. Most alcoholics die from poisoning at the age of 35-45 years. While it is still possible to save a novice alcoholic, it is impossible to save a person who drinks every day. The life expectancy of alcoholics is short, and death often occurs in young people.

"How long does an alcoholic live?" – there is no clear answer to this question. The only thing that can be said is that a person who is addicted to alcohol is unlikely to live a long and happy life. Real long-livers, of course, allowed themselves to drink alcohol, for example. But their main secret is moderation. A person always has the right to choose, he chooses what and how much to drink, or maybe he should give up alcohol altogether?

Unfortunately, many are deprived of this right due to their addiction. Therefore, once again taking a glass, think about whether you are ready to give your best years and follow the lead of alcohol? If the answer is no, give up alcohol!

If a person occasionally allows himself a glass or two, nothing bad happens. It is important not to miss the moment when the need for alcohol becomes daily. Gradually, a person becomes a slave to his habit, which leads to a terrible disease - alcoholism.

Stages of alcoholism

If urgent measures are not taken, addiction becomes more and more serious. Alcohol is involved in some metabolic cellular processes, so small doses of ethanol are synthesized by the body independently. This requires a significant amount of energy.

Receiving alcohol from the outside, the body happily mistakes it for doping and uses the released energy for other needs. By providing a daily supply of doping, a person trains his body not to produce the substance he needs. This is why it is so difficult to quit drinking: the body’s reaction to the absence of doping can be very acute.

Alcohol is necessary for the body minimum quantity, measured in nanograms. Large quantities act as a nerve poison.

The body reacts accordingly: taste buds become very irritated, the person feels the taste of alcohol as quite strong; the body turns on a defense mechanism and tries to get rid of the toxic substance through vomiting. At the first, easiest stage of alcoholism, these defensive reactions are turned off - there is no urge to vomit, and the taste of alcohol ceases to be unpleasant.

Small amounts of alcohol stop having an effect on a person, he begins to drink more alcohol in order to achieve a blissful state of euphoria. It’s worth thinking about what to do and whether you should continue drinking alcohol if you drank a lot at a party, and the next day you have memory problems.

The second stage of alcoholism is characterized by physiological addiction to alcohol. The body begins to demand alcohol, refusing to function normally. You can notice this stage by paying attention to the psycho-emotional state of a person: now alcohol brings a joyful and light state less and less often, no matter how much you drink. Most often, when such people drink, they become aggressive and irritable.

The third stage of alcoholism is characterized by personality degradation, irreversible changes in the brain, cardiovascular system and liver. Quite often, people, being in the last stage of the disease, attempt suicide.

The effect of daily alcohol consumption on the body

What will happen to a person if he starts drinking alcohol every day?

The destruction inflicted on one’s own body becomes more and more widespread over time. The liver, brain and heart are the first to be affected. Then problems begin with all organs and systems.

Liver

This organ is the first to take the blow, as it acts as a filter that passes and processes all toxic substances that enter the body. Ethanol is metabolized in liver cells, resulting in the formation of even more toxic substance acetaldehyde.

It affects liver cells in the most negative way, which is why many of them die. This process is called necrotic.

The liver tries to compensate for the lack of hepatocyte cells, so connective tissue begins to form. This process is called cirrhotic, and when extensive, it leads to cirrhosis.

Liver necrosis and cirrhosis are a very common cause of death in alcoholics. The liver can repair itself, but if a person drinks every day, he does not give it a chance to start its repair mechanisms.

The cardiovascular system

Leads to vasodilation. After some time, on the contrary, they narrow. Such pressure changes lead to weakening of the vascular walls, and hypertension and atherosclerosis develop.

Ethanol also has a negative effect on the heart muscle itself: muscle tissue wears out, becomes flabby, and is replaced by adipose tissue. How long it takes for irreversible changes to occur depends on how much and how often you drink alcohol. But each time a more and more sensitive blow is dealt to the heart.

Excretory system

Alcohol, like all other products, is processed and excreted from the body by the kidneys. At the same time, they are exposed to the toxic effects of ethanol and its metabolites. If you drink every day, the kidneys work to the limit of their capabilities.

Functioning in this mode leads to rapid wear and tear of organ tissue. The most harmful to the excretory system is the consumption of low-alcohol drinks in large quantities.

Nervous system

Under the influence of ethanol, neurons of the central nervous system die. If a person drinks daily, the loss of neurons leads to irreversible changes in the psyche. The brain centers responsible for various functional capabilities of the body suffer, cognitive functions are disrupted: memory, perception, thinking, behavioral reactions.

Because of negative influence alcohol on the blood vessels disrupts the normal blood supply to the brain. As a result, edema develops and blood vessels may rupture. If one of the large vessels is damaged, a massive hemorrhage in the brain is possible - a hemorrhagic stroke.

Digestive system

The stomach is one of the first on the path of alcohol movement through the body. This is where the absorption of ethanol into the blood begins. This process has a significant negative impact on the condition of the gastric mucosa.

Drinking large doses of alcohol leads to dilation of the vessels of the esophagus and stomach, which, in turn, can cause their ruptures and massive gastric bleeding. This condition poses a direct threat to life. Alcohol also affects the intestines, spleen and pancreas, which also take part in the processing of ethyl alcohol.

Endocrine system

Organs endocrine system suffer from alcohol more often in the female body. Drinking alcohol affects the functioning of the adrenal glands, pituitary gland and thyroid gland, as a result of which less of some types of hormones are synthesized, and more of others.

Hormonal imbalance leads to serious changes in the behavior and appearance of the drinker. In the female body, the production of androgens increases, which leads to ovarian dysfunction, excessive hair growth, and changes in figure.

The male body, due to hormonal imbalance, can, on the contrary, react with hair loss and deposits of fatty tissue in areas characteristic of a female body type. Due to hormonal imbalance, the reproductive system does not function properly.

Vision

As a result of vasodilation under the influence of alcohol, changes in cranial and intraocular pressure occur, which negatively affects the condition of the tissues and blood vessels of the eye and the functioning of the visual analyzer. Under regular exposure to ethanol, the oculomotor muscles atrophy and the conductivity of the optic nerve fibers is disrupted.

Over time, the changes become irreversible; the progression of atrophy of the muscles and tissues of the eye can lead to a significant decrease in visual acuity.

External signs of a drinking person

Regular consumption of alcohol leaves its mark on appearance. If you drink it daily, you can get bags under your eyes due to insufficient kidney function. As a result of ethanol damaging small vessels, the nose becomes red or bluish, the eye sclera is constantly subject to small hemorrhages, which makes them red and inflamed.

Due to failures in hormonal background and when vitamins are washed away with alcohol, hair and nails become brittle. Withdrawal symptoms do not allow a person to get up and put himself in order; he has no desire to pay attention to his appearance. Therefore, an alcoholic can often be recognized by external signs.

How long do alcoholics live?

How long can a person live if he drinks alcohol every day?

According to medical statistics, alcoholics rarely reach the age of 55. People most often die from chronic diseases acquired through alcohol abuse.

In most cases, these are diseases of the heart, blood vessels, and liver. Studies have shown that women become dependent on alcohol faster than men. However, the male body wears out faster due to more consumed alcohol. If a woman, having become an alcoholic, lived for 40-45 years, she looks and feels much more mature.

If a man has been drinking for five to ten years, drinking alcohol every day, he may not look like a depressed alcoholic, but he is more likely to die from cirrhosis of the liver or a heart attack. Of course, it matters how much alcohol you drink, but even a bottle of beer every day will sooner or later lead to irreversible processes in the body.

In addition, alcoholics tend to increase their dose. After some time, the bottle turns into two, three, and so on.

The life expectancy of an alcoholic is determined not only by the number and severity of acquired diseases. While intoxicated, a person finds himself in various life-threatening situations.

He can freeze to death on the street, die in a self-inflicted fire or domestic gas explosion, receive life-threatening injuries and injuries in a drunken fight, or choke on his own vomit.

The life of drinkers does not belong to them, so it is worth considering whether it is possible to drink alcohol every day. Everyone decides for themselves what to do with their life, how much to drink and how often.
