The effect of beer on the human body

Beer is a very popular alcoholic beverage among all ages. But few people pay attention to the fact that this natural drink consists of a large number of compounds, such as water (91-93%), carbohydrates (1.5-4.5%), ethyl alcohol (3-7%) and nitrogen-containing substances (0.2-0.65%). And many others that are not so significant.

The most interesting thing is that you can't drink enough beer to die if you only drink it. Although in the twenty-first century such types of beer began to appear, in which the alcoholic content reaches 12% and higher. Serious health problems can arise with constant consumption of such beer.

The worst thing about beer is that beer alcoholism appears completely imperceptibly, in comparison, for example, with vodka. Beer alcoholism is most strongly developed in Germany, the homeland of intoxicating drinks. Even German officials, who admitted their weakness, said that they became stupid, lazy and powerless (and powerlessness is not only in the muscles). Non-alcoholic beer can also be very deceiving, since it also has a percentage of alcohol. Therefore, when a person tries to cope with alcoholism with such non-alcoholic beer, then in 9 cases out of 10 he breaks down even more. And it is necessary to treat beer alcoholism, as well as usual.

The mistake of most people is that the appearance of a "beer belly" from beer is considered. This is a deeply mistaken opinion. Beer, like any other alcoholic beverage, contains substances that affect hunger centers, and therefore one is hungry. The belly appears from simple eating. The fascinating fact is that beer itself has fewer calories than milk or grape juice.

The numbers of beer consumption are frightening: in Ukraine and Russia 65 liters of beer are drunk per person per year. And this figure is growing every day.

Fans of beer drinks, including those in our countries, prove that beer has a beneficial effect on the body in small doses. As if helping to reduce cardiovascular disease. But most studies prove this to be a misconception. For example, back in 1999, it was shown that people who drank small amounts of alcohol did not show any change in mortality tendencies when compared to non-drinkers. But for those people who drank about 7 liters of beer a week, the chance of dying from a stroke was twice that of non-drinkers.

It must also be remembered that any alcohol can bring to fainting. In addition, alcohol can cause weakness in the body, you may start to feel dizzy, but this will not happen due to intoxication, but due to the expansion of blood vessels. Also, when drinking beer, it becomes possible to get varicose veins and heart enlargement - the so-called "beer heart" - which leads to flabbiness of the heart muscle and inhibition of the functions of the living motor of the heart. Nowadays, to save money, cobalt compounds are added to beer for greater foaming. Such compounds add to the risk of heart failure.

Few people know that when drinking beer, hops, which contain soft and hard tar, increase the risk of colon cancer. Although even in the good old books, hops are considered beneficial for the body.

Also, not the most pleasant facts about beer speak of sexual changes in the body. With the constant use of beer in men, the secretion of testosterone is suppressed and female hormones are produced instead of the male hormone. As a consequence, men develop breasts and expand their pelvis. And in women, with frequent use, there is a high probability of developing cancer. At the same time, in women, like in men, hormones are replaced: subsequently a mustache grows and a voice coarsens. Breastfeeding mothers are not allowed to drink beer, as the baby may have epileptic seizures.

We must realize that the impact of beer on human health is enormous. Because of such a simple drink, brain cells die and many functions of the body are disrupted, there is cirrhosis of the liver, gastritis and many other, sometimes incurable diseases.

Therefore, it is strongly advised not to drink beer at all or to drink in the most minimal quantities.
