    Alcohol needs to be broken down and detoxified by the liver, and if you drink too much, your liver will be too busy... Just like a computer, if there are more programs, it will be slow, and if there are more programs, the motherboard will burn, and the liver will be the same.

    Effects of alcohol on the human body:

    1: Affect the brain, ethanol entering the human body will enter the brain with the blood because it cannot be digested and absorbed. In the brain, ethanol disrupts neuronal cell membranes and binds indiscriminately to many neuronal receptors.

    Alcohol weakens the central nervous system and causes sluggish brain activity by activating persistent neurogens (gamma aminobutyric acid) and persistent neurogens (glutamate, nicotine). Disorders of gamma aminobutyric acid neurogen and the secretion of opioids (anxiolytic, anti-pain) in the body lead to a sharp secretion of dopamine. Opioids in the body are also involved in the autoregulation of dopamine secretion.

    It can have an effect on memory, decision-making, and bodily reflexes, and can lead to drunkenness, lethargy, and sometimes nausea. Drinking too much alcohol can lead to alcohol-toxic coma.

    2: Tolerance and dependence, over time, the degradation of ethanol by the liver becomes more and more obvious (the duration of drunkenness is shortened). The brain adjusts the number and sensitivity of neurogen receptors in response to this condition to shorten the duration of sedation and enhance the effects of drunkenness.

    The autoregulation of dopamine secretion is disrupted, making rewards and bribes extremely sensitive. The neuronal cell membrane becomes stiff and its permeability is weakened. To return to a drunken state, it is necessary to increase the amount of alcohol consumed (tolerance), but at the same time the effect of alcohol will be stronger (sensitization).

    3: Harmful alcohol can cause excessive calcium content in neurons, stiffen neuronal cell membranes, and disrupt the exchange of substances between nerve cells and the surrounding environment. A large number of nerve cells will die as a result.

    Various cognitive functions are also affected by this (especially memory, analytical ability, and attention). Drinkers experience psychological problems, anxiety, and depression. Exactly the overall toxicity can lead to cardiovascular disease, damage to nerve and muscle fibers, liver disease, cancer of the digestive tract.

    Alcohol can also hinder the normal development of the fetus.

    It is caused by the damage to the germ cells caused by alcohol and the imperfect quality of the fertilized egg. This type of baby is inferior to a normal baby, both physically and intellectually. stunting, underweight; often have facial deformities such as small heads and small eye clefts, and the face is ugly; limb joint abnormalities; Cardiac or other visceral malformations.

    Therefore, pregnant women and their husbands should resolutely refrain from drinking alcohol if they want to have a healthy and intelligent offspring.

    Ethanol (alcohol) is the main component of alcohol, and the ethanol that enters the human body cannot be digested and absorbed, so it enters the brain with the bloodstream. In the brain, ethanol destroys neuronal cell membranes and binds indiscriminately to many neurogen receptors, and alcohol weakens the central nervous system.
