Why do some boys blush when they drink?

Drinking blush is caused by temporary vasodilation under the skin, and these people have a highly effective alcohol dehydrogenase enzyme that can quickly convert alcohol in the blood into acetaldehyde, which has the function of dilating capillaries, which can cause redness. Some people are born with few enzymes in their body, and alcohol causes blood vessels to dilate after drinking, causing blushing. Some people who are born with a lot of enzymes in their bodies and don't drink alcohol often, even if they drink two more glasses, they can quickly metabolize the alcohol, and they will not appear to be flushed.

People with low enzymes can increase the enzymes in their body by drinking alcohol for a long time, and they will not blush anymore when they drink alcohol. In addition to ethanol dehydrogenase, there is also a substance called acetaldehyde dehydrogenase in the human body, and people who drink alcohol and blush only have the former enzyme and no latter enzyme, resulting in the rapid accumulation of acetaldehyde in the body and the delay in metabolism, so the time of blushing will be longer. Compared with people who "do not change their face" after drinking, acetaldehyde stays in this human body for a longer time and has a greater toxic effect.

However, generally speaking, after 1-2 hours, the red color will gradually fade, because the cytochrome P450 in the liver will slowly convert acetaldehyde into acetic acid, which will be metabolized after entering the circulatory system. What should I do if I get red when I drink alcohol? TCM practitioners recommend drinking sweets or protein foods to detoxify hangover, which can increase blood sugar concentration and alleviate the damage caused by alcohol.

In addition, researchers from the National Headache Research Association** have pointed out that honey contains a special fructose, which can promote the breakdown and absorption of alcohol and reduce headache symptoms. Drinking fruit juice or sugar water in time after drinking alcohol can also play a protective role in the liver. A new report from the World Health Organization reports that people who drink alcohol and tend to turn red may have a much greater chance of developing esophageal cancer if they drink regularly.

When WHO identified the link between alcohol consumption and cancer 20 years ago, it only explicitly stated that esophageal and liver cancers can be caused by alcohol, while a recently reassessed report states that there is also a "causal relationship" between breast and colorectal cancer and alcohol.

Hello is happy to answer for you, first of all, the effect of alcohol can relax the blood vessels, and the blood is easy to flow quickly, which will make the blood vessels in the face dilate, so the blood vessels in the face will become very red, which will make the face red.

Secondly, alcohol is metabolized in the human body to produce acetaldehyde, which causes blood vessels to become loose and dilates blood vessels in the face, resulting in blushing.

Finally, because alcohol can cause a rise in body temperature, it is easy to make people hot, which will also make the blood vessels in the face more ruddy, so that boys will blush when they drink.

Generally, when a boy faces the girl he likes, he will be more shy, he wants to look at you, but he is embarrassed, he is more afraid that he will blush when he looks at you talking, which will embarrass him.

2. If this guy is doing this to you, then congratulations, he likes you.

3. But he doesn't care about other girls, maybe he is not a shy person, but in front of the girl he likes, he will be like a timid little white rabbit.

4. You can experiment with it, keep staring at him, watch his reaction, and try to stare at him to talk, and soon you will see a big tomato.

5. You can experiment with it, keep staring at him, see his reaction, and try to stare at him to talk, and soon you will see a big tomato.

6. This guy likes this girl. Men will blush at the girls they like, dare not look at each other, and even stutter or not be as fluent as usual.

7, he must like it, think about it, when he talks to other girls, he can look at other people's eyes to show that he treats other people as friends, and what about this woman? I don't dare to look at it, which means that I have a special feeling for her, I just like it! How long can I get off this for a long time???

8. In fact, all boys generally don't dare to look at girls, especially when girls stare at them, boys will be shy.

9. I don't like it at all, so I don't want to see it; I really like it, so I don't dare to look at it; He's lying, that's why he doesn't look; Men like women, hehe, and I'm the same type! is just waiting for the woman to chase, and he doesn't take the initiative very much!

Flushing after drinking is a common phenomenon in many men who drink alcohol. Some friends say that men who drink alcohol and blush are filial, and some people say that men who drink alcohol and blush will get esophageal cancer. So what is the real reason why men blush after drinking?

Let's take a look at the deep reasons why men and Bian Xiao blush after drinking!

How to tell if it is a "red-faced Guan Gong"?

Although drinking alcohol and blushing is a genetic problem, it is actually very simple to determine whether a person carries the defective gene. There is no need to draw blood or measure the DNA sequence to judge the state, and the two questions can be roughly judged:

Question 1: Do you have a tendency to blush immediately after drinking a glass of beer (about 180ml)?

Question 2: Is there a tendency to blush when drinking a glass of beer (about 180ml) within 1 to 2 years after starting drinking?

If either of these two questions is "yes", it can be considered a carrier of the defective gene. It is important to note that question 2 is very important for some people who tolerate drinking reactions. In addition, "a glass of beer" can also be replaced with other alcoholic beverages with the same alcohol content, such as two-thirds of a glass of red pie or a small glass of white wine.

About "red-faced Guan Gong is prone to esophageal cancer".

Recently, there has been a widespread statement on Weibo that "people who blush after drinking are prone to esophageal cancer". After all, many Chinese blush soon after drinking! Does this mean that all of these people have a high risk factor for esophageal cancer? Not all!

In 2009, Brook et al.'s study compared the risk of esophageal cancer in two groups of people who blushed and did not blush after drinking. They found that people who blushed after drinking alcohol were more likely to get esophageal cancer than people who didn't blush after drinking, as long as they had a drinking habit. However, further analysis showed that people who blushed after drinking alcohol usually drank less alcohol had a lower risk of cancer (but still had a higher risk than people who did not blush after drinking).

If you not only blush after drinking, but also drink a lot of alcohol and drink too much, the risk of esophageal cancer will rise dramatically.

In meta-studies published in 2010 and 2011, Chinese scholars further analyzed the association between different genotypes of drinking habits and the incidence of esophageal cancer. It was found that without normal acetaldehyde dehydrogenase 2-deficient homozygotes, there was no increased risk of esophageal cancer. Conversely, defective heterozygotes for certain enzymes are at high risk of esophageal cancer.

The results of this study seem incredible. Why are people with normal enzymes more dangerous? A more detailed analysis can help us unravel the mystery.

Some people think that such people are more capable of drinking

It is said that such people are not prone to liver damage.
