According to a study via Discover , alcohol is the third-leading cause of death in the United States. The World Health Organization WHO also states that "alcohol use is a risk factor for many cancer types including cancer of the oral cavity, pharynx, larynx, oesophagus, liver, colorectum and breast. However, she noted that breast cancer is the anomaly.
The expert continued, saying, "At moderate levels of alcohol intake for example 10 [drinks] a week the risk of breast cancer goes up more than it does for other alcohol-related cancers.
That said, Hydes said consuming one to two cans of beer a few times each week is "probably not harmful. Although Mildred Bowers, who made headlines for turning in , recommends beer for others who want to live into their s, she said her longevity is really "all in the genes. As it turns out, though, a study later confirmed that both light and moderate drinking does indeed decrease the risk of mortality in both sexes — but especially so in women, as reported by The Telegraph.
In fact, moderate drinking attributed to a 25 percent decrease in "all-cause mortality" and a 34 percent decreased risk of cardiovascular disease-related mortality in women. Giovanni de Gaetano, director of the department of epidemiology and prevention at IRCCS Istituto Neurologico Mediterraneo Neuromed, added, "For most older persons, the overall benefits of light drinking, especially the reduced cardiovascular disease risk, clearly outweigh possible cancer risk.
Not every medical expert believes drinking beer can lead to a long life. After reviewing large quantities of data, physician scientist Sarah M. Hartz revealed that "even the lightest daily drinkers have an increased mortality risk. Relatively few people die in their 20s, so a 20 percent increase in mortality is small but still significant. But what about the benefits to heart health? Hartz acknowledged that those benefits are real. So, should you or should you not be drinking a nightly beer?
Unfortunately, the science very much depends on you. Having a beer every night doesn't mean you're addicted to alcohol.
But it can mean you've developed a dependence. Koob further revealed to the publication that you could also become dependent on something an innocuous as eating dinner at the same time every night. Nevertheless, it is wise to pay attention to your consumption habits. Drinking alcohol in excess can lead to devastating effects on the brain , including brain shrinkage and damage. However, low to moderate alcohol consumption can actually benefit the brain.
However, you should take this with a grain of salt because, according to the publication, "it is difficult to know whether the beneficial effects are due to alcohol or other factors, such as lifestyle, education, or diet.
Although many medical professionals and experts — including George Koob, director of the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism via Men's Health — don't recommend you start drinking if you don't currently drink and not drink more if you only drink a little , consuming alcohol in low and moderate levels is thought to be safe for the brain. So, having a beer now and then is usually considered fine.
Concerned about your drinking habits? Here are signs you drink too much. According to a study conducted by researchers from the department of nutritional physiology at TNO Nutrition and Food Research institute as well as the Institute for Research in Extramural Medicine, department of public and occupation health, and department of endocrinology at VU University Medical Center in the Netherlands, moderately consuming alcohol can lower your risk of developing type 2 diabetes by as much as 30 percent.
However, if you currently have type 2 diabetes, you'll want to exercise more than the usual amount of caution when drinking — especially when it comes to what you're drinking. Drinking 50 beers daily as the only dietary intake for more than a month — what could go wrong?
Bizarre medical cases never fail to interest thousands on the internet, and this one where a year-old man whose substance abuse problems went as far as drinking 50 beers a day certainly lives up to its promise.
The video by the popular YouTube channel Chubbyemu follows the story of an alcoholic who was presented to the emergency room with status epilepticus, a minute seizure. The medical staff was familiar with the man's alcoholism since he came to the emergency room before; however, this time, it was apparent that something was wrong.
The man had started drinking every day 12 years ago and was admitted into the hospital 25 times for alcohol-related problems. He drank 50 beers daily, and this was his only dietary intake for more than a month. It is possible for an alcoholic to drink 30 beers in a day. Constant pain where your liver would be unless you drank enough to numb it.
To be able to drink beers in a day 24 hrs , you would need to gulp down at least 1. Not to say that it is impossible, but it is highly unlikely a person would be up to doing that consciously unless they are trying to prove a point IMHO. Beer can get us high drunk only if we have more than mugs or bottles.
