Drinking Causes Damage

February 10, 2009


Ever wondered that your joy of drinking alcohol may lead to sorrow for your health? Well, that is what global studies are showing.  One may call 5 ounce of glass of wine as a standard normal drink. 12 ounce of beer is equivalent to 1.5 ounce of distilled spirits and they both are taken as normal as well.

Anything more than this would obviously lead to problems. To start with, your liver is in severe trouble. Alcohol cirrhosis affects nearly 20 percent of all heavy alcohol drinkers. It causes complete liver damage.

Quitting alcohol may improve rate of survival and liver transplantation is the last options for such patients. For record, liver transplants are not easy. Here are many more complications during cirrhosis. Next fatal condition is inflammation of pancreas which is better known as Pancreatitis.

With pancreas disturbed for playing their role of producing insulin and maintaining blood sugar levels, there are chronic chances of development of severe abdominal pain and excessive weight loss.
Cancer is one disease which one  just cannot escape with heavy drinking.

There are so many forms of cancer that may develop, like caner of mouth, cancer of esophagus, cancer of voice box, etc.

Cancer of rectum and cocoon may also develop in heavy drinkers. Drinking also leads to increased risk for development of cardiovascular diseases.

With ageing, tendency for getting blood pressure problems become common. Heavy drinking may also lead to increased risk for heart stroke and other forms of heart diseases.

Apart from your physical health, heavy drinking also affects your mental health.  Men become more irritated and short tempered after drinking. Depression and anxiety have also been observed. Lack of patience often leads to violent behavior which shakes the very foundation of relationships both at work and at home. Disturbed, your efficiency decreases considerably in day to day life.
