More than that, from a step closer with diabetes

Excessive drinking is a comprehensive injury to human beings

Alcohol affects people's health, this effect is like a double-edged sword. In particular, excessive alcohol consumption on injury is the number of systems, multiple organ, resulting in alcoholic liver disease, characterized by the liver injury, fatty liver, cirrhosis, liver cancer, bleeding, etc; cause indigestion, gastritis, stomach bleeding, alcoholic pancreatitis, pancreatic necrosis, etc. Alcohol can damage the nervous system, on the peripheral nervous system damage, causing Vassel neuritis, performance for limb numbness, weakness; walk on central nervous system is the main cause of brain damage, alcoholic encephalopathy, characterized by memory loss and dementia.

Excessive alcohol consumption is on the islet of heavy losses

Alcohol increases the risk of diabetes, mainly in three respects.

1. the impact of sugar metabolism

The liver is an important body of digestive organs, in maintaining normal glucose concentration on plays an important role. When from intestinal absorption into the blood glucose concentration, liver glycogen synthesis it stored; when blood glucose falls, glycogen decomposition produces glucose release into the blood to keep blood sugar levels stable. There are experimental studies have shown that alcohol (ethanol) and its metabolites of acetaldehyde affect glucose metabolism in the liver, excessive alcohol consumption can cause sugar metabolism disorder, throw diabetes.

2. pancreatic injury

Excessive alcohol consumption can cause oxidative damage, make islet islet cell apoptosis, causing damage to the pancreas function. If the secretion of pancreatic islet the absolute or relative lack of insulin, could lead to elevated blood glucose concentration, and a lot of sugar from the urine excretion, and appears more yin, polyuria, more food, weight loss, dizziness, weakness, and other symptoms of diabetes. If you continue to drink a lot, will enable further development of the illness, serious complications, threats to health.

3. the impact of the role of insulin signaling pathway

Insulin to play a role, you must also depends on the specific signaling pathways, insulin signaling to the cells, which play an insulin on nutrition and metabolic regulation. Excessive alcohol consumption can affect the access of multiple links, play a normal function of the effect of insulin.

You are not drinking after islet easily wounded

Because each person's genetic background and the physiological state, some alcohol after islet more vulnerable to injury. The study found that the following 7 situation of high risk population belonging to diabetes:

1. age of more than 45 years of age, especially overweight or obese (body mass index greater than 24);

2. is there a family history of diabetes;

3. abnormal blood lipids (high density lipoprotein cholesterol ≤ 0.91-Mo/liter, triglyceride ≥ 2.75-Mo/l);

4. blood pressure (adult blood pressure ≥ 140/90 mmHg);

5. a history of gestational diabetes, has given birth fetal macrosomia (infant birth weight more than 4 kg);

6. perennial does not take part in physical activities;

7. the use of special drugs, such as corticosteroids, diuretics, and so on.

Whether the development of diabetes mellitus among high-risk populations into diabetic, the key lies in the presence of induced diabetes fuse. For example, lifestyle such as a lack of exercise, bad eating habits, such as high fat diet, excessive alcohol intake. In particular, to emphasize that the islet easily wounded, should control the amount of drinking, avoid excessive alcohol intake on the islet of injury, caused by diabetes.

A drinking security baseline

The relationship between alcohol consumption and health preserving very early on. Moderate drinking a euphoria, relaxed mood, increase of appetite, fatigue, promote sleep, better health, less liquors contain nutrients, can complement the needs of the human body. More and more evidence also shows that moderate drinking reduces the incidence of diabetes. Prolonged moderate intake of alcohol is no harmful effect on metabolism, but will increase insulin sensitivity.

Then, in the face of many kinds of wine, in everyday life how to choose? how to grasp the scale of moderate drinking?

Generally speaking, wine with white wine, beer and wine. From a health perspective, when one of the wine red wine for you. Red wine has a plant pigment composition, antioxidant and the role of platelet aggregation, protect blood vessels maintain elasticity, so that the heart is not smooth ischemia, often drink red wine reduces the risk of heart disease.

Ingestion of alcohol (ethanol) in addition to a very small amount of urine excretion through respiration and, more than 95% of in vivo metabolism, liver decomposition is ethanol metabolism in vital organs. Liver alcohol every day on the metabolic capacity of about 1 g per kg of body weight. A 60 kg weight, daily intake of alcohol allowed should be limited to 60 grams. Less than 60 kg weight, to a corresponding reduction in the alcohol intake, it is best to control in 45 grams.

Alcohol intake calculation formula

Intake of alcohol content (g) = volume (ML) drinking × alcohol concentration (%) × 0.8

It should be said that every healthy adults with moderate alcohol digestion of decomposition. However, each person's ability to be different for wine, such as congenital genetic constitution, is frequently drink alcohol, drink, and ages of health and mental situation will affect the solution of the wine. Especially everyone in vivo decomposition alcohol alcohol Dehydrogenase activity, sensitivity to alcohol (i.e. drink size) mainly by genetic factors. The most important thing is to know your own drinks alcohol metabolism capabilities to determine daily potable alcohol instead of blindly following the so-called standard.

For the sake of your health, drink to again urge restraint, do not drink excessively, to minimize the harm of alcohol on the body to protect the islet, reduce the risk of onset of diabetes. Because pancreatic insulin secretion in the body is the only organ, islet cells are nonrenewable,

Once the damage is not recoverable, and this is the diabetes cannot be cured. More than that, it will leave a step closer with diabetes!
