62-year-old Lao Deng went to the hospital for examination because of dizziness with numbness and weakness of the left limb, and was diagnosed with cerebral infarction, the doctor said that the reasons for Lao Deng's stroke are many, firstly, he has high blood pressure and diabetes, but these two chronic diseases have not been well controlled, and secondly, Lao Deng has a long-term habit of drinking, in his words, since the age of 30, he has to drink about three taels of liquor every night.
The doctor told Lao Deng that now that you have a cerebral infarction, you must not only control your high blood pressure and diabetes, but also completely quit drinking, otherwise the next cerebral infarction may come back.
Lao Deng was very helpless, he said to the doctor, it is difficult to quit drinking, he has been drinking for 30 years, only by drinking a little wine every day, can he eat more things, sleep better, if he quit drinking, it is estimated that he will not be able to sleep after eating.
Also, Lao Deng feels that he is 62 years old, has high blood pressure and diabetes, and now has a stroke.
In fact, many people have the idea of Lao Deng, they feel that when they are older, they will never know which one will come first tomorrow or accidents, so they simply live one day at a time, and live one day at a time.
But this is not the case, drinking alcohol is a very bad habit for the elderly, drinking alcohol will induce a variety of diseases, thereby affecting the life expectancy of the elderly, even if some diseases can be stabilized by treatment, but the decline in the quality of life caused by drinking is difficult to reverse.
What is the ultimate lifespan of each old man, no one can accurately predict, but longevity is not simply measured by age, but also includes the quality of life, like Lao Deng, drinking alcohol caused a stroke, after treatment he even left the left limb mobility disorder, which has a great impact on his future life, think about it, if you don't quit drinking, in the next time, he will live more painfully.
The doctor reminds that after the age of 60, even if you can't do without alcohol, you must keep in mind that you must not drink alcohol for 5.
First, don't drink alcohol on an empty stomach
If the first thing you do in the morning is to drink on an empty stomach, then it must be said that your addiction to alcohol is too great, and drinking alcohol in this way is very harmful to your health.
When you are fasting, the concentration of gastric acid is high, and at this time, drinking alcohol directly will further promote the secretion of gastric acid, and there is no food to neutralize gastric acid.
Drinking alcohol on an empty stomach, without any food involved, means that alcohol will be absorbed more and faster, so that drinking, not only is it easier to get drunk, but also alcohol is more harmful to health in the process of body metabolism.
Second, don't drink medicinal wine
Many elderly people think that medicinal wine can dispel rheumatism, because it contains traditional Chinese medicine, so it is beneficial to health.
Medicinal wine, no matter what medicine you add, the main ingredient is still wine, drinking in this way, is very harmful to health, the intermediate metabolite of alcohol acetaldehyde will induce DNA mutations, easy to lead to cancer, long-term drinking will also affect blood pressure fluctuations, resulting in higher blood pressure, coronary heart disease and cerebral infarction.
Many old people think that drinking medicinal wine can be beneficial to vascular health, this understanding is completely wrong, and there are many people who make medicinal wine, completely according to their own ideas, some traditional Chinese medicine can not be used to make wine at all, or the wrong amount when soaking wine, these are easy to lead to danger, because it is a drug with three poisons, some Chinese medicine if used excessively or incompatible, it is easy to lead to liver and kidney function damage, and even failure.
Third, don't drink mixed wine
For the elderly, drinking mixed wine is very harmful, many elderly people drink liquor and feel not addicted, and go to drink red wine or beer, I don't know if you find it, drinking mixed wine is actually particularly easy to get drunk, drinking mixed wine will lead to the mixing of substances in various wines, such as vitamins, antioxidants and other substances in beer mixed with liquor, may promote ethanol absorption, resulting in excessive absorption of alcohol.
Fourth, don't drink alcohol before bed
Many people have the habit of drinking alcohol before going to bed, thinking that drinking some wine to anesthetize the nerves, can sleep more soundly, in fact, drinking alcohol before going to bed is very harmful to health, immediately after drinking to sleep, once the vomiting reaction occurs, it is often fatal, because there is often no consciousness in sleep.
Doing this for a long time leads to a dependence on alcohol when you sleep, and you will find that you have to drink more to sleep well, and if you drink less or no alcohol, you can't sleep at all.
Fifth, don't drink bulk alcohol
Many people are greedy for cheap, so they go from a small workshop to buy some bulk wine to drink, although bulk wine is cheap, but you have to keep in mind that the sky will not fall pie, bulk wine often can not guarantee the quality, such as hygiene and food safety of raw materials is even worse, many small workshops produce bulk wine, often alcohol content, fusel in the wine, methanol and other values are exceeded, often drink this kind of wine is easy to cause physical discomfort.
