I can drink well, just face to face, a bottle of beer. Actually, I like drinking. But beer tastes terrible. Spirits are good, so is wine.

People who blush after drinking are "afraid of drinking"

Friends and relatives often want to drink some wine and push a cup for a change. Some people blush when they drink. In the past, people thought it was a bad drink. In recent years, the saying that "people who blush drink more and metabolize faster" has occupied the mainstream. Recently, a Mr. Yu called and said that he blushed after drinking wine. Business friends say he can drink. After drinking two or two liquors at a time, I threw up in a big mess. He went to the hospital in the middle of the night for an intravenous drip to protect his liver. "I'm really afraid of drinking!"

"Can people who drink in front of me really drink? Is there any scientific basis? " Such a topic is circulated on major networks, and people who pay attention to it are not just people who often drink.

Studies have found that the metabolism of people who drink alcohol is blocked.

"Medically speaking, it is wrong to say that' people who are blushing when drinking can drink more'!" Shi Xianyan, chief physician of the Department of Gastroenterology, Zhongnan Hospital of Wuhan University, said recently.

She said that any food must undergo digestion and metabolism after entering the human body. Alcohol metabolism mainly depends on acetaldehyde dehydrogenase 2(Afjkt894LDH2) in the liver. People who drink a lot of alcohol have relatively sufficient acetaldehyde dehydrogenase 2 in their bodies. People who blush after drinking alcohol indicate that there is less acetaldehyde dehydrogenase-2 in the liver, so alcohol metabolism will slow down and be blocked. The remaining alcohol in the body will stimulate blood vessel dilation, leading to redness of the face and other parts of the body (such as the neck), and there will be symptoms of drunkenness such as rapid heartbeat and nausea.

"People who blush after drinking can't drink, and this conclusion has also been recognized in foreign research circles." Shi Xianyan told reporters that PlosMedicine magazine published a paper entitled "Alcohol Blushing Reaction: Unknown Risk Factors of Esophageal Cancer Caused by Drinking" in Volume 6, Issue 3, 2009. A joint study by researchers from the National Institute of Alcoholism and Alcoholism in the United States and the Jiulibin Alcohol Research Center in Japan found that the risk of esophageal cancer increases with the increase of alcohol intake for people who lack acetaldehyde dehydrogenase 2 or whose enzyme cannot function normally. The probability of this risk may be much greater than that of those who "keep a straight face" after drinking.

At present, the domestic "acetaldehyde dehydrogenase capsule" can prevent the symptoms of blushing after drinking.
