Tomorrow is "Taiwan's No Wine Day", and it is healthiest not to drink. Doctors warn that being careful of alcoholism and excessive drinking will cause acute pancreatitis and leading to diabetes, gastric aches, hepatitis or insomnia.

Drinking makes you feel hot. Mr. Xu, who is often hilarious in his abdomen, is introverted, easy to be nervous, and is not good at speaking. At university, he found that drinking can help socialize, and drinking can relax emotions. When interacting with people, he will not create a sense of distance. From then on, he began to contact various types of alcohol. After graduating from school, he not only has a good alcohol tolerance but also knows how to taste wine. He has a lot of feedback, but in the past year, his abdomen has often suffered from implicit pain, which makes him easily tired and unable to eat.

Recently, Mr. Xu had acute abdominal pain and was diagnosed with diabetes. Due to work needs, he still returned to his life after being discharged from the hospital. It was not until the pancreas repeatedly became inflamed that he decided to quit drinking. He is currently in the process of continuous treatment of quitting alcohol.

Be careful that acute pancreatitis, diabetes, hepatitis, upper body

Alcohol can cause systemic damage to the human body. Foreign studies have shown that the chance of alcohol-related patients with hepatitis is as high as 30 to 50%, while chronic alcohol use is related to nearly one-quarter of acute pancreatitis. Chen Wenjian, a physician at the Physical and Physical Medicine Department of Ciqi Hospital in Taipei, pointed out that many alcoholic cases are caused by repeated pancreatic inflammation, which leads to diabetes, chronic abdominal pain, and nutritional indigestion. Long-term use of alcohol can also cause gastric aches, bleeding, hepatitis, instability or insomnia. Six of Taiwan's top ten cancers are related to alcohol, especially cancers in the upper gastrointestinal tract.

Chen Yiqian, director of the Department of Physical and Physical Medicine at Taipei Ciqi Hospital, mentioned that the harm of alcohol is immediate. In addition to physical illness, it can also cause violent behavior, which leads to social risks such as domestic violence and alcohol. It is generally believed that 60% of domestic violence are related to drinking, so the harm caused by drinking should not be ignored.

Many people have a drink to help sleep due to insomnia, but they often feel that they drink more and more. Chen Wenjian said that alcohol is potent. As long as it is through alcohol, it is easy to develop tolerance due to the desire to relax, sleep aid, or stress. The more you drink or through higher concentrations of alcohol, you can achieve the same effect. Most alcoholics are invisibly stolen by alcohol during the process of alcohol training. Once they do not drink, they will experience symptoms such as hand shaking, palpitations, nausea, anxiety and difficulty falling asleep. Therefore, as long as it affects life or function, they should be quit during medical treatment.

The World Health Organization believes that alcohol causes far more poison than other drugs, and the average life of alcoholics is 25 to 30 years less than that of ordinary people, which can be said to be very serious. Chen Yiqian emphasized that there is no safe amount of drinks. Even if you want to drink, people with drinking habits should not exceed the amount of drinks (about 500ML beer) in two units a week. Only by leaving alcohol can you face a healthy life.
