This type of pathology leads to a weakening of the general state and thus the triggering of various diseases, including infections and cancers.
Like refined sugar, we have seen that alcohol also behaves as an anti-food with a series of typical disorders: anorexia, malabsorption of amino acids, minerals, vitamins and particularly vitamin B (cf. diabetes). Alcohol contains many calories but few useful nutrients.
These consequences are marked at the level of the digestive sphere: esophagitis, ulcers, cirrhosis of the liver, cancers... One can speak about excessive drinker:
- For the man, when his alcohol consumption reaches more than 40 g per day, that is to say 1/2 liter of wine at 10 %, the risk of death is reduced.
- For women, the threshold is 20 g per day
- 10 g of pure alcohol is equivalent to 1 glass of 12.5 cl of wine at 10%.
Alcohol suppresses your appetite, and by eating less, you may be getting too few vital nutrients. The more you drink, the more important it is that you choose your food wisely. Alcohol reduces the absorption and metabolic action of many nutrients. Among this population, deficiencies in vitamins A, D and B, folic acid, calcium, phosphorus, zinc, proteins, certain amino acids, fatty acids (including linoleic acid, an essential fatty acid) and glucose are common. Alcohol causes a tendency to remove magnesium from the body in the urine.
- Foods rich in thiamine can help you go without alcohol.
- I remind you that water is the only essential drink and that the quantity to be consumed is 1.5 liters per day, to be drunk mainly between meals.
- A glass of wine during or at the end of a meal is not considered harmful.
- It is important to keep alcohol and wine as tasting drinks and not as machine drinks.
