Festive meal: Manage alcohol consumption well ...

0

At Christmas time and drinks too, it's party time! Smell, look, taste… but consume in moderation!

Drinking little: for what reasons?

According to the WHO, consumption of “lower risk” alcohol corresponds to three standard glasses (10 g of alcohol per glass) daily for men, two glasses for women. Make sure you keep at least one alcohol-free day a week. During party times, you can “ride” up to four drinks on one occasion, as long as you don't get behind the wheel.

How to avoid the effects
harmful?

To avoid having a "hangover" even after consuming reasonable amounts, do not drink on an empty stomach. This is where alcohol hurts the most. The stomach being empty, it passes very quickly and entirely in the blood, whereas it is so easy to nibble something an hour before the aperitif to take shelter ...

Remember that a "commercial" dose of alcoholic beverage is always the same amount of alcohol. Whether it is a glass of wine, a flute of champagne or a "Baby" of whiskey.

Are we all equal when it comes to alcohol? 

For the same dose of alcohol, the blood alcohol level differs according to sex. For a glass, count 0,20 g / l for a man and 0,33 g / l per liter for a woman. On average of course: these figures are indeed calculated for an average weight of 75 kg in men and 60 kg in their partner. These rates will however be lower if you drink during a meal. But be careful, whatever the amount consumed, the peak of fasting blood alcohol level is reached in 30 minutes. Against an hour while eating. _AF
