Cheers to the Universiade! Drinking alcohol while watching the game may cause premature aging of the skin

Are you ready for the Taiwan Universiade on August 19? Has the climax of the fierce battle been scheduled? Whether it is the fortunate people who can buy the coveted live audience seats, or those who stay in front of the TV at home after a busy day to see the moon through the clouds and the dawn, it is all just to be able to see a glimmer of light before the dawn of Taiwan's sports with their own eyes.

Therefore, queuing up to enter the competition venue during the day is a small matter, but you still have to stare at the TV to watch the replay at night. In order to liven up the fun, friends and family will inevitably drink to cheer you up, accompanied by self-sacrificing cheering. With the ups and downs of the competition, the 12-day day and night battle makes it possible to truly feel the soul goal of "I think, therefore I am" after get off work and get out of class.

And after 12 days, with the outpouring of the Holy Spirit accompanied by alcoholic beverages and the religious worship-style pursuit of the race, in the dead of night or after waking up from a deep dream, when you turn on the bright lights in your home, will you re-examine your chaotic holiday in the Universiade? Especially for those who drink alcohol, after careful observation, they find that their skin seems to have become drier, less elastic, and even seems to have the early symptoms of aging ? Believe me, this is not your illusion, this is real, and it is the "alcohol" that makes you drink so much that is causing the problem.

The legendary love-hate relationship between alcohol and bladder

In ancient times, alcohol was a useful substance used by many talented people to express their feelings or get drunk. However, in the modern 21st century, alcohol has many important physiological effects on the human body. First of all, alcohol is actually a diuretic that can inhibit the secretion of an important water-retaining hormone in the kidneys - "antidiuretic hormone". As the name suggests, two negatives equal a positive, "inhibiting antidiuresis" = "inducing diuresis".

Therefore, if you drink a lot of beer while watching the game, I believe you will run to the toilet frequently due to the diuretic effect, and finally miss many great shots that only come once in a lifetime; in addition, when you wake up the next day, in addition to the hangover and headache, you will find that your skin has become dry and rough, and the watery skin that you have worked hard to maintain for a long time will be lost; so when watching the game, in addition to drinking delicious drinks, remember to replenish water in moderation, so that after the Universiade, the handsome guys will not be able to become Oppa, but become dry and skinny.

No alcohol makes people depressed, alcohol makes people fat

Next, no matter how delicious the wine is, the calories in it are equivalent to those of fat. Every gram of alcohol has 7 calories. In addition, the human body's metabolic pathway for alcohol is similar to that of fat, so the parts of the body where it is stored are also equivalent to fat. If we omit the boring chatter in the previous part, the conclusion is that after drinking heavily for half a month, the alcohol metabolized into fat will stick to the parts of the body that should be accumulated at the beginning of aging, like an invisible little sweetheart and the visible belly fat. The whole world is united and spreads everywhere, infinitely devouring the mermaid vest that once was, leaving only the fat and swollen body of the beginning of aging that is no longer as brave as before.

Alcohol, the culprit of early aging and spots on the skin

To enjoy the exciting events in the sunny summer, taking a sip of cool and slightly pungent sparkling beer seems to be a very good choice. Feeling the bubbles dancing on the tip of your tongue is as refreshing and soothing as seeing the float girls on a hot summer night.

However, don't build your good mood on the silent pain of your delicate skin. Studies have shown that people who drink alcohol and are exposed to the sun are more likely to develop spots and sunburn than those who do not drink. However, the exact cause of this mechanism has not yet been found, and the current human mechanism is still unclear. It is speculated that the possible reason is that after alcohol intake, the human body causes more oxidative metabolic stress, which in turn affects the skin's ability to repair itself. This causes people who drink alcohol to be more susceptible to sunburn and freckles when exposed to the sun.

Although it is said that "Enjoy the game to the fullest and don't let the golden cup face the moon in vain", and "Enjoy the joy while drunk, there is no time for worry", it is a pity that the ancients did not finish their words. Although drinking does make you happy and refreshed at the moment, the cost of being drunk should not be underestimated, such as dry skin, fat, aging, ugliness, and sun spots ! So, if you are ready to watch the game, in addition to enjoying the thrill of adrenaline secretion brought by the game, you should also retain some brain power for rational thinking. Remember to "put down the bottle and get healthy"!
