alcohol

[Guest guest]

Ross,

 

So please tell me why I am wrong about alcohol consumption, and about your

life experience with alcohol. The information that I will share with you is not

from experience, but from scientific fact I don't need to take a poison into my

body to know that it is not good for me. Would I be correct in assuming that you

personally drink, but feel that you have not experienced any decline in your

facilties? Possibly what you feel is moderation? Really not important because if

you ingest alcohol in any form you are shortening your life span and opening

yourself up to a weakened immune system and a compromised live.

 

Did you know that alcohol consumption is responsible for more false positive

HIV tests than anything else? Did you know that in scientific study that just

three beers over a ten day period dramatically speeds up the rate that HIV and

othere viruses multiply in the blood stream. That alcohol is poisonous to the

liver. IT causes you to be dehydrated and here is why..... When there is alcohol

in the body, the liver is forced to metabolize ti first, therefore it overwords

the liver and kidneys and draws water from the system THat alcohol in males

increases the estrogen levels in the body, nad in larger doses blocks the nerves

necessary for erection. Alcohol molecules are so fine that they pass through the

lining of the stomach and can be absored directly into the blood.That the first

part of the brain to be affected by alcohol are the frontal lobes of the brain

which control judgement. That women lack a digestive enzyme in the stomach that

aids in the metabolism of alcohol?

 

I could go on and on, now let me hear from you why I am wrong? MARK

Mark, i don't know what your life experience is

but much of what you stated here about alcohol is

untrue. i don't question that for some people the

use of any alcohol products can be a serious

problem that will lead to trajic life.....and death.

as with most things moderation and balance are

the secret to success....albeit some people can

not have any amount. be well, Ross

Re: [s-A] red wine-an alternative perspective

 

Alcohol in any form is not good for the body.

The following is an alternative perspective on wine.

 

I recently had a conversation with a student of

natural health who believed that a little red wine is

good for you and thins the blood. In fact, I believe

her cultural love for wine may have been influencing

her values in this regard. I think many wish that wine

would be a health food since they drink so much of it.
