5ENERALI?ATION

Alcohol "rinking is one of the most common past)times of human beings. *or some

alcohol replaces water as their basic "rink "uring meals. ut little "o these people know that too

much alcohol consumption coul" lea" to "amage to the bo"# s#stems.

Technicall#( not all t#pes of alcohol can be consume". +nl# ethanol( which is also calle"

beverage alcohol( can enter the bo"#. $f other t#pes of alcohol( like methanol an" isoprop#l go

into the bloo"stream( e'treme "amage an" even "eath ma# occur. Alcohol intake can be

measure" through the bloo" alcohol concentration =A&@. $t is counte" in percentages of ethanol

present in a persons bloo"stream at a certain perio". A higher A& means having a higher risk

of e'periencing impairments in the bo"# functioning. *or e'ample( "rinking various alcoholic

"rinks at shorter intervals greatl# affect a persons A&.

There are also a lot of m#ths an" misconceptions about alcohol "rinking. $t is not true

that alcohol gives #ou e'tra strength. Alcohol has ver# low nutritional content an" it has empt#

calories. rinking alcohol will not give #ou a boost of self)esteem either. $t is actuall# a

"epressant. $t slows "own the function of the central nervous s#stem =&>?@( making a person

vulnerable to "oing un"esirable things. These un"esirable things are often mistaken as results of

having a higher self)esteem. $t is also not true that one can be sober after "rinking alcohol

through consuming coffee. &offee is a stimulant. Gou can onl# have a "runk)awake person.

athing "oes not also count to the wa#s on how to sober up after heav# "rinking. $t ;ust pro"uces

the same effect as that of taking coffee. Alcohol is also not #et proven to be a cure to snake bites

an" other relate" in;uries.

There are two imme"iate effects of consuming alcohol: into'ication an" hangover.

$nto'ication happens when the alcohol goes into the bloo"stream( pro"ucing ph#sical an" mental

changes in the bo"#. These ma# inclu"e changes in sight( smell an" other senses. /angover on

the other han" is the occurrence of an uncomfortable feeling after getting into'icate". These

effects are onl# for occasional "rinking. ut when a person consumes alcohol consistentl# an"

heavil#( e'treme changes in the bo"# ma# occur. A person ma# suffer from liver "iseases like

2


24/29

cirrhosis. &irrhosis happens when an alcoholics liver is alrea"# being store" with fats. These

fats block the flow of bloo" insi"e the liver( making it "amage" an" malfunctioning.

Alcoholism in the hilippines is evi"ent. $t is sai" that alcohol "rinking is one of the most

a""ictive habit of *ilipinos =%ichar" Karco@. Alcoholism affects a persons ever#"a# life. $t

alters the normal activities of a person. ith this( the persons famil# will be affecte" too.

%eporte" cases of famil# violence are resulte" from alcohol a""iction. $f these cases get worse(

effects will be shown on a larger scale. The communities an" even the whole countr# will be

affecte".

+nl# a person can help himself. revention is still better than cure. That is wh# a person

must have a strong foun"ation of resistance skills. These skills involve getting the courage to

refuse the temptation of alcohol consumption. These skills also involve a"vocac# on the

prevention of alcohol a""iction. After all( it is alwa#s our choice. Alcohol is ;ust a colorless(

bitter)tasting liqui" that we can avoi" "rinking.
