BMC Medicine: More than 300,000 people are at higher risk of death from drinking and not eating!

As we all know, drinking has become the number one killer of male deaths in the world! Alcohol-fuelled tragedies continue to unfold, and there are not a few cases of alcoholism, suicide self-harm, and drunk driving causing car accidents.
32.5 per cent of the world's people are current drinkers (defined as drinking in the past 12 months), while 709,000 people die each year in China, the highest number in the world, according to Lancet.
drinking alcohol not only causes a variety of diseases, but also kills them.
A recent study published in the journal BMC Medicine looked at 309,123 participants aged 38 to 73 at 22 different assessment centres in the UK Biobank database between 2006 and 2010 and measured the relationship between alcohol consumption frequency, type of alcohol consumption and drinking patterns.
the study, the researchers divided wine into five categories: red wine, beer/cider, spirits, white wine/gas/champagne and mixed wine.
of alcohol consumption is divided into three categories: 3-4 times a week and 1-2 times a week.
, the amount of alcohol consumed is defined as no more than 14 units (112 grams) per week.
the study, 47.8 percent of the participants drank an average of 1-14 units of alcohol per week.
43.3 per cent of participants drank more alcohol per week (15-35 units for women and 15-50 units for men) and increased health risks.
, 8.9 percent of the participants drank too much alcohol per week, with 35 units for women and 50 units for men, with a higher health risk.
In the risk assessment of alcohol type and health, drinking spirits and beer/cider and mortality, significant cardiovascular events, cirrhosis and the risk of accident/self-harm increased significantly compared to drinking red wine.
compared to drinking red wine, alcohol mortality increased by 25%, major cardiovascular events increased by 31%, the risk of cirrhosis increased by 48%, and the risk of accident/self-harm increased by 10%.
, the risk of drinking beer/cider increased by 18%, 16%, 36% and 11%, respectively.
, alcohol consumption without food consumption, mortality, major cardiovascular events, cirrhosis and the risk of accident/self-harm were higher in the eating and health risk assessment.
over the entire range of weekly alcohol consumption, subjects who drank without food were more likely to die and experience major cardiovascular events over a seven-year 100-year term.
While alcohol consumption frequency and health risk assessment were carried out, almost daily alcohol consumption was associated with a higher risk of mortality, with a higher risk of cirrhosis and a 14 per cent increased risk of death from drinking 1-2 times a week compared to participants who drank 3-4 times a week.
overall, people who regularly drink spirits and drink alcohol without eating have a higher risk of mortality, cardiovascular events, cirrhosis and accidents.
in short, wine this thing, can not drink do not drink, drink less also hurt.
