To be honest, when you look at the bright red wolfberries in the cup, are you thinking, "If you swallow this cup tonight, your waist will no longer be sore, your legs will no longer hurt, and you will be able to fight for another five hundred years"?
Stop pretending, who is not?
You know, we have to speak according to our conscience. Wolfberry is used to make wine, and it originally belonged to the category of "wine". So what exactly is alcohol? It is a first-level carcinogen. This is something that has been stamped and certified by the WHO and is completely beyond doubt. You actually put the anti-cancer wolfberry into alcohol containing carcinogens and soaked it, and you still imagined that they would interact to produce positive effects?
The illusion of one or two "health wine"
One or two a day doesn't sound like much. Just a small bite.
My father drank like this for twenty years. His rhetoric is very sufficient: "My wine contains wolfberry! It has the same nourishing effect as the soup your mother makes!".
To be honest, I am not willing to expose him, but the content of the few wolfberry grains contained in the one or two wines is not as good as the amount he put in when cooking at noon. People's Daily Online has already carefully calculated a relevant account. Only half a catty of wolfberry is added to one and a half catties of white wine. How much so-called "essence" can be separated out after brewing in this way is almost negligible.
To put it bluntly, the "health" you drink is a psychological placebo.
Liver: Am I being PUAd?
You drink one or two a day, and your liver is working overtime every day.
Once alcohol enters the stomach, the liver needs to immediately put aside all the things it is busy doing and quickly start metabolizing this toxic substance. If you drink alcohol today, it will be busy today; if you drink alcohol tomorrow, it will still have to be busy tomorrow. There is no time for rest throughout the year.
Some studies have shown that wolfberry wine has a beneficial effect on the intestinal flora of mice, and other studies have pointed out that it can be antioxidant. Come on, there’s no need to be in a hurry to rejoice. If you take a serious look at the dosage given to the mice in the experiment, how much would they drink if converted into a human dosage? The one or two you drink every day is far from even a fraction of other people's dosage. Before the effect of "regulating the flora" appears, alcoholic liver disease has already come to your door.
Stop treating animal experiments as an act to add glory to yourself. The functional substances have not yet been fully extracted, and the harm caused by alcohol is real.
Warm? Getting angry? Don't be ridiculous
Some people say that wolfberry wine is warm and tonic, and it can make your whole body warm after drinking it in winter.
What useless words? Even if you drink Erguotou, you will still feel warm. That is actually an illusion caused by the dilation of blood vessels caused by alcohol, and it has nothing to do with whether you soak wolfberry or not.
Some people are also worried that they will suffer from internal heat and diarrhea after drinking too much. This is indeed true. However, it is not because wolfberry has "heat", but because alcohol stimulates the gastrointestinal mucosa, thereby causing inflammation. If you replace wolfberry with longan, and then replace it with red dates, diarrhea will still occur. This responsibility cannot be borne by Wolfberry alone.
### Those “have to drink” moments
I know, I know.
When you go to a social event or dinner, you will face the cup handed to you by your father-in-law and leave it there. If you don't drink it, it will be regarded as not giving him face.
So I don’t advise you to quit, I advise you to “pretend”.
First, do not drink on an empty stomach. While drinking, fill your mouth with two bites of food, preferably braised pork with greasy characteristics like pork belly, which can put a "protective film" on the gastric mucosa. Don't trust hangover drugs. The most effective thing is actually this layer of oil.
Secondly, drink a lot of water and replenish water as much as possible. Every sip of wine was followed by two glasses of water. Don’t be bothered by frequent trips to the toilet. Urine is the fastest way to metabolize alcohol. The toxins in the drink must be excreted as soon as possible. If you sit at the drinking table and don't leave, the alcohol in your blood will not dissipate on its own.
Third, push the plate of bacon away. Stay away from salted fish, sausages and bacon. Alcohol is a first-level carcinogen, and nitrite is also a carcinogen. Put the two together, and you are simply preparing a full banquet for cancer cells.
The truth is cruel
Wolfberry is just an ordinary fruit. It contains sugar, some vitamins, and some so-called polysaccharides.
It is called health water when soaked in water, and it can only be called "flavored wine" when soaked in wine.
Without overstating it, the "Dietary Guidelines for Chinese Residents" clearly states that adult men should not consume more than 25 grams of alcohol per day, and adult women should not consume more than 15 grams. The corresponding conversion of high-alcohol liquor is roughly one tael of alcohol, and it should be noted that what is referred to here is not the "recommended amount", but the "bottom line". The safest alcohol consumption value is 0.
If you really believe in wolfberry, listen to me.
Grab a handful of wolfberries, soak them in boiling water and drink them. After drinking, chew the wolfberry.
As for wine, just push it if you can.
There is really no way to put that cup away, so don’t deceive yourself into thinking you are keeping healthy after drinking it. You have to comfort yourself: This situation is just socializing, and you have to pay the price. Then on the next day, go for a run for two laps to make your body sweat, and drink more water to make up for what you owed last night.
Don’t drink carcinogens and talk about health care at the same time.
This matter can be deceived by the mouth, but not by the liver.
