Alcoholic Drinks Promote knowledge Don’t ignore ignorance


Alcoholic Drinks
Promote knowledge
If you want to drink learn to be responsible
Don’t fight against knowledge
Don’t ignore ignorance
More to knowledge signifies better choices
Consumption isn’t mandatory

Alcohol - Ethyl alcohol or ethanol
  A neurotoxic psychoactive chemical
It results from fermentation of sugary materials
It’s in all beverages that have alcohol
Nice for those who like
Unpleasant for those who don’t like
It’s the same as exists in pharmacies

Alcoholic Drinks
Alcohol is not innocent
Adults have to protect minors
They have to be responsible and not give minors alcohol
They have to make known and tell the whole truth about
alcoholic drinks
Those who don’t know can learn

Alcoholic Drink
Recommendation
Only for those over the age of 18 
who aren’t taking medicine

MODERATE CONSUMPTION
Low Risk
Men - Up to 3 Units / day
(21 per week)
Women - Up to 2 Units / day
(14 per week)
Occasional Consumption
Up to 4 Units one day

Alcoholic Drink
ONE Unit
1 Standardized Drink-UBE is equivalent to 8 to 12 g of alcohol
(8 to 10 g in many references)
        One glass of wine
                Half a pint
                Half a brandy
                Half a whisky
Similar alcohol amounts
               Different flavor, volume and price

Alcoholic Drinks
Don’t guarantee joy
Consumption misuse is a cultural misconception
Learning how to correctly use alcohol
is the best way to prevent risks and damages
Abusive consumption shows
a lack or absence of Health Education
Fun doesn’t mean always joy
Get rid of ignorance

Alcoholic Drink
Learning to Reduce risks
Drink water and quench thirst
Drink alcohol slowly to have time to savour the taste
Between 2 drinks with alcohol drink 1 without alcohol
This way you can better understand what you drink

Alcoholic Drinks
Drinking ? Why ?
For what reason?
To enjoy or vomit?
To zoom in or out?
To enjoy the taste or gulp down?
To be accepted or rejected?
To have fun or to be ridiculous?
To disinhibit or fall asleep?


Alcoholic Drinks
Consumption?
For the sake of whom?
More alcohol doesn’t make more friends
Alcohol makes you talk a lot and listen less
Those who drink to be able to speak
drink more and more
Those who drink to diminish stress create more anxiety

and more need to drink

Alcoholic Drinks
To reduce risks
1st  Empty stomach? Never !

2nd Alone ? Don’t drink

3rd Don’t accept rounds

4th Drink small sips

5th Don’t drink to calm

6th Don’t drink under stress

7th Don’t drink if you are sad

8th Respect the limits 

Alcoholic Drinks
Promote thinking
More and more consumption Is for what reason?
Those who consume in gulps
don’t use the time to savour and taste
Those who consume abusively lose the capacity to appreciate to listen, to feel and to enjoy

Alcoholic Drinks
With Education
Those who have self-esteem kill their thirst with water
Those who have self-esteem and also enjoy
drinking alcohol take time to appreciate and taste
Those who know how to drink feel well with themselves
and with others

 Alcoholic Drinks
Truth ?  Lie ?
Is it a food ?
Does it warm you ?
Does it help digestion ?
Is it good for the heart ?
Does it quench your thirst ?
Does it open up your appetite ?
Does it give your body more strength?
Does it improve your sexual performance?
All this is an illusion


Alcoholic Drink
A chemical not innocent
In the brain it modifies our knowledge and
the capacity to think evaluate, speak, hear, and see
It interferes with our reflexes, walking and movements
High doses disturb our breathing and may cause
coma and death


Alcoholic Drink
Consumption
Is not mandatory
Alcohol can cause more than 60 diseases
that can be avoided
To know how to consume is an act of culture
Do I have the knowledge and the freedom to choose?
Do I have the freedom to not drink?



Alcoholic Drink
Another glass?
Another mistake?
One drink disguises the problem but just for a short time
It doesn’t solve it just makes it worse.
More consumption means more risks behaviors
on the sidewalk, on the road, in the car,
in families, at home, in bed.

Alcoholic Drink
More abuse
More damage
Consumption with damage, sequels or after-effects
The person who abused doesn’t remember
what happened
Those who saw, those who heard, cannot forget
what they witnessed.

Alcoholic Drink
Blow in the balloon test
Grams of alcohol per liter of blood
EUPHORIA up to 0,5
Less Criticism  Less Skill
LOSSES  0.5 – 1
Memory and Skills
Attention Judgment
DAMAGES  1 - 3
Walking  Strength  Vomiting
Speech  Vision  Critical  Ability
COMA  3 – 5
Lack of Reflexes and Breathing
DEATH  >  5

You will never blow again

Alcoholic Drink
Abuse in humans
Those who consume abusively flaunt themselves
They feel so “puffed up”
They feel as proud as, a rooster or peacock

If they continue, they will do nothing but nonsense
They behave like a monkey
If they insist, they lose their good manners and may vomit urinate or soil themselves
They behave like a pig
If they insist they risk coma
They then…can die

Alcoholic Drink
Change sexual behavior
Promises will increase
Capacities will decrease
Too much alcohol, too many risks
I don’t know what is happening
I don’t even know what happened
                             
Alcohol increases desire
   and decreases performance (WS)



Alcoholic Drink
Alcohol isn’t innocent
Do I have a friend who is suffering?
Is it due to dependency?
Is it due to another disease?
Does he/she use it as self-medication?
From use without damage to alcohol related diseases
there are steps on this path

Alcoholic Drink

Was I taught how to drink?
Dependence is harmful
It is one of the diseases which is a consequence of misuse
It isn’t a personal or moral weakness
The main symptom Is the loss of control
in consumption
Analyze the situation with the Medical Doctor


Alcoholic Drink
Being dependent
Having to consume when the effect disappears
Feeling relieved when having a drink, ~
but getting worse due to drinking
Hiding what you drink
Having to increase the dose
Failing to be able to reduce the amounts
Having an obsession with getting more
This means losing your freedom not to drink
TREATMENT IS POSSIBLE

Alcoholic Drink

To be dependent
is not a goal
Hangovers is a sickness
Intoxication is a sickness
Addiction is a sickness
when drinking is no longer a pleasure
Listen to the sober consumer
Don’t let children see you drunk
Diseases due to alcohol are treatable


Alcoholic Drink
Abuse is Harmful Use

PREVENTION
of misuse is for everybody

TREATMENT
it’s a necessity for those who fell ill
Neither is it a prize, nor punishment
It’s beneficial to all
CONSUME REDUCTION
it’s for anyone who abuses and still doesn’t accept
abstinence
CHANGE IS POSSIBLE
