Extended information:
The chemical component of wine is ethanol, which generally contains trace amounts of fusel alcohols and esters. The concentration of edible liquor is generally 60 degrees. (i.e. 60%) or less (a few have more than 60 degrees), the liquor is fractionated and purified to more than 75% to become medical alcohol, and purified to more than 99.5% to become absolute ethanol. Liquor is brewed from grain through fermentation.
Long-term heavy drinking can lead to heart failure, which is manifested as ventricular enlargement and low left ventricular systolic function. The appearance and regression of the disease are related to drinking. When drinking is stopped, the heart failure can be improved or at least not eliminated. Further deterioration, and heart failure relapses after drinking again. If this happens repeatedly, it will cause irreversible damage to the myocardium. Even after stopping drinking, there will still be progressive deterioration of heart function, causing "alcoholic cardiomyopathy".
In addition, the incidence of atrial fibrillation in alcoholics is also very high. If the atrial fibrillation caused by poisoning can be stopped early, the disease can be reversed or stabilized.
Alcohol is a pure caloric food. Long-term heavy drinking can increase weight, affect the body's sugar metabolism and increase the production of triglycerides. Obesity and hyperlipidemia are both risks of coronary heart disease. Therefore, long-term heavy drinking can increase the prevalence of coronary heart disease, and the mortality rate from coronary heart disease in heavy drinkers also increases.
