An addiction to alcohol is a lasting same ailment that can damage a person's career and their family. It can also be fatal to their health if left untreated.
Substantial alcoholic drinks in-take on a regular basis causes chemical changes to a individual's brain. For example, it alters the composition of the body's gamma-aminobutyric acids, which function to inhibit impulsiveness, and glutamate, which fuels the nervous system. Unnecessary drinking also tends to drain these chemicals, which can depress the nervous system and hurt important areas of the brain.
Loss of control over the tongue and posture is symptomatic of an liquor-poisened bring, as is weariness, memory loss, weakness of the eye muscles, and paralysis. In critical cases, long-term substantial drinking can even send a person into a coma from which they may never awake.
In addition to the potentially lethal effects of alcohol poisening to the brain, other organs, such as the liver, can also be acutely effected. Unnecessary drinking causes alcoholic substances hepatitis, a disease that is characterized by inflammation of the liver. Its warning signs include appetite loss, vomiting, nausea, abdominal pain, fever, tenderness, jaundice, and dizziness. If the hefty drinking goes on, the hepatitis can lead to cirrhosis, which is characterized by progressive scarring and obliteration of the liver tissues.
Alcohol-addicted persons can also suffer serious gastrointestinal problems, such as inflammation of the stomach, that leads to a illness called 'gastritis'. A gastritis sufferer is unable to absorb nutrients through their stomach, such as vitamin B, folic acid and thiamin.
When alcoholic substances is consumed in heavy quantities, it also damages the pancreas and interferes with the organ creation of hormones that regulate metabolism of the body by creating enzymes for digestion. It can also led to a assortment of cardiovascular problems, such as high blood pressure, and can even damage the heart muscle - a condition called 'cardiomyopathy'. Cardiomyopathy significantly builds up the possibilities of heart attack.
Diabetes is another common disease amongst alcohol-addicted persons. High liquor intake prevents the liver from releasing glucose, which intensifies the risk of hypoglycemia (characterized by low blood sugar). This ailment is particularly dangerous for someone who is already suffering from diabetes and is taking insulin to reduce their blood-sugar level. Further, prolonged alcohol abuse tends to damage the reproductive system, leading to erectile dysfunction in men and menstrual problems in women.
Alcoholic drinks abuse during pregnancy is particularly grave, as it can give rise to fetal alcoholic drinks syndrome, where the child is born with defects, such as a small head, short eyelids, heart defects, and other abnormalities. And finally, research also displays that continued alcoholic drinks abuse places one at higher risk of cancer and diseases of larynx, esophagus, colon, and liver.
sarna_blr,
Nice article.
Should you still keep the question in the title of the thread (i.e..idhu sari dhAnA)?
app_engine, I didnt get you :?
PUBBING MAY CAUSE CANCER
Pubbing too much might just lead to cancer. Even if you dont smoke or are a teetotaler, just walking into a pub full of smoke has you inhaling 4000 toxic chemicals at any given point of time, reveal statistics. And with cancer being increasingly diagnosed in the age group of 30-45years, smoking and drinking are cited to be the biggest factors.
from todays DC.
sarna,
After placing so many facts that cry aloud that liqour destroys people and families, why you should still keep the "is it correct? (idhu sari dhAnA)" in the title of this thread?'nnu kEttEn.
innum puriyalaiyA?
app_engine, ippO ?
People also remember that high calorie, fatty junk foods are much harmful than alcohol. Fact is that a minimal amount of alcohol is good for health. My grandfather used to take a peg everyday before dinner. Problem in India is the sidedish or snacks which are taken with the alcohol are too much. That too all spicy, oily fries. Now mixing up alcohol with all these junks would definitely greet deadly diseases.Quote:

One of the posts from readers has this interesting phrase :
"தமிழன் என்று சொல்லடா, தலை நிமிர்ந்து (தள்ளாடாமல்) நில்லடா" :lol:
Also the news article talks about "import" :-)
So, is each state in India a different country as far as liquor is concerned ? Very good national integration!

டாக்குட்டரே கள்ளு குடிக்க அனுமதி கொடுத்தாச்சு!
Events like these lead me to think that it is better to have alcohol shops run by the state under strict quality control.
I still remember the "dry days" of TN when one had no other alternative than to take kaLLa sArAyam or kaLLu. The customers could avail the open bar under the palmayra trees, or had to bring their own bottles (ofcourse concealed in their shirts) if they had to take it to their houses.

As the plundering of people's money thru TASMAC by Midas wasn't affected even after DMK came to power, "discerning people" could guess that there's some business collab going on between mu-kA ghOshti & JJ ghOshti.
Karunanidhi cleverly terms that as DMK's magnanimity (i.e. allowing midAs to continue:-) )
Looks like there's some "sharing issue" now and ladAi started :-)

Most ILLUSTRATIVE to justify NON-ALCOHOLISM-
-- for any and every member of Mankind.
--whether this is TRUE EPISODE or FICTION--
-to remind US On the WORTH OF LIFE--
-- backed by Self-maintained CHARACTER.!!!

--as also all aspects pertained and allied with him / her--- like Family, Status, Wealth, Dignity, Character, Life-purpose, Social Reputation and what not.
Neither Science nor Religion grant sanction nor advise Mankind to be alcoholic by any reasoning.
It may be interesting to know that--
--while the various Religions differ in the most and many respects amongst themselves--
--No Religion authorises Drinking Alcohol or any such Intoxication--
--whatever be the justification.
Science too declares that Alcoholism / Intoxication vitiates ones PERSONAL CHARACTER--
--as well as the BASIC SELF-MIGHTS of Wisdom and Mind-Powers too.!
Yes the Person LOSES ONE-SELF in all respects, especially Health.
Intoxication is A SLOW-POISONING--- SUICIDAL HABIT.!

From today's Dinakaran newspaper:
A drunkard man beats up his wife and son aged 45,36,19 respectively. He attacked them with karla kattai and they became unconsicious and fell down. Thinking that they had died the man became mentally upset and later went to a nearby village and hanged himself on a tree. After sometime mother and son woke up and got themselves admitted to a hospital. Since the wife found her hubby missing she informed to her village police who launched a search mission but were unable to find her hubby. Meanwhile the nearby village police discovered a man hanging from a tree and later brought him to the same hospital for post - mortem. Incidentally the wife came out of her ward and saw her hubby's body passing by. Then as usual she started..... :cry: .. Kaneer kadhai....
You're incorrect here.Quote:

My barber recently died of a bad liver (I guess Alcoholic liver cirrhosis(sp?)), his son (who has been my barber since nearly 10 yrs) often told me his father would go drink EVERY night, after closing shop, irrrespective of anything! And worse still, he'd come home every night dead drunk and verbally, even physically abuse anyone and everyone he'd find at home! :(
He never gave up the habit even after he knew that his liver was going bad!
:roll: what is his age ??
liver cirrhosis is pretty common among alcoholics and a killer :-(
I know of two co-workers who died in 50's with this condition, exclusively due to drinking :-(
