But alcohol is a slippery slope.โฃโฃ
Alcohol consumption can also mess with a carefully planned-out diet, Exercise performance & Recovery.
The fitness industryโs anti-alcohol stance is due, in large part, to the (lack of) nutritional content contained in alcoholic beverages. Ethanol, the type of alcohol found in drinks, has toxic metabolic byproducts called acetaldehyde and acetate. Both by-products help create that queasy nauseous feeling you get when youโve put back a few too many. Chronic ingestion of alcohol can also mess with your digestion, making it difficult for your body to absorb nutrients like amino acids and B vitamins, and impairs protein synthesis. One study also suggests that 2-3 beers per day can lower oneโs testosterone levels.
Many alcoholic drinks are calorically very dense and packed with sugar. If youโre mixing your alcohol with things like energy drinks or juices from concentrate, or even having a few glasses of wine, you are giving yourself a sugary rush with each sip. Letโs also not forget that alcohol impairs your judgment. Those late night post-bar pizza runs canโt be too good for your summer beach body.
However, if users are able to practice some moderation with alcohol, a drink or two on occasion will not effectively poison your body and make you irreparably fat. There are some studies that suggest moderate alcohol consumption can provide health benefits. Much has been made of the heart-healthy components of a glass of red wine, but did you know that moderate beer consumption can improve your immune response and can reduce harmful C-reactive proteins (linked to heart disease)? All in all, alcohol is harmful when overdone. It can mess with your digestive system, liver, and diet. But if done within moderation and with clear judgment, it can be beneficialโand of course a ton of fun.
