Alcoholic friend: Recently, the more I drink, the more I dare not drink. I feel that beer belly is becoming more and more obvious. I'm really worried whether this condition is a precursor of high cholesterol or high blood pressure. I often drink beer and feel that I have gained a lot of weight.
Doctor A: The traditional idea is that drinking too much beer will lead to a large "beer belly", but the latest research shows that how much beer you drink actually has nothing to do with your waist circumference. It is only the bad habit of eating for a long time that makes the intestines and stomach work hard that often leads to "beer belly".
Doctor B: Most people think that drinking a small amount of alcohol is good for their health. Drinking too much alcohol for a long time will reduce the ability of the liver to deal with fat, lead to fat accumulation in the body, form visceral fat, and also lead to metabolic syndrome such as fatty liver, hyperlipidemia, hypertension, and even sudden death.
Doctor C: Obese people are prone to chronic diseases such as hypertension, coronary heart disease and diabetes. Medical statistics show that obese people suffer from coronary heart disease five times more than normal people, hypertension eight times more than normal people, and diabetes seven times more than normal people.
Doctor D: Don't eat outside: The food in restaurants often contains more energy and fat than the food cooked at home. Watch out for restaurants that offer low-fat meals near your unit. Don't go to fast food chains because there are few low-fat foods to choose from.
