Alcohol isn't the bad one, Humans are!

in #health7 years ago

Good day steemians, welcome to my blog. Today, I would like to tackle the issue of alcohol usage and how humans have made it bad.
According to Wikipedia, “In chemistry, an alcohol is any organic compound in which the hydroxyl functional group is bound to a saturated carbon atom”.
In today's world, alcohol usage has been very rampant. Alcohol is widely use around the world in the production of drugs, beverages, etc.

The intake of alcohol at a moderate level has some benefit it does to our health.

  • it helps in preventing cold.
  • it helps in reducing the chance of developing dementia.
  • it can increase ones libido.
  • can also reduce the chance of having diabetes and gallstone.
    The moderate level here is taking not more than two cups for men and one cup for women.

    As of today, humans have so much abuse the use of alcohol intake for their social activities. While some claim they take it to fight depression, which in fact isn't so, take too much of alcohol and thereby abusing it.
    Here are some of the disadvantages of taking too much alcohol.
  • it can lead to diabetes.
  • it can damage the brain.
  • it can cause erectile dysfunction for men and infertility for women.
  • it can also lead to heart failure, and so on.

    In light of this, it's the too much intake of alcohol that causes bad things to people because they don't take it a moderate level. Humans are to be blamed for their actions , not alcohol.
