One of the problems of our age is alcohol. Increasingly, young people are starting to use it at an early age, and even in large quantities. But alcohol can cause irreparable damage to the human body.

Scientists have been found that a substancecalled acetaldehyde causes irreversible damage to human DNA. However, it is a byproduct of ethanol upon cleavage in the body. And ethanol is added to the most modern drinks.

As an example, it was demonstrated that2 the cells have a mechanism to protect them against destruction. Thanks to the special properties of the enzymes will break down the toxin. However, if the amount of alcohol consumed is large, then this protection will be insufficient, leading to accumulation of acetaldehyde in the body. Accumulating toxin, it begins to damage the more and more human DNA. Then comes the stage of the second cell protective mechanism that repairs damaged DNA structure due to Fanconi proteins. In case if the body is not enough, the accumulated toxin inflict irreparable harm to the body and a person's DNA. Also occurs when experience with alcohol was tested on pregnant mice. As a result of experiments it was found that because of the drunkenness in the body begins to accumulate harmful toxins, which is enough to disrupt the body's protective mechanisms.

All this makes us think and look atthe body's defense mechanisms in a new way, because they protect our body from the harmful effects of alcohol. If you start an overabundance of acetaldehyde in the body, a person may appear red spots on the body or redness on the face, the symptoms may worsen until the fever. On the subject of alcohol was carried out more than one study, but it only confirms how harmful alcohol and your body is defenseless in front of him. That is why, if you feel that you can not refuse alcohol and your body is already screaming for help, there is only one way out - Treatment of alcohol dependence.
