Does drinking cold beer hurt your stomach in summer?

In hot weather, drinking a little cold beer is really refreshing and delicious, and drinking a little cold beer before meals can not only make people feel cool and quench their thirst, but also stimulate and increase their appetite. However, drinking a lot of cold beer before meals is very harmful to health, especially to people who exercise a lot. The temperature of chilled beer is generally about 20 ~ 30 degrees Celsius lower than that of human body. Excessive drinking of chilled beer can easily lead to a sudden drop in the temperature in the gastrointestinal tract, rapid contraction of blood vessels in the gastrointestinal tract and reduced blood flow, thus causing physiological dysfunction and affecting the digestion and absorption of nutrients in food. At the same time, drinking too much cold beer will greatly reduce the secretion of gastric acid, pepsin, amylase and lipase in the small intestine, which will easily lead to digestive dysfunction. In addition, drinking too much cold beer will stimulate the local mucosa of the gastrointestinal tract through supercooling, which will accelerate its peristalsis and cause dyskinesia. As time goes on, frequent abdominal pain and diarrhea may occur. Secondly, drinking a lot of cold beer will hinder normal eating and normal digestion and absorption of food, and will also lead to a decrease in appetite, leading to a lack of energy and nutrition in the human body. So it is better to drink less cold beer before meals. If you must drink it, you should also drink it in moderation, preferably half a bottle or no more than one bottle. For those who have just done too much exercise, take a break and then drink slowly to avoid hurting themselves.

Beer contains few nutrients, it contains no vitamins, only a little protein and sugar. We often say how many degrees of beer, refers to the sugar it contains.

In addition, beer also contains 4%-5% alcohol, but the proportion of alcohol in beer is much lower than that of spirits, so the total calories are lower.

Some people think that the bitter taste of hops can promote the secretion of digestive juice and help the human body digest and absorb food, resulting in an increase in appetite and calories.

People will get fat. Others think that a bottle of beer contains about 1.3 mg of nicotinic acid (a component of vitamins), which can promote the burning of other nutrients and release energy, thus leading to obesity. Both of the above statements are very reasonable, but beer itself has limited calories after all, and drinking three or two cups will not make you fat.

However, binge drinking is another matter. Think about it, seven or eight liters of beer into the stomach, the gastrointestinal load is too large, the accumulation of alcohol makes the gastrointestinal blood vessels contract, and the intestines "can't walk". The gastrointestinal tract is like a capsule, which expands bigger and bigger, and finally looks like a big ball in the stomach. If you soak in beer all day, the contraction function of the gastrointestinal tract will be greatly weakened, and will it eventually become a "beer belly"? And so much beer provides a lot of heat. Every100g of beer provides 40-50 kilocalories, and 8 liters of beer provides 1600 kilocalories, which is basically equivalent to the heat required by a person with a height of 160 cm for a whole day. After drinking so much beer, you can't stop eating something else all day, but after eating it, it means too many calories, and obesity will naturally appear on you.

If you want to drink beer and don't want to get fat, please be temperate when drinking beer, and don't "binge drink".

I hope you can adopt it. Thank you.
