10 glasses of wine a week can cut your life expectancy by two years
10 glasses of wine a week can cut your life two years, experts warn.
Drinking 10 glasses of alcohol a week can reduce life expectancy by two years, a large study said.
Even a glass of wine daily or a liter of beer significantly increases your risk of heart disease and stroke. The likelihood of this risk increases as more alcohol is consumed, leading researchers at Cambridge.
Experts conclude that, for a 40-year-old person, drinking alcohol causes an average loss of about 15 minutes of life expectancy in their lives. It was a time to smoke a cigarette. These findings support an increase in average life expectancy in the UK, suggesting that there is no safe level and recommend that both men and women drink alcohol should not exceed 14 times per week.
The main author, Dr. Angela Wood, said: "The main message of this study is that if you drink alcohol, drink less alcohol can help you live longer and reduce the risk of some cardiovascular diseases."
Alcohol is linked to a variety of health complaints including cardiovascular problems, liver disease, some types of cancer and dementia. This is the sixth cause of illness for people in their 50s and 60s, with increasing numbers. Experts say moderate alcohol consumption can raise blood pressure, which causes heart attack, stroke and other circulatory problems.
Researchers surveyed 83 studies involving 600,000 people from 19 high-income countries, with nearly half of the data coming from the UK.
About half of the people surveyed reported that they drank more than 12.5 drinks per week - about 5 glasses of average wine or alcohol - while nearly one-tenth (8.5%) drank more than three times. Scientists have discovered that a 40-year-old man exceeds the standard of 100g of pure alcohol, about five glasses a week, with a life span of less than 6 months.
People who drink ten or more glasses, about two bottles of wine, have reduced their life to two years, while those who drink 18 or more alcoholic drinks per week may live less than five years.
This study, partly funded by the British Heart Foundation, also examines the association between alcohol and cardiovascular disease. High alcohol consumption has been linked to the risk of stroke, heart failure, fatal hypertension, and high fatal aneurysm.
In contrast, experts say that drinking a lot of alcohol increases cholesterol levels, which can help protect against fatty deposits in blood vessels, reducing the risk of cardiovascular disease and circulation.
But in general, they say there is no health benefit from alcohol consumption and more research is needed to explore this connection. The findings are almost the same for both men and women, suggesting the recommended level for both sexes should be the same.
Victoria Taylor, a senior dietitian at the British Heart Foundation, said the study seemed to "broadly strengthen" the government's guidelines. Professor David Spiegelhalter, professor of the Department of Understanding of Public Risks at Cambridge University, compares results with smoking.
"This is a big and very impressive study," he said. ‘The report estimates that a 40-year-old youth who drinks four glasses of wine a day has a life span of less than two years, about one-twentieth of their remaining lives.
