In the period of the advent, for company dinners and Christmas events, it is easy to drink a few more glasses. But responsible behavior towards alcohol is often decisive because we know that too much striation. With the following tips, you will not have to worry about a few more glasses.

The consumption of alcohol has a long tradition: as an aperitif at events, to accompany party lunches or in the kitchen to refine the taste of certain dishes. Moderate consumption can even have positive effects on health. A glass of wine a day, for example, protects against a heart attack or stroke. But strong liqueurs should be consumed in moderation both in everyday life and during holidays and festivities.

Some tips for drinking alcohol in everyday life

• Alcohol is not a good thirst-quencher, to quench your thirst it is better to drink mineral water, unsweetened tea and diluted fruit juices.
• Give preference to beverages with low alcohol content. There are also alcohol-free alternatives of excellent quality.
• Savor an alcoholic beverage during a meal. With food intake, the speed with which alcohol passes into the bloodstream slows down. Also, during a meal, drink moderately and never empty the glass in one sip.
• Avoid alcohol in the evening hours because in the evening the body disposes of it less well than during the day.
• At the wheel, before or after a sports activity and during working hours, alcoholic beverages must absolutely be completely avoided.
