The youth have problem with their weight; what is right and what is not about food and weight reduction? 8. Late-night meal…

Overweight and obesity is a big health problem at present. In all the countries the youth have problem with their weight. Young women have eating disorders or overweight. Young men have problem with his T-Shirt when the weather becomes mild. The health insurances say that almost 30% of the persons treated for weight problems are below 18 years old. The youth must be given the right information so that they know what they do and what is right. I try to explain some of the important general points from today onwards.

What about the food we do eat after 7 p.m. Can they support the weight gain? Many believe this. But, as we know the total calories taken are the deciding one. The metabolism plays no role here. You can eat during day or night. If you take 1500 or 1800 calories they are always the same. It has no direct effect on weight loss or gain.

What really matters is the total calories from the food and drinks you have over the period of a day or a week or a month or longer and how much energy you spend during that period. Excess calories are stored as fat, regardless of whether they are taken before or after 7 p.m. During night we must sleep and during day we work or go to school or do many physical activities. Even if you sleep the body does not stop working. The heart is beating, blood is circulating, lungs are functioning and even the brain is working. Therefore, talking of fast or slow metabolism does not help us here to reduce weight.

But, there are dangers for weight gain if you take the following foods during the night and they include:

• Avoid larger portions in the night
• Avoid fast food. Many feel well to eat fast food such as pizza or burger than steamed vegetables or other usual food.
• A meal in the night is good, but too much of snacks are very bad. The chips and other snacks taking in the night during TV time is the worst and increase the fat content in the body.
• Never avoid meals during day and this makes you to eat unlimited amounts in the night and you take more calories than usual.

Late-night meal has no effect on metabolism and weight gain or loss. However, avoiding big meal and excess snacks is the right strategy to reduce or maintain the weight.

Hair Mineral Analysis

Minerals and trace elements

"Our daily bread" is composed of two nutritional groups: the macro nutrients such as Carbohydrates, fat, protein, fiber and micronutrients such as vitamins, phytonutrients, and minerals, including the trace elements.

Minerals play a vital role in our metabolism. They are necessary for our healthy growth and are the building material for bones and teeth. Minerals are important constituents of enzymes and hormones. They act in the blood, tissues and cells. Children, pregnant women and the elderly need more minerals.

Macro elements are sodium, potassium, calcium, phosphorus, magnesium and chlorine. These are needed in grams or milligrams per day and are supplied from our food. Trace elements, however, are virtually all metals in low amounts. They are needed to our body in milligrams or micrograms and the source of them are our food. While all the major elements are essential for specific physiological functions, only few trace elements such as Iron, fluorine, chromium, iodine, cobalt, copper, manganese, selenium, zinc, nickel, etc. are essential.

Several trace elements are not necessary for the body. Others are toxic in high amount and they include: aluminum, lead, cadmium, mercury and arsenic. These may be often found in high concentrations in vegetables, fruits, seafood, and in the organ meats of cattle and wild animals. If we want to protect us from the toxic metals it is advisable to eat minimum amount of organ meat.

The requirement for minerals is dependent on its association with the overall metabolism, the various life processes and the nature of the food taken. In general, a healthy body is adequately supplied with minerals and trace elements by a good diet with mixed vegetable and animal foods. The 4000 biochemical reactions in our body need the essential macro and trace elements.

Incorrect or poor diet upsets the metabolism and thus brings forth a number of health complaints also.

ICP-MS technique was used for the determination of the elements and this is the best available method for multielement analysis.

The following elements are determined:

The toxic elements are:

• Aluminium
• Antimony
• Arsenic
• Barium
• Beryllium
• Bismuth
• Cadmium
• Lead
• Mercury
• Platinum
• Thallium
• Thorium
• Uranium
• Nickel
• Silver
• Tin
• Titanium

The essential elements are:

• Calcium
• Magnesium
• Sodium
• Potassium
• Copper
• Zinc
• Manganese
• Chromium
• Vanadium
• Molybdenum
• Boron
• Iodine
• Lithium
• phosphorus
• Selenium
• Strontium
• Sulphur
• Cobalt
• Iron
• Germanium
• Rubidium
• Zirconium
• Nickel

The blood tests indicate the current situation of the elements present in the blood or blood plasma. The levels are low in blood usually when the entire reserve is used up. The hair values, however, give much more information about the situation in the past few weeks or months.

The important reasons for hair mineral analysis include:

• Heavy metals - such as mercury, cadmium, lead etc.
• An unbalanced supply of essential elements of industrially produced food
• An unbalanced diet or malnutrition ...
• Illness-related shifts ...

A proper analysis and interpretation can provide many information about the health and metabolism. A personalized diet plan can put your metabolism back in order.

It can also be precisely used to recommend the right food supplements if necessary.

If you order for a hair mineral analysis and individual diet plan after payment a sampling kit with instructions and the questionnaire are sent. According to that cut your hair and send to us along with the filled questionnaire.

Is there any safe pill to reduce my weight?

There are no safe pills to reduce your weight. All the pills have side effects and they bring only very low weight reduction..

It is better to understand your metabolism and food. If you have good knowledge in these you have no problem to reduce weight. Many eat simply without knowing what they are eating.

There are many hidden calories which you never think. These are in soft drinks, snacks and in sweets. Avoid these and eat fresh vegetables and fruits everyday.

Gym or quick walking also helps to reduce weight. Why do you need then chemicals?

We read here so much about raw food. Are they really good?

Raw food is good if they are fresh or frozen. Whether you eat normal or raw you need all the macro- and micro-nutrients to run your metabolism.

Take for example a person drinks a glass of fresh orange juice and few small raw tomatoes with his breakfast. At 10 a.m. she / he eats a tasty apple.

For lunch he takes everyday a good salad and his normal food. In course of day he / she eats a banana or few slices of mango. Carrots and cucumber are eaten raw throughout the world. She or he likes raw almond, cashew nuts and other seeds like sunflower seeds or pumpkin seeds.

For dinner, there are fruit juice and other fruits also. With this without any problem a normal person eats 50% raw. If it goes to more than this percent then you need help.

Every medal has two sides. Raw food also has many substances which could interfere with the absorption of few nutrients. You must have thorough knowledge about food.

To be healthy it is important to know the other 50% or less very well. Food supplements are also not an easy answer for every food problem.

At first try to calculate how many percent you eat raw everyday. After that it is easy to decide.

We talk about vitamins and minerals. What are they exactly?

A vitamin is an organic substance which our body needs but cannot synthesize it. Vitamin D is the exception. All the other vitamins we must get from our food.

Minerals are inorganic substances such as sodium, potassium, iron, zinc, selenium, iodide, calcium, magnesium etc. The essential minerals are a must for our good health. Some minerals we need more and others very little.

Vitamins and minerals are very important for the smooth functioning of thousands of chemical reactions in our body. A good functioning metabolism is a guarantee for our good health.

We need constant and adequate supply of vitamins and minerals. Our good foods have enough of them.

My husband told me that his doctor advised him to drink now and then Brandy. It is good for his health. Is it possible?

This is not possible. Your husband is not telling the truth.

No doctor in this world will advise somebody to take alcohol. The doctors know well that alcohol in small quantities is good and in excess bad for our health.

Alcohol can make one an addict. There are hundreds of millions of addicts in our world. They not only destroy them but also their whole family.

The calories what we take from alcohol is only empty calories and alcohol is not necessary for our metabolism.

Even the good red wine in small quantity is also not recommended by the doctors. They know well that from one glass it can become 3 and after that one bottle or more.

Talk to your husband and explain him everything. After that he has to decide.

What are the symptoms of Magnesium deficiency?

Magnesium is a very important mineral for our metabolism. More than 300 enzymes in the body contain magnesium.

The symptoms of magnesium deficiency include:

• Fatigue and weakness
• Loss of appetite
• Nausea
• Vomiting
• Muscle contraction and cramps
• Seizures
• Abnormal heart rhythms
• Coronary spasms
• Nervousness
• Sleeplessness
• Premenstrual syndrome worsens
• Osteoporosis risk is increased

Asthma, migraines, headaches, depression, fibromyalgia, anxiety, arthritis, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder and kidney stones get worse due to magnesium deficiency.

Why is it harmful to eat normal food even once, when one is on diet?

Everybody knows whether cheese or other food products, it is very tasty when the fat content goes over 45%. At the same time diet cheese is available with 0.2% fat but it tastes almost nothing.

For example, a young woman goes every second day for shopping, buys the diet food. Food containing 45% to 80% fat are placed in the near shelves and it tempts her every time. After a week she is convinced by her discipline in the last six days and now one day she thinks that she could eat normal which may not be harmful to her. She goes to the next shelf and buys things which she likes very much and all the calories she has saved in last six days are gone. This is repeated billions of times in the world.

The important problem is not only she ate much but her metabolism was slow because of her diet. This is a very important to understand.

When I had my rehabilitation, I used to talk about food with a supermarket manager. I asked him why they keep diet products and high fat products nearby shelves in the supermarkets. He replied that their aim was to attract and animate people to buy the fatty food which is made out of all waste fat and meat. This is more profitable for them also.

Instead of calculating the calories and eating some tasteless diet products, we must know what our body needs and why? Only this will make us happy, healthy and helps to reduce the weight as well as its maintenance.

Have you ever tried any of these drugs abused?

No, I know how harm it could make for my health, I am more happy with few friends or with a cup of black coffee or with a wonderful glass of red wine or my family from where I derive my pleasure and strength.

In my safe in our institute with a licence from the central medical authorities of our government I had all the pure drugs – cannabis to heroin including all party drugs - as well as the drugs from the parents who had found out doubtful substances from their children’s bags or pockets which came to us for analysis.

Once I wanted to test the metabolism and pharmacokinetic of a substitution medicine, dihydrocodeine for heroin addicts. After getting the permission of ethic committee of the doctors association from our state I took four days to know the effects of this substitution medicine, dihydrocodeine, the concentration in my body, to know the metabolic pattern in urine and the duration of its presence in my body, so to say about its metabolism.

The main condition was that during this period of 6 days I should not drive my car, come to office only in Taxi and should not use my car even for emergency reasons. My taxi driver was very happy during these days.

Another doctor may take one more medicine, like this we improved our knowledge irrespective of the information from the pharmaceutical companies or other agencies who give lot of information and publications from their own results and views. Each side say, they are correct, so it is better to test personally and have the first hand information.

Say always no to drugs; they are not good for our health…

Enzymes

Enzymes are the most important substances which are present in human beings as well as in animals and plants. These are complex protein molecules in all living cells and catalyse and regulate almost all biochemical reactions that occur within the human body.

Our digestion, our energy, the functions of our body, our immune system and much more depends upon the presence of enzymes and their capacity to function.

Enzymes are catalysts. The reactions which need high temperatures such as 50 or 100 or 150 degrees C can be performed in our body at 37 degree C with the help of the enzymes as catalysts. This is the wonder of our creation.

There are two groups - digestive and metabolic - enzymes. They are stored in organs, such as, liver and be used wherever they are needed.

Some important biochemical reactions that occur inside our 100 trillion cells are the energy production, detoxification and oxygen free radical scavenging. It is aptly said that our cells can survive only with the help of the metabolic enzymes.

The important duties of the digestive enzymes are the digestion and absorption of all nutrients from our food. The major work is to digest carbohydrates, protein and fat. The digestive enzymes include pepsin, trypsin, lipase, protease, ptyalin and amylase. Our body cannot produce cellulase, an enzyme necessary for the digestion of certain fibre and here the raw foods are the best source.

Our body accepts the enzymes from our raw food thankfully which are saved till the body needs. Therefore, the foods containing enzymes are very healthier to us.

Fresh raw vegetables and fruits are very good source of enzymes. Cooking makes different degrees of degradation. The production of these enzymes is a very complicated process in our organs utilising different, important nutrients including many metals like zinc, magnesium, copper, manganese and others.

Enzymes are also organizing the necessary functions or synthesize new bio-chemicals in the body which are necessary to build and repair the bones, cells, other organs and the tissues.

Enzymes are responsible for synthesizing, delivering, distributing, constructing, repairing and also eliminating wastes from our 100 trillion cells by giving the substances and chemicals to our body to live. Without enzymes there is no life.

Enzymes play a vital role in many diseases, such as, high blood pressure, diabetes, liver diseases, respiratory infections, cold, flu, heartburn, indigestion, weakened immune system, depression, burn out syndrome, migraines, pre-menstruation-syndrome, candida, fibromyalgia, arthritis, hyperactivity, anxiety, lack of concentration, constipation, fatigue, allergies, obesity and many others.

There are substances or metals which can inhibit the action of the enzymes and they are as follows:

• Almost all chemicals in excessive amount are poisonous to enzymes
• Heavy metals such as mercury present in amalgam, aluminium in antacid, deodorants, tea and cucumber, cadmium from seafood and tobacco smoke and lead can take the place of essential elements in the enzymes thus preventing the action of the enzymes.
• Over-the-counter, prescription and illegal drugs such as novalgin, aspirin, cannabis, cocaine and other designer drugs can be inhibitors.
• Pesticides and all the other chemicals used in the agriculture
• Solvents from household, industries and car exhausts, such as benzene, chlorinated solvents, ethylene glycol
• Alcohol, such as methanol, ethanol, propanol, butanol etc.
• Caffeine from coffee, tea and chocolates
• Tobacco smoking and passive smoking
• Oxygen free radical and other free radicals

All the chemicals used in the food processing are not good for the enzymes, I have examined the blood sample of people who ate only processed food for months together without taking fresh raw vegetables and their enzyme status is mostly bad compared to an average person. Women are worse than men.

Grilled meat is worse than cigarettes. But smoking is worse than one time of eating grilled meat, since cigarettes are being smoked everyday.

Stress in the family or in the office or extreme worries and financial problems can affect the amount of enzymes produced and it is same with diseases also.

Aging causes the body to produce fewer enzymes and the whole metabolism and digestion can become slow.

Why is raw food in our diet important?

Depending upon your cooking process, an average of 50% of the enzymes gets destroyed. Fresh, raw foods contain the highest amount of enzymes which catalyse thousands of chemical reactions in our body. Dried and denatured foods have no enzymes which in course of time do not promote health and longevity.

Of all known fruits, pineapple contains a large amount of digestive or metabolic or both enzymes. Eat pineapple regularly if you have no allergy.

Metabolism based individual diet plan

The main functions of metabolism are to break food, digest, get energy from the nutrients, to synthesize protein, fats, carbohydrates and nucleic acids and their combinations and synthesize special substances for various cellular functions. It is the total of all the biochemical reactions an organism needs to survive.

These reactions are controlled by enzymes, the protein catalysts. Food provides many substances which are essential for the building, upkeep and repair of body tissues. It must supply carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, phosphorous, sulphur, at least 17 vitamins and 18 inorganic elements. Apart from carbohydrates, fats and protein many antioxidants and other phytochemicals are also needed for the healthy functioning of the body. If there is a deficiency or excess in these nutrients the metabolism cannot function properly and the health problem starts there and it is not easy to find out the reasons and to treat it. Do not forget water is the most important food.

It is important to find out whether a person is getting all the nutrients needed and it could be achieved if he writes his food calendar for 14 days. Everything what one eats and drinks must be written there and from that an expert can judge what is needed and what should be avoided. Alternatively, 3 cm hair from his back head from the skin is cut and the hair minerals are estimated. From these 24 minerals also we could estimate the metabolism of a person to write the individual diet plan.

Then a diet plan is made tailor-made for this individual to support his metabolism. It needs six weeks to see the changes and this diet must be followed for three months and after that it is corrected once again for the normal day to day life. When the metabolism functions properly many of the unknown diseases also disappear. A good functioning metabolism burns more calories and weight reduction is not at all a problem without any hunger.

A good functioning metabolism prevents many health problems and here the role of food is very important. Food is not a medicine to heal all the diseases but the right food can prevent and support the treatment of many diseases. Food must supply the necessary nutrients for a good functioning metabolism. Medicines are important to treat diseases, but with many unwanted side effects. The right food has no side effects and it is worth to try. Since one takes almost the same food during weight reduction and afterwards it is easy to maintain the weight for ever. If you understand well about the food everything is easy.

As usual enough physical activity must accompany a good diet.

How to get flat stomach?

It is very easy, eat metabolism based individual diet and do few simple exercises for your stomach muscles and you could achieve this very quickly.

Weight gain is a common side effect of different medicines and if it is the case, then you have less chance. Consult your doctor to get another medicine which does not have this side effect if possible. With the help of your doctor find out the minimum but effective dose of the medicine and then it is possible to reduce some weight.

Eating dry fruits or ice creams or other banned foods, are there any alternative to enjoy these foods?

From the information what you give I make a metabolism based individual diet plan for you. You must eat according to this plan and it gives you pleasure to follow it.

After three months, once the desired results are achieved the diet plan would be changed little bit and this would be your future plan. During this time I ask you the foods which you like the most. Here I embed some of these things in your diet plan which were banned for the first three months here without taking any risk to your health.

The words banning or sacrificing make many mad and we could act here in an intelligent manner. If you know what is happening well, you have no problems to accept the good advices.

I have elevated cholesterol, should I avoid all the non-vegetarian food?

You need not avoid any food because cholesterol is only one of the many hundreds or thousands of nutrients.

You must know what and how much you eat for your individual metabolism. Such plans could be made by dieticians and if the plan is a very professional one, you can eat everything and could also keep your cholesterol level normal. It is better to avoid all the other risk factors for the heart.

Do not forget the physical activities. We move less in this modern time and this worst than all other risk factors.

Others say, do not eat a particular food and you say, it is possible to eat everything, why?

I never told that eat everything, if I know lot about you, I can try to calculate your metabolism by considering what all food and fluids you have taken during the last 14 or 28 days.

I have to go through your medical records and finally I can tell you several things about you which you may not even know. Human beings and their metabolism are fascinating and you can learn and understand more, if you try to bring the theory and practical application together. There are several questions, solve one after another and your goal will come nearer and nearer. But, it is not the same design for everybody, it is individual and persons who understand this can do a lot of good things to others.

I am a simple person who wants to know always why, to find out the solution for many problems. I allow you eat everything because I know your limits and could teach you how to adjust it with your other meals.

I am very careful with my food, fruits and vegetables, low fat milk, cereals and swim every day and go to gym, but I am not losing any weight...

What you eat is good but I have no information about your weight, height, how much and when you take your food and also how much water you drink.

My experience is if you do more exercise and reduce your food intake, your metabolism slows down very much and only few calories are burnt. Eat normally, drink enough, 3 to 4 litre of water, more physical activity and have patience for few weeks. Your body gets more calories, more physical activity and now burns more calories and your weight will come down.

The side-effects of some of the medicines also increase your weight and in this case you can eat less but your weight will not come down but can go up. A personal consulting with your doctor and dietician can clear this situation. The minimum effective dose of the medicine must also be found out by your doctor; otherwise the chances are very bleak.

Alcohol

Alcohol is a social drug. Millions are addicted to it and thousands of families are spoiled. Social drinking is good, but some one must teach the people what social drinking is.

Is alcohol necessary for our metabolism?

It is a good question; alcohol is not at all necessary for our metabolism, it is a drug, a social drug that is all. With extra taxes in the Western countries, other form of tax income in emerging and developing countries, the industry, the government and the black market people are the one who benefit out of this. The extreme taxes for the alcoholic beverages are in the Scandinavian countries to avoid people to buy it, but there the consumption is extremely big because of their climate and the longest winter nights. If you do not like it, you are the luckiest one and it is damn cheap as well as very healthy for you and your whole family.

Do you drink, if yes, why?

I do drink now and then in my house or when we visit our friends or we go out to dinner parties, one or two glasses of dry red wine only, all the other alcoholic beverages I do not like. I have no problems to answer this question.

What is alcohol?

The particular alcohol present in our alcoholic beverages is ethanol which is normally called alcohol, the name of the whole group.

What are the effects if you take in small amounts?

Although alcohol is a depressant, small quantities make you happily relaxed, but in large quantities most of them lose their inhibitions completely and bring not only health problems to them but also many other problems to their families and the society.

Does it make you addict?

Although alcohol is legal, it is a strong drug in high amounts and makes one addict. In low amounts of consumption it is fun, but sometimes one has no control to stop the increasing amounts and thus the addiction. This addiction is in many countries recognized as a sickness and the addicts get the benefit of health insurance with all their rehabilitation and other programmes.

Is drinking alcohol harming my health now, or will it be harmful later in my life?

If you drink a safe and healthy amount, it is good for your health, but too much is harmful in your social as well as family life but also a big risk factor for your health. Hundreds of millions of people in our world irrespective of their social status and intelligence are alcoholics.

What is the safe pattern of drinking?

180 ml wine or 500 ml beer or one to two drinks for a man in a day and 150 ml wine or 300 ml beer or one drink for a woman, if she likes only and do not forget, social drinking does not mean that you must drink every day. Nowadays, alcohol free-beers are there which taste exactly like the normal beer, but it can contain up to 0.5% of alcohol that means it is also strictly prohibited to dry alcoholics and children.

You can drink red wine-water equally mixed like the French do or half beer and half Lemon juice, like the German drink as Alsterwasser. All these methods reduce the amount of alcohol in your beverages.

What are the side effects of alcohol?

Increased relaxation, sociability and reducing inhibitions are the initial effects. You feel well and want more and more to drink which leads to loss of control, dizziness, blurred vision, sickness and even unconsciousness. The worst problem comes in the next morning, the hangovers. Alcohol slows reaction times, so driving, bicycling and operating machinery may be dangerous. Your rational thinking is gone and you may take risky decisions. Domestic violence and other crimes are the social problems and the loss of inhibitions makes you aggressive, the result is problems with wife and children. Your inhibition to sexual violence is also mostly lost.

What are the health effects of alcohol?

Alcohol in low amounts can reduce the blood pressure because of the dilation of blood vessels, but the good effect turns negative if you drink more.

Increased weight, more alcohol intake and almost no physical activity increases the weight and the problems connected to it, high blood pressure, may be diabetes also.

Memory loss occurs after consumption of large amount and long term use can cause heart diseases, stomach cancer and liver damage.

Alcohol reduces the sensitivity to pain and it causes dehydration and taking it with ecstasy is very dangerous to health.

Is alcohol in cold winter useful or bad for our health?

The dilated vessels from alcohol consumption are near to the skin surface and the body loses heat to the environment. Do not give alcohol to warm up, one will feel warm but the body cools down actually. That means warm winter cloths are necessary to protect your whole body.

Alcohol with other drugs, is it dangerous?

Yes, alcohol with other drugs which are depressants like heroin, valium will increase the potential of each drug, thus drastically increasing the cumulative adverse effects. Alcohol and flunitrazepam (Rohypnol) is deadly as well as a date-rape combination.

Alcohol with Paracetamol spoils the liver and tens of lakhs are dying every year with this combination.

Alcohol consumption and driving, what is your opinion?

If you take alcohol, do not drive your car, it is dangerous not only for you but also for others. Whatever and how much you drink, per hour only 0.1 per mille will be excreted and here all are same, man, woman, young, old, white, black, brown or yellow races. Our reaction time is normally much higher, after alcohol consumption even if you have a low level of 0.30 per mille in your blood, your reaction time is affected drastically and accidents from your car could be considered as 100% your mistake in the court of law and you have to pay the victims life-long.

Many countries have 0.00 per mille for driving and others have 0.50 per mille limit, this to reach a glass of wine or beer or 1 or 2 drinks enough. Here there is no superman or superwoman and all the other theories and stories are not true.

Do not forget, as a host you have got the responsibility if you serve alcoholic beverages in your parties, in home or in the hotels, that you should not allow the person to drive his car to go to his house, if necessary, you have to snatch his car keys and send him in a taxi to his house. Otherwise, his problem, if there is an accident, may become also partly a problem of yours.

Are women become more quickly drunk than men?

Yes, it is; they absorb the alcohol quickly and alcohol reaches also swiftly to their brain and it is better to be very careful. It is also excreted slowly than men. Never drink the amount of a man. You must know your limit just above your individual lower level, this amount, with this enjoyment, is the social drinking. Above that, you blame yourself and spoil your health and wealth also.

Does pregnant woman drink alcohol?

It is better if she does not drink. But in Western countries some regular user could not stop it, it is better to drink 100 ml wine or 200 ml beer but nothing more. It is important to note that the total alcohol amount should be only within the range of 8 to 12 grams of pure alcohol, one or two times a week, more than that spoil the health of the child. I would like to say that in Western countries there are women who stop drinking immediately if they know they are pregnant. In India where social drinking in women is so low alcohol must be avoided during pregnancy and breastfeeding.

Young men boast, consumption of more alcohol shows their strength, is it correct?

I can only laugh, if you remember your earlier questions and my answers, you know that and I think this remark came after alcohol consumption, thereby with the loss of inhibition. I have seen so many people and their fates are so bad, I do not even wish my best enemy to suffer like this. Most of these persons have inferiority complex which they would like to hide with their habits, like drinking, abusing drugs or also driving costly cars. There are enough persons who utilize this to enjoy their life at others cost, but we should not forget; sometimes we have to pay for this joy heavily like diseases or sexual assault.

Are there any recommended amounts of intake for men and women?

Yes, there are some, but each individual must take this only as a recommended amount and find out the correct amount by himself. One to two units for women and two to three units for men a day is the recommended one for social drinking and it is not a must everyday. Three to four days in a week for men and two to three days for the women a week are the maximum and the rest days are alcohol free.

Almost all the good beer companies offer alcohol free beers, this taste exactly like the original beer, the alcohol content of these alcohol free-beers must be below 0.5% and you can consume this without any problem. There are alcohol free wines and champagne and this is good to drink, as you see there are possibilities to enjoy life, without alcohol.

What is a unit which in mostly written in connection with alcohol drinks?

One unit is 8 grams of pure alcohol, is one small glass of wine or a small glass of beer or one small glass of champagne or approximately 20 ml of other liquors which have 36% to 42% of alcohol. I give you as eight grams so that you could calculate exactly how much you can take and it is simple because every bottle contains the volume in % on the label.

What is Alco-pops?

Alco pops are alcoholic drinks, very sweet with lot of sugar; the alcohol content is 8.5%, which are also in all possible colours to attract the youth.
