Dry white wine can be called relatively safe in comparison with other alcoholic drinks on the New Year’s table. One or two glasses diluted with water are practically safe for health, Yevgeny Brun, chief freelance psychiatrist-narcologist of the Russian Ministry of Health, said on December 31.
“Alcohol is harmful in itself, it is poison. With great care we can say that dry white wine is relatively safe. One or two glasses for a holiday, diluted in half with water, with sufficient physical activity, will not cause serious harm to the health of an adult, “the Prime agency quoted him as saying.
Brune also noted that raising the degree and combining alcohol with carbonated drinks and sweets are the most harmful actions at a festive banquet.
“Bubbles increase absorption and accelerate intoxication, while sugar and alcohol compete in metabolism, and the half-life products will remain in the body,” the doctor explained.
Brune named mashed potatoes as the best snack when drinking alcoholic beverages, which works as an absorbent and slows down the absorption of alcohol into the blood.
A colleague of the narcologist, nutritionist Natalya Kruglova, recalled the most harmful snacks with alcohol. According to her, these are foods that contain saturated fat, especially sausages.
