Young men have a total of nearly 10,000 pounds of alcohol and metabolic brain diseases. They almost lost their lives

"I started drinking at the age of 9 and now 35 years old. I was afraid of drinking nearly 10,000 catties of liquor. I never encountered opponents on the wine field." Mr. Zhang (pseudonym), who lives in Yueyang, often hangs this sentence, but he never thought that he had not encountered his opponent who was drinking, but was defeated by the "wine" itself.

A few days ago, we learned from the Second People's Hospital of Hunan Province that Mr. Zhang almost lost his life due to drinking alcohol.

As early as 20 years old, Mr. Zhang was diagnosed with diabetes because of drinking. Even so, he still drinks more than one pound every day.

On July 16th, he lifted his beloved wine glass again after get off work. After a few cups, he had uncomfortable and fainted to the ground.

Seeing that the family died 120, it was sent to the Emergency Department of the Second People's Hospital of Hunan Province for diagnosis and treatment.

Mr. Zhang was then further inspected and treated due to the critical condition of illness.

After a series of inspections such as lumbar puncture, CT, and MRI, Mr. Zhang was finally diagnosed with metabolic brain disease.

What is metabolic brain disease? Why does Mr. Zhang, who is in the middle of the adult, suffers from metabolic brain disease? How to prevent metabolic encephalopathy in daily life?

Yang Yongkang, deputy director of the Department of Critical Medicine of the Second People's Hospital of Hunan Province, introduced that metabolic encephalopathy refers to a general term for the changes in biochemical metabolism in the body to cause changes in the environmental changes in the brain tissue and lead to brain dysfunction.

Popularly speaking, the brain dysfunction caused by changes in the body's internal metabolism, and metabolic encephalopathy has a variety of types of diseases. The most common of which is hepatic encephalopathy, pulmonary encephalopathy, hypoglycemia, etc.

And Mr. Zhang's long -term drinking caused liver function attenuation, which caused dysfunction of the central nervous system, which eventually led to the occurrence of metabolic encephalopathy.

If this type of disease is not treated in time as the body's toxins gradually increase, the internal environment of the body will be worse, and the damage to the brain function will be more serious. As a result, the nerve symptoms will become more and more serious, and it will directly endanger life.

After treatment, Mr. Zhang's condition was significantly improved, and he gradually sober from a coma. On July 28, Mr. Zhang turned back to the general ward to continue treatment.

"Metabolic encephalopathy is a metabolic disease caused by basic diseases, and its prevention is to control chronic diseases such as diabetes." Do not drink a lot of alcohol for patients like Mr. Zhang.

Drinking a large amount of alcohol will not only directly lead to increased blood sugar, but also cause fatty liver, alcoholic liver and liver damage, thereby aggravating insulin resistance and unfavorable control of blood sugar.

At the same time, a large amount of alcohol for a long time can increase the peripheral neuropathy of diabetes, and patients often show irreversible nerve damage.

Therefore, patients with diabetes should not drink alcohol, even if they drink alcohol; at the same time, the following points should be achieved in daily life:

The first is to maintain good health habits.

The human body's metabolic system is performed cyclical according to time, and bad work and rest habits such as staying up late may cause dysfunction of the metabolic system, thereby forming basic diseases such as "three highs".

The second is proper physical exercise.

Proper physical exercise can not only secrete dopamine pleasant body and mind, but also enhance the body's resistance and make the body stronger.

However, physical exercise should pay attention to scientificity, and choose the suitable physical exercise to better strengthen the body and prevent diseases.

The third is a regular diet and a reasonable diet.

The regularity of the diet can ensure the normal operation of the physical function.

At the same time, when the diet is matched, it should be scientifically and reasonable to ensure the intake of various nutrients needed by the body.

Associate Professor Yang Yongkang reminded that metabolic encephalopathy has been lurking around, and prevention must always be greater than treatment. It is recommended that the general public should develop good living habits to prevent the occurrence of metabolic encephalopathy.
