A THANK YOU FOR BEING HERE, DO
APPRECIATE IT.
SO THE HOLIDAYS SHOULD BE A
HAPPY TIME.
IT IS A TIME WHERE WE ALL GET
TOGETHER AND MAYBE DRINK MORE
THAN WE NORMALLY WOULD BECAUSE
THERE ARE SOME PEOPLE WHO DRINK
OCCASIONALLY AND HAVE TO BE
CAREFUL AND THEBRINK INK BE
DRINKING IS.
>>> ALCOHOL HAS A LOT OF
NEGATIVE CONSEQUENCES IF DONE IN
EXCESS FOR CHRONIC PERIODS.
IT CAN CONTRIBUTE TO
HYPERTENSION THAT CAN LEAD TO
STROKE.
CONTRIBUTE TO HEART FAILURE,
ARRITH MEA, BUT PEOPLE WHO DON'T
DRINK THAT MUCH WE HAVE TO WORRY
ABOUTIGE E INK BE DRINKING.
>> THERE ARE CERTAIN AGE-GROUPS
IN PARTICULAR THAT MAY BE EITHER
DO THIS KNOWINGLY BECAUSE
THEY'RE, YOU KNOW, THEY'VE COME
BACK FOR THE HOLIDAYS AND SEEING
FRIENDS THEY HAVEN'T SEEN IN A
LONG TIME SO THEY GO OUT OR
MAYBE THEY'RE SOCIALLY DRINKING
AND DON'T REALIZE HOW MUCH
THEY'RE FILLING THE GLASS.
>>> BINGE DRINK SEG GREATER THAN
FOUR DRINKS IN A TWO-HOUR PERIOD
FOR A WOMAN FOR FIVE FOR A MAN.
WELL ABOVE THE RECOMMENDED LIMIT
OF ONE OR TWO IN A DAY AT
MAXIMUM.
AND, IT WILL GET THE BLOOD
ALCOHOL CONTENT TO ABOUT ONE
GRAM MANY EACH LITER -- AND WHEN
BLOOD ALCOHOL GETS TO THAT LEVEL
THERE ARE NEGATIVE CONSEQUENCES
WE FOUND M. I. CAN OCCUR, 70%
MORE THAN PERIODS WITHOUT
ALCOHOL IN TESTIMO J. M. I.?

>>> HOLIDAY HEART A RAPID
HEARTBEAT, FEEL LIKE THEY'RE
HAVING A HEART ATTACK AND CAN GO
TO AN ARRHYTHMIA AND THEY CAN
FEEL REALLY BADLY.
AND THEY'RE ARRHYTHMIA HAS A
REVERSIBLE CAUSE WHICH IS THE
DRINKING THEY WERE DOING.
>> Jennifer: YOU DON'T WANT TO
ENDS UP IN THE EMERGENCY ROOM
AND THEY HAVE TO SHOCK YOUR
HEART BACK TO THE RIGHT RHYTHM
IF IT PERSISTS.
>> IT ABSOLUTELY CAN HAPPEN.
YOU MENTIONED WHO DOES THIS.
YOU'RE SURPRISED WHO DOES BINGE
DRINKING.
BUT 70% OF BINGE E BIG DRINKS IS
DONE BY PEOPLE OVER 26.
AND SENIOR CITIZENS OR PEOPL
OVER 65 ARE PARTICULARLY HIGH
RISK GROUP WHO DO A LOT OF B
DRINKING ESPECIALLY THE MEN IN
THAT GROUP BUT WOMEN AS WELL.
>> Jennifer: WEEP THAT IN MIND
IF YOU HAVE GRANDMA A GRANDPA
OVER.
DOES IT MATTER WHAT IT IS,
BLOIRK OR OR WINE?
>>> ONE ALCOHOL SERVING WOW FOUR
OUNCES OF WINE, 1 OUNCE OF
SPIRIT, O12-OUNCE CAN OF BEER.
IT IS EASIER TO STICK TO BEER OR
WINE, I HAD A PATIENT RECENTLY
WHO SAID THAT THEY ONLY HAD TWO
DRINKS A DAY AND UNTIL HE FOUND
OUT THERE WERE 7-OUNCES OF
ALCOHOL PER DRINK.
YOU HAVE TO WATCH OUT FOR THAT
AND THE ANTIOXIDANTS HAVE BEEN
APPOINTED TO AS A POSSIBLE
EVALUATED HA BENEFIT IN LOW
LOCALS.
>> Jennifer: I WATCHED THIS
WITH MY DAD AND IT IS JUST
BECAUSE HE JUST, I THINK DOESN'T
REALIZE.

NOT PUTTING A LOT OF WATER IN,
IT IS STILL MORE THAN YOUR
CARDIOLOGIST TELLS YOU'RE
SUPPOSED TO HAVEF I WAS
LECTURING HIM ABOUT THAT THE
OTHER DAY DRINK IN MOD RARES AND
LIMIT FOOD INTAKE.
