It should be said right away that any alcohol, regardless of dosage, is unhealthy. Despite this, vodka has become something of a cult drink. It quickly got into people's minds, so any holiday is accompanied by its drink. Is it good that the holiday celebration is not complete without burning water, or is it bad? Each one decides for himself.
But one thing can be said with confidence, if a large-scale event is planned, then it is worth knowing the measure of alcohol consumption, that is, the daily dose, of which the next morning will definitely not be bad. How much vodka can you drink a day so as not to harm your own health? Let's take a look at this problem.
What affects the daily dose?
I would like to say right away that there is no single (universal) dose. For each, it is calculated separately and directly depends on the person's sex, body weight, age, health, genetics. Let's consider each factor separately.
Human gender
The female and male body have many differences, despite the many similarities. Regardless of gender, many fragile women prefer to drink strong alcoholic beverages alongside brutal men. Forgetting that the doses for them should be completely different. If you take a man and a girl with the same body weight, the same age and health, the dose will still differ almost twice in favor of men.
Human weight
Comparing a frail man weighing 60 kilograms with a dry complexion to a healthy uncle, whose weight has long exceeded 100 kilograms, it is no wonder that the latter can drink much more. And here he is in weight, the bigger the person, the more he can drink.
Human age
Many have repeatedly heard the popular expression that young people forgive everything. While you are young and strong, you can hardly sleep, eat badly, drink a lot of alcohol. But youth is not equated with the strength of health. It has long been proven that a young body is weak. Although there really is a lot of energy in young people, their resistance to alcohol is far from the same as that of older people. It has been shown that the maximum amount of vodka can be consumed at the age of 30-35 years.
Health condition
Everything is clear here, if a person has poor health, for example, a diseased heart, intestines, kidneys, liver or other organs, then he will not be able to drink as much as a healthy opponent who drinks vodka. For patients, a priori, there is no concept of a safe dose of alcohol, since it is contraindicated for them. If something is bothering him, he should stop drinking strong alcoholic beverages.
Genetic predisposition
The last and decisive factor is genetics. There are people who, no matter how much they drink, will remain sober, they were simply created to drink alcohol, they do not suffer from a hangover syndrome, and the vodka itself hardly harms their body. But there are people who are genetically weak to consume alcoholic beverages. It is worth considering your own heritage when looking at your father and mother.
What is the daily dose?
One of the most authoritative organizations is the WHO (World Health Organization). The company's specialists assure that men cannot drink more than 28 servings a week, that is, about 4 servings a day, which is equivalent to 800 grams of vodka. A solid figure, right?
But the representatives of the beautiful half of humanity should reduce the daily dose by 8 times - no more than 100 grams per day. How true these data are, one can only guess, but they say that the WHO knows their business. Some doctors, for example, argue that the daily rate of vodka for women should be half the amount of drink consumed by men. Others say that drinking is generally undesirable. But the decision rests solely with those who like to use on vacation or just like that.
