Blow to the liver

  Consumption of alcohol during the holidays increases dramatically. Going through a tortuous path through the body, alcohol hurts all the vital organs.

Belly
Once you have drained the glass,   alcohol   It begins to be absorbed in the gastrointestinal tract. Its cleavage engaged digestive enzymes - after working the blood enters the lower 20% alcohol.

Intestines
The remaining 80% of alcohol absorbed upper layer of the small intestine and enter the bloodstream. Red mixed with the moisture of drink enters the capillaries and veins
  digestive tract, which deliver this "cocktail" to the liver.

Liver
The body has several excretory organs, and liver among them - the main. 300 billion of its cells are busy processed (in addition to all that we absorb through the skin and breathe in) our food and drink, separated by dangerous for the organism toxic substances and nutrients. While the liver is active, the body can be cleaned independently disposing of by-products.

The effects of alcohol   this authority can not be neutralized: liver recycles nearly 90% of what we drink. The popular belief that a hearty meal can become a barrier between alcohol and the liver - a myth. Our body converts just the right amount of fluid that goes into it, whether we eat or not.

Under the influence of ethyl alcohol, which contain a variety of alcoholic drinks In the liver can be formed a so-called hyaline alcohol - specific protein which is perceived by the immune system as a foreign substance. For this reason, excessive alcohol consumption often leads to nausea: in our body instinct of self-preservation, and it rejects the "stranger."

Alcohol itself, once the liver begins to be oxidized and converted to acetaldehyde, which is processed further, as long as the body do not form water and carbon dioxide.

When experts talk about the impact of alcohol on the liver, then, first of all, they have in mind is acetaldehyde. This product is toxic (up to 30 times more toxic than ethanol), namely it is a major cause of a hangover. This substance activates the activity of free radicals that disrupts the enzyme and inhibits the intracellular flow of bile. Furthermore acetaldehyde stimulates the formation of fatty acids which lead to fatty liver accumulate therein. Scoring the fat, the liver starts to run slower. And the more a drink, the harder it becomes to process it enters the body ethyl. Acetaldehyde, which is formed by its decay, accumulates in the liver and leads against her destructive "war". At the same time feel that the liver is not all right, you can not at once: it has no nerve endings, which is fed to the brain signals of distress.

Kidneys
That does not filter out the liver, lungs and kidneys output (which is kidney contains enzymes that break down alcohol into carbon dioxide and water), by-products are derived, mainly, during a visit to the toilet, partially - with the fumes in moments of breathing.

Heart

Actively work our liver makes water so alcohol   correct not only a snack, how much drink. Most alcoholic beverages have a diuretic effect, leaving the body dehydrated. By producing much needed moisture to the liver, internal organs begin to work with a vengeance. Especially with the large load falls on the heart, which falls much faster than before, to pump blood.

The next day, the water balance of the body is almost restored. However, experts recommend taking time out for 48 hours - during which time the immune system finally comes to its senses and will again actively liver to process the alcohol and flush toxins.
