Is eating while drinking good for you?
A group of researchers in New York proved that those who drink without eating are in greater danger of suffering from an oral cavity or gullet cancer than those who eat when they drink. In particular, the risk of contracting cancer of the oral cavity, the gullet or esophagus grew 60-85% and larynx cancer by about 25%. In addition to this, consumption of large quantities of alcohol raises the risk of diseases mentioned above even when drinking and eating at the same time.
The thing is that alcohol causes inflammatory changes in tissues of the digestive system, which in the long run could lead to dangerous tumors and other incurable maladies. The peculiarity is that foods can create a protective layer on the surface of the digestive system, protecting it from the influence of alcohol and removing alcohol from its surface.
The summarization would be the following advice that came down from practical recommendations of scientists: “for favourable outcome drink alcohol in small quantities and while you are eating your meal.”
