- Alcohol is created through fermentation and is a depressant that affects the central nervous system. It can impair coordination and concentration.
- Teens sometimes drink out of curiosity, to relax, fit in, or seem older. However, underage drinking is illegal and can negatively impact health, safety, and development.
- Drinking too much can cause intoxication, poisoning, and long-term health issues like cirrhosis or fetal alcohol syndrome. Factors like how fast one drinks and genetics affect individual reactions. Dependence and addiction are also risks, as is withdrawal without treatment.

Drinking alcohol in moderation is acceptable, but excessive or binge drinking can lead to serious health and social problems, especially for young people. Regular heavy drinking can cause both physical and psychological addiction over time. Physically, alcohol is toxic to the liver and other organs and can increase risks of various cancers and diseases. Pregnant women should avoid alcohol completely due to risks of fetal alcohol syndrome in the baby. Psychologically, long-term excessive drinking is linked to increased anxiety, depression, violence and suicide. Moderation is key - drinking responsibly in limited amounts is safer than uncontrolled binge drinking.

and drinking behavior.

Alcohol PowerPoint.ppt
Alcohol is classified as a depressant drug that slows down the body's systems. It changes a person's physical and emotional state by impairing coordination, judgment, and motor skills. Long term effects of alcohol include liver disease, brain damage, and fetal alcohol spectrum disorder. There are various support groups for alcoholics and those affected by alcoholism, such as Alcoholics Anonymous, Al-Anon, and Alateen. Mothers Against Drunk Driving and Students Against Destructive Decisions are two common advocacy groups fighting against drunk driving.
Alcohol ppt
Alcohol affects many parts of the body. It initially causes an energizing effect but is actually a depressant that slows the central nervous system. As more alcohol is consumed, it impairs judgment, motor skills, and can lead to intoxication or even loss of consciousness. The liver works to break down alcohol but drinking too much overwhelms this system. Long term heavy use can damage the liver and brain. Fetal alcohol syndrome may also result if a pregnant woman drinks.
High risk groups with alcohol
Continuous alcohol intoxication can lead to physical and psychological addiction. Heavy drinking over long periods of time can damage the brain, nervous system, and internal organs. Alcoholism persists even after long periods of abstinence and is associated with disrupted sleep patterns and increased rapid eye movement sleep. Alcohol dependence is generally characterized by an inability to control drinking and its associated health and social problems.

GASTROINTESTINAL INFECTIONS AND GASTRITIS
Osvaldo Bernardo Muchanga
Gastrointestinal Infections
GASTROINTESTINAL INFECTIONS result from the ingestion of pathogens that cause infections at the level of this tract, generally being transmitted by food, water and hands contaminated by microorganisms such as E. coli, Salmonella, Shigella, Vibrio cholerae, Campylobacter, Staphylococcus, Rotavirus among others that are generally contained in feces, thus configuring a FECAL-ORAL type of transmission.
Among the factors that lead to the occurrence of gastrointestinal infections are the hygienic and sanitary deficiencies that characterize our markets and other places where raw or cooked food is sold, poor environmental sanitation in communities, deficiencies in water treatment (or in the process of its plumbing), risky hygienic-sanitary habits (not washing hands after major and/or minor needs), among others.
These are generally consequences (signs and symptoms) resulting from gastrointestinal infections: diarrhea, vomiting, fever and malaise, among others.
The treatment consists of replacing lost liquids and electrolytes (drinking drinking water and other recommended liquids, including consumption of juicy fruits such as papayas, apples, pears, among others that contain water in their composition).
To prevent this, it is necessary to promote health education, improve the hygienic-sanitary conditions of markets and communities in general as a way of promoting, preserving and prolonging PUBLIC HEALTH.
Gastritis and Gastric Health
Gastric Health is one of the most relevant concerns in human health, with gastrointestinal infections being among the main illnesses that affect humans.
Among gastric problems, we have GASTRITIS AND GASTRIC ULCERS as the main public health problems. Gastritis and gastric ulcers normally result from inflammation and corrosion of the walls of the stomach (gastric mucosa) and are generally associated (caused) by the bacterium Helicobacter pylor, which, according to the literature, this bacterium settles on these walls (of the stomach) and starts to release urease that ends up altering the normal pH of the stomach (acid), which leads to inflammation and corrosion of the mucous membranes and consequent gastritis or ulcers, respectively.
In addition to bacterial infections, gastritis and gastric ulcers are associated with several factors, with emphasis on prolonged fasting, chemical substances including drugs, alcohol, foods with strong seasonings including chilli, which ends up causing inflammation of the stomach walls and/or corrosion. of the same, resulting in the appearance of wounds and consequent gastritis or ulcers, respectively.
Among patients with gastritis and/or ulcers, one of the dilemmas is associated with the foods to consume in order to minimize the sensation of pain and discomfort. NARCOTICS- POLICY AND PROCEDURES FOR ITS USE
