Eating hot pot and drinking beer may make you happy but it can also make you sick!

In various regions of the country, when the weather turns cool, people like to eat hot pot around the table. At this time, many male friends like to drink some alcohol to have fun. However, medical experts point out that eating hot pot and drinking beer at the same time may bring many harms to the body.

1. Eating hot pot and drinking beer can increase uric acid

A lot of purine-rich meat and seafood are often put in hot pot. Many people like to drink a glass of cold beer after eating spicy hot pot to relieve body heat. Various meats and seafood contain high levels of purine, which produces uric acid after metabolism. Drinking beer at this time will accelerate the metabolism of purine in the body and increase the production of uric acid in the body. On the other hand, alcohol will increase lactic acid in the body and reduce the excretion of uric acid in the kidneys. The body does not have time to excrete uric acid normally. Uric acid accumulates too much in the body and uric acid will crystallize and precipitate in the joints, causing gout.

2. Eating hot pot and drinking alcohol can easily lead to prostate disease

Experts explain that winter is the peak season for prostate diseases, and 60% of prostate disease patients experience worsening or recurrent symptoms in winter. This is related to winter sex, low ambient temperature, lack of attention to local warmth, and eating habits. As the weather gets colder, drinking beer and eating hot pot to resist the cold is a dietary habit of many urbanites. Many people don't know that drinking alcohol can cause prostate congestion, and a large amount of fried, hot, and spicy foods in hot pot will make the symptoms more severe.

Men's experts said that many patients have prostate complications due to their habitual drinking and eating hot pot after winter. In winter, due to the temperature, the condition of many prostate patients will be aggravated. This is because at low temperatures, the excitability of the prostate sympathetic nerves will be significantly enhanced, causing the prostate gland to contract, resulting in chronic congestion, aggravating the accumulation of prostate fluid, and leading to prostate disease attacks.

3. Eating hot pot and drinking white wine hurts your stomach

In the cold winter, some people like spicy hot pot. It is not enjoyable if it is not spicy. However, drinking hot pot soup that is too spicy and hot will stimulate the stomach and intestines to expand, causing excessive congestion of the digestive tract and damaging the gastrointestinal mucosa. If you already have gastritis or gastric ulcer, it will aggravate the condition. In this case, drinking strong liquor, the high concentration of alcohol in it will destroy the mucus protective layer on the surface of the stomach and damage the protein of the stomach wall, which is like burning the stomach. In addition, people with stomatitis, chronic pharyngitis, ulcer and chronic pancreatitis, cholecystitis and those who have undergone upper abdominal surgery are not suitable for eating hot pot. Eating boiling food continuously will make the condition worse. Clinically, there are also common cases of gastrointestinal discomfort, acute pancreatitis and even gastric bleeding caused by eating hot pot and drinking white wine at the same time.
