Search Results - Alcoholic drinks

Type in a word or phrase to search, you can also type in Article ID's separated by commas:

An alcoholic beverage is a drink containing ethanol, commonly known as alcohol, although in chemistry the definition of alcohol includes many other compounds. Alcoholic beverages are divided into three general classes beers, wines, and spirits.

Ethanol is only slightly toxic compared to other alcohols, but has significant psychoactive effects. A significant blood alcohol content may be considered legal drunkenness as it reduces attention and slows reaction speed. Alcoholic beverages can be addictive and the state of addiction to ethanol is known as alcoholism.

Drinks with a concentration of more than 50% ethanol by volume (100 US proof) are flammable liquids and easily ignited. Some exotic drinks gain their distinctive flavors through intentional ignition, such as the Flaming Dr Pepper. Spirits with a higher ethanol content can be ignited with ease by heating slightly, e.g. adding the spirit to a warmed shot glass.

In chemistry, alcohol is a general term for any organic compound in which a hydroxyl group (-OH) is bound to a carbon atom, which in turn may be bound to other carbon atoms and further hydrogens. Other alcohols such as propylene glycol and the sugar alcohols may appear in food or beverages regularly, but these alcohols do not make them "alcoholic". Methanol (one carbon), the propanols (three carbons giving two isomers), and the butanols (four carbons, four isomers) are all commonly found alcohols, and none of these three should ever be consumed in any form. Alcohols are toxicated into the corresponding aldehydes and then into the corresponding carboxylic acids. These metabolic products cause a poisoning and acidosis. In the case of other alcohols than ethanol, the aldehydes and carboxylic acids are poisonous and the acidosis can be lethal. In contrast, fatalities from ethanol are mainly found in extreme doses and related to induction of unconsciousness or chronic addiction (alcoholism).

1. Lose Weight - Be Careful About How Much Alcohol You Consume
November 18, 2008

The person who wants to lose weight is better off without alcohol. You've got to make up your own mind whether or not you should drink — and when and how much. It is surprising how many calories there are in an alcoholic drink. Alcoholic drinks are even higher in calories when mixed with soda or fruit juice. Alcoholic drinks are high in carbohydrates; contain no fat, very little protein, vitamins or any other nutrients — in fact, practically none in most cases. The calories in alcohol are metabolised first by the body, ahead of burning fat - which is not desirable if on a weight loss... (read more)

2. Seeing Double While Driving?
November 11, 2008

You can not help attend parties or events and not be served or offered alcoholic drinks. Unfortunately, unless you have not been assigned as the designated driver, you have no excuse whatsoever in accepting an alcoholic beverage because for one, alcohol is a controlled substance and at the same time a depressant that can literally numb your senses. Let us face it; there is never a valid reason to be under the influence of alcohol when you are behind the wheel and driving your drunken friends to their homes. With so many people having vehicular accidents right now, you can not risk getting c... (read more)

3. Health Insurance Rates Are Touching Sky High
November 06, 2008

You might be not agreeing with the answer of some specific queries, but the facts are facts. Health insurance prices are increasing only because of its clients. This is truth; people are the inviter of their own bad luck if you will. Very easily, people don’t look after their self & by doing that; they raise the value of health care rates very sky scraping. People do smoke, take alcoholic drinks, they are becoming adult (ok they can not do something about that) & they do not exercise. The obesity speed as a nation is terrible.

8. What Do You Understand About Alcohol Addiction?
September 29, 2008

There is a huge difference between alcohol addiction and the currently accepted standards for modern social drinking. In the area of social drinking, the person takes a drink or two at social occasions, like office parties, birthdays, the bowling buddies, and things of that nature. This type of person, as the name implies, drinks alcohol socially but their body does not demand alcohol intake on a daily basis in order to function. Alcohol addiction, on the other hand, is significantly different. Some say that this addiction is related to a person's life style, but others disagree with tha... (read more)

9. The Kind of Wine in the Bible
September 22, 2008

If there is no question as to what the Bible says about wine and drunkenness, it leaves you to wonder just what sort of wine this is. There is no doubt that it is alcoholic, though it was probably much less so than a strong drink we know today. However, the wine does appear to be of the highest vintage – bright in color and sparkling, with a smooth taste that made it easy to drink, similar to a Grenache perhaps. Mixed drinks are also mentioned in the Bible, though more as the second type of drink – which causes excitement, but is between the wine that is good to drink and the wine that ... (read more)

14. Excessive Alcoholic Beverages Can Have Serious Health Impact
June 25, 2008

The effects of alcohol can change quickly from the perfect buzz to violent vomiting and passing out. Alcoholic beverages suppress the amygdala (the fear-sensing portion of the brain), while simultaneously stimulating the reward centers, so it's no surprise that a few drinks feel pretty darn good. We're almost like super-beings, as we become more talkative, funnier, less inhibited and more outgoing. However, drowsiness and withdrawal begins to occur as alcohol is eliminated from the body, which causes the drinker to keep consuming to maintain the buzz. There comes a point where the ...

April 21, 2008

You may be tired of hearing it, but it is true that a healthy diet and good exercise are the keys to long term weight loss.
