Laba Festival, the New Year is here!
In the blink of an eye, this year’s Laba Festival is coming, and the Spring Festival is not far away. It is said that people nowadays are busy with work and the New Year becomes less and less festive. Do you agree?
Those who enjoy celebrating the New Year the most are the elderly and children. In particular, some elderly people pay great attention to traditional festivals and like to celebrate with a drink during festivals.
But there has always been a lot of debate about whether the elderly should drink. To this end, the author visited an old winemaker. He said that as long as the elderly can adhere to the following three principles of not drinking, drinking moderately can actually have many benefits. Let’s take a look.
1: Don’t drink blended wine
Everyone thinks that blended wine is a hodgepodge of various wines mixed together. In fact, since the implementation of the new national standard for liquor in June this year, the blended wine we used to call is also called blended wine.
This kind of wine is mainly made by liquid method and solid-liquid method. They are not pure grain wines, and their formulas are clearly marked with additives such as edible alcohol and flavors . It is easy to make your head feel uncomfortable if you drink it regularly.
If you want to avoid this kind of wine, you must first buy it through regular channels, and secondly check its ingredient list. As long as you find the additives mentioned above, you will definitely not buy it.
2: Do not drink medicated wine on the market randomly
Elderly people have the habit of drinking medicated wine in winter. It is true that there are many kinds of medicated wine on the market.
From the earliest soaked ginseng and wolfberry, to later scorpions and snakes, they look fancy, but are actually very dangerous. Because these wines don’t have any product labels and are prepared by the store owner himself, their safety is very uncertain.
Not only is the quality of the wine not guaranteed, even the medicinal materials inside are risky. Most people don't know their temperament and functions. They mix them randomly and never drink them. Moreover, some ginseng looks very big, but in fact it is artificially grown, worthless and ineffective.
3: Don’t drink “excessive” alcohol.
When drinking alcohol, you must first not exceed your own drinking capacity.
People who drink frequently know that feels the best when you are a little drunk. lies down after drinking and feels very comfortable even if you are not tired. Therefore, when drinking daily, never get drunk beyond your drinking capacity.
Secondly, it is the daily recommended amount of alcohol consumption: no more than 2 ounces of alcohol per day.
When the elderly drink alcohol in winter, they must strictly control the amount. They can also reduce the amount as appropriate according to their own feelings. Everything should be done as long as they feel comfortable.
Having said that, don’t drink, so what kind of wine should the elderly drink in winter?
① Pure grain wine with only water and grain in the ingredient list;
② High-quality wine with excellent quality.
If you don’t know what wine to drink and don’t have time to choose, it doesn’t matter. You can take a look at the following two Chunliang Niang wines. They are both good and friendly wines with both quality and cost-effectiveness.
