Alcohol -free Oktoberfest: Celebrating healthy with Dr. Autumn tips

alcohol consumption for the Oktoberfest era: health risks and social trends

Bad Bayersoien, September 13, 2024. With the approaching Oktoberfest, where millions of locals and tourists come together every year, the topic of alcohol also comes into focus. Dr. med. Reingard Herbst, chief physician of the Nescure® private clinic on the lake, warns of the health consequences of intoxicating drinking, which are relevant at both individual and social levels.

Health consequences of excessive alcohol consumption

Excessive alcohol consumption not only has short -term consequences such as falls and injuries, but can also lead to serious illnesses in the long run. These include fatty liver, cirrhosis of the liver and various cardiovascular diseases. Dr. Autumn emphasizes that low consumption can be harmful to health, which is proven by current studies. The German Society for Nutrition (DGE) has significantly revised the recommendations for alcohol consumption and recommends maximum alcohol enjoyment of 0.0 per thousand to avoid any health risks.

social responsibility and changed drinking habits

In society, alcohol is often associated with conviviality. However, this idea could be questioned. Studies show that alcohol consumption does not always lead to a positive experience. Dr. Autumn warns that many people not only perceive their own limits when drinking, but also that of others, which can lead to inappropriate behaviors and, in the worst case, to conflicts.

The rise of non -alcoholic alternatives

A pleasant trend, on the other hand, is the increase in non -alcoholic drinks. The production of non -alcoholic beer has more than doubled in the past ten years. More and more people recognize the advantages of non -alcoholic variants and opt for a healthier lifestyle, especially in social situations. The first non -alcoholic beer garden in Munich is an example of this development.

tips for moderate alcohol consumption

For those who do not want to completely do without alcohol during the Oktoberfest, there are some strategies for responsible interaction. This includes drinking non -alcoholic alternatives between alcoholic beverages, slow drinking and regular meal breaks. It is important to understand that the body is able to only reduce 0.1 per thousand for over an hour, which means that long celebrations have to be addressed carefully.
