Drinking alcohol in family functions is dangerous

It is not advisable to drink during family functions, marriages, festivals and public meetings. Consumption of alcohol is all right and accepted up to a certain extent while you are among friends or places especially allocated for consuming alcohol because you know what you are expected to do in such places. The drinking habit in functions is not good as it may create embarrassing scene some times, as we see such incidents often during public and family functions. Alcohol, if consumed within limit and in proper places is okay but not in family functions.

I know some people drink in family functions in the name of happiness or merry-making but they only try to find another chance to drink. Such people are habitual drinkers and keep finding an occasion to gulp down a few pegs whenever a possibility comes their way.

You know in marriages in particular sections, people drink hard alcohol drinks in marriage processions which otherwise is a happy way for sober people to go to bride’s place with lots of singing, dancing having fun all the way. But there are few people, who make it a point to drink few extra pegs in the name of celebration and then create funny scenes all through the function to make it embarrassing for both sides.  

Coffee and alcohol make it a dreaded combination

Coffee is another item commonly available in marriage functions along with other drinks, juices and soups, which most people consume before having snacks while reaching to bride’s place. Coffee makes it more dangerous to drink coffee after consuming alcohol as the combination of caffeine and alcohol makes big impact on brain which is also known as ‘Toxic Jock’ syndrome. People under combined effect of alcohol and caffeine misjudge their limits of consumption to over drink and ready to take extra risk.

Let’s look how the combination proves harmful

While Caffeine increases the energy level, blood pressure and heartbeats of a person but alcohol reduces activities and ability to work of our brain. Person under influence of combined effect of caffeine and alcohol does not slowdown due to increased level of energy, consumes more alcohol, which ultimately proves harmful. Younger persons who indulge in activities like dancing and other activities compared to aged people remain more active and do not feel the bad effects of excess alcohol temporarily but aftereffects of excess consuming show for next couple of days. Therefore, it’s not healthy to consume extra pegs in the name of functions and a combination of alcohol and caffeine is certainly unhealthy.
