During Chinese New Year and gatherings with friends, people tend to drink some alcohol to entertain themselves, but pregnant women should never drink alcohol as it may harm the health of the fetus. In fact, children are also not allowed to drink alcohol, even low alcohol beer is not allowed. So, what are the hazards of drinking beer for a two-year-old child?
If a two-year-old child drinks beer, it can hinder their physical development. If children in their developmental stage are given alcohol, it can affect their normal physical development and also easily lead to some diseases. At the age of two, children are in the developmental stage and their organs are still very delicate, unable to withstand the stimulation of alcohol.
If a two-year-old child is given beer, it can easily lead to diseases such as gastritis, fatty liver, and even cirrhosis. Many people believe that cirrhosis is a disease that affects adults, but it can also occur during childhood. After alcohol enters the child's body, less than 10% can be excreted through urine, and the remaining alcohol must be metabolized through the liver. However, the liver of young children has not yet matured, so drinking alcohol can increase the burden on the liver, which may evolve into cirrhosis over time.
Drinking beer to a two-year-old child not only lowers their immunity but also damages their physical health. And it can also affect the development of the brain, and even lead to a decrease in children's intelligence, so parents must not give their children alcohol.
