Can children drink sweet wine?

There are various types of wine, including red wine, beer, foreign liquor and sweet wine. Some families like to drink very much. If children in the family often see adults drinking, they will learn to drink like adults. However, children are not allowed to drink alcohol. Even if it is sweet wine, although the alcohol content is not high, there is a certain amount of alcohol in it that can harm children's bodies and damage their livers and stomachs. Therefore, you must set a good example for your children and not drink alcohol.

Sweet wine is rich in nutrients, but it contains a certain amount of alcohol, which can easily irritate a child's body. Although it is a small amount of alcohol, the baby's stomach, liver and other body parts are not fully developed. Consumption will still damage the liver, gastrointestinal mucosa, etc. Overdose may even cause coma and other serious illnesses. The younger the child, the greater the harm will be if he drinks alcohol. A two-year-old baby is still very young, and drinking alcohol may even affect his brain development. Therefore, two-year-old babies should be careful when drinking sweet wine.

Sweet wine itself has a low alcohol content. If it is diluted several times and then cooked and evaporated, the impact on the baby will be greatly reduced. Therefore, if parents want to feed their babies some sweet wine, it is best to add water and then cook it.

1. It is not conducive to digestion and damages the stomach and intestines. The baby's stomach and intestines are not fully developed. Sweet wine is mainly made of glutinous rice, which is not conducive to digestion. It also contains alcohol. Even a small amount of alcohol can harm the baby's gastrointestinal mucosa. Because the gastrointestinal mucosa of such a large baby is not very well developed, and the digestive enzymes in the gastrointestinal tract are relatively simple, they cannot digest sweet wine well. 2. Damage to the liver: The liver of a two-year-old baby is not yet fully developed, and the liver's detoxification ability is relatively poor. Drinking alcohol may damage the liver. 3. Impact on brain development. Sweet wine contains alcohol, which has serious damaging effects on the developing brain. A research team led by Dr. Olney of the University of Washington School of Medicine found that during the development of the brain, alcohol causes widespread neuronal apoptosis in the brain through the dual mechanisms of blocking NMDA receptors and overactivating GABA receptors. The most serious damage begins six months after fertilization and continues for several years after birth.
