Alcohol consumption
Alcohol consequences
The reading selection and the professor discussed the effects of alcohol consumption. While the passage demonstrates the various disadvantages alcohol may cause, the lecture disagrees stating that moderate alcohol can have lots of benefits. Both reading and listening show these three main points: wight alterations, health problems and social skills.
According to the text, alcohol has an enormous amount of calories and stimulates the appetite, making the drinker gain weight. However, the lecturer argues that many studies demonstrate that moderate drinking increases metabolism, reducing body fat.
The author of the passage mentions that alcohol is responsible of many health issues like heart attacks and in pregnant women it can lead to miscarriage. Nevertheless, the lecture shows how alcohol can actually increase life span and prevent a series of diseases.
As the text states, alcohol increases violence and aggression, damaging brain functions. On the other hand, the listening believes that moderate drinkers see themselves as more social people.
Generally speaking, although the reading and the lecture both are about how alcohol affects people, the three main points made in the passage are effectively challenged by the lecturer, supporting his point of view with various studies. Now that you have been presented with all the facts you can make your own conclusion.
