Some people think that drinking is due to alcoholism. The latest American research published in Britain shows that beer addiction may have nothing to do with alcohol, and the taste of beer itself is pleasant and addictive. In order to exclude alcohol, subjects can only drink15ml or a spoonful of beer every15min. The results showed that the dopamine released by the brain of beer drinkers was significantly higher than that of other groups, and the desire of beer drinkers to continue drinking was also significantly higher than that of other groups. DayStevens, a professor of psychology in Britain, thinks this study proves that the taste of drinks can affect the brain. Studies have shown that it is appropriate to drink about 120 ml of beer every day, and more than three cups will increase the risk of liver damage, osteoporosis and other diseases.

Someone really went to prove this proposition. British and Dutch researchers conducted an experiment. They found 50 students studying at Maastricht University in the Netherlands on the German border. Their mother tongue is German, but because they want to master Dutch, they passed the Dutch proficiency test and have basic communication and reading skills. Anyone who asks for a 2-minute casual conversation with the local Dutch delegation will be recorded. The only variable is water or wine, not much. According to the weight, a man who is about 150 kg (about 135 kg) drinks a pint of beer, which may be about a bottle of Qingdao Shunsheng. After the speech, all participants were asked to comment on their conversation, mainly on their fluency. I feel that there is no difference in my usual grades. But everything was recorded. Find a few Dutch natives and ask them to comment on the tester's results, not who drinks.

The final result shows that people who drink alcohol speak more fluently, especially their pronunciation is better, and the conclusions drawn from grammar and vocabulary are consistent. But FritzRenner, one of the authors of the paper, added: "The alcohol dose tested in the study is very low. After drinking too much, I can't even understand the words and I can't speak fluently. " The same is true of the study of the use of Thai by Americans. A small amount of alcohol helps to make pronunciation more standard and fluent. The team cooperated with FAU Computer Chemistry Center to analyze food ingredients through virtual screening method commonly used in pharmaceutical research, that is, computer simulation. Scientists initially set up a database of 65,438+03,000 molecules in food to find molecules that can interact with dopamine D2 receptors. Finally, they found 17 species and analyzed them in the laboratory.

Among them, barley malt ning has the most satisfactory effect, which exists in barley malt and beer. Beer contains ingredients that can activate dopamine D2 receptor, which surprised researchers. Maltine can stimulate dopamine D2 receptor like dopamine, but it uses different signaling pathways. Maltine can only stimulate receptors through G protein, so it has a more lasting effect on the brain response center. The team is currently further studying whether the content of barley alkali in beer will have a greater impact on the brain response center.
