How alcohol affects the brain
Once I had to watch the rare but unfortunate occasion, the same phenomenon in the structure of the brain of a man who developed into a paroxysm of alcoholic excitement, at the wheel of a wagon train was decapitated and its brain from the skull immediately the accident. The brain itself, entire, in front of me three minutes after death. It exudes the odor of spirit most distinctly, and the membranes and vascular structures were extremely minutes. It seemed as if it had injected recently with cinnabar. The brain's white matter, with red spots, which can hardly be distinguished, if he had cut for a natural whiteness, and the pia mater, or internal membrane, which punctured the brain, vascular, resembled a delicate web of coagulated red blood, so close, their ships were filled with blood.
I should add that this condition extended through both the larger and smaller brain, the brain and cerebellum, but was not so in the spinal cord or labeled from the spinal cord.
The spinal cord and nerves.
The effect of alcohol continued beyond the first stage will affect the function of the spinal cord. Through this part of the nervous system, we are accustomed, in health, to carry out acts of mechanical equipment, proceed systematically even when we think or talk about other issues. Thus, a skilled worker his mechanical work perfectly on, his mind is bent on a different theme, and therefore carry all the different acts in a purely automatic, without calling the help of the higher centers with the exception of slightly more than the ordinary one demand for their services, they think, before you act. In alcohol, as are the centers of the spine affected, stop, these pure automatic acts to correct their business. That the hand may reach any object, or planting the foot properly, must call the higher intellectual center for the procedure safer. Below is a quick power in the poor coordination of muscle movements. The nervous system has lost control over some of the muscles and the nerve impulse is weakened more or less. The muscles of the lower lip in men is usually not until the muscles of the lower extremities, and it is remarkable that the extensor muscles give way before the flexors. The muscles themselves, by this time, do not react well to power, but weaker than natural for nervous stimulation, but also under the depressing influence of the paralyzing agent, their structure temporarily insane, and its contraction energy savings.
This change in the role of animals in the alcohol, marks the second stage of his actions. In young subjects, there now, usually, vomiting with faintness, followed by gradual relief from the burden of the poison.
Impact on the centers of the brain.
----------------------------
The alcoholic spirit carried out in an even greater extent, the brain centers of the brain or be influenced, but are reduced in power and control effects and the study is lost. Since these centers are not balanced and in the chaos that is the rational part of human nature to be an emotional, passionate or so before the organically. The reason is down, or is fooling with duty, and all mere animal instincts and feelings are cruelly exposed. The coward is cowardly, boastful braggart who ruthlessly cruel and false liar, the carnal more degraded. "In vino veritas' expresses, in fact to physiological accuracy, the actual state. The reason, emotions, instincts, are in a state of carnival, and slightly chaotic.
Finally, the effect of alcohol is still expanding, the higher brain centers are dominated by the senses are clouded, the voluntary muscular prostration is perfected, sensibility is lost, and the body is a single record, died for all, but fourth is that the sole of his life is. The heart remains faithful to his duty, and if only life, the power of breathing feeds. And so stimulate the circulation and respiration, in the otherwise inert mass, keeps the mass in the core domain of life until the poison begins to disappear, and the nerve centers again. Pleased with the drunks, which is usually not the brain until the heart that neither the power nor the sense of continuing the process of destruction up to the act of the death of his circulation. Therefore, live to die another day.
