健けん康こうミニレッスン

〜飲いん酒しゅ〜

「酒さけにのまれる」という言こと葉ばがありますが、これは酒さけのせいで自じ分ぶん自じ身しんを管かん理りできなくなることです。これでは毎まい日にちの生せい活かつに悪わるい影えい響きょうを与あたえてしまいます。「酒さけにのまれない」ための酒さけの飲のみ方かたを考かんがえてみましょう。

酒さけは、上じょう手ずに飲のめば、心こころも体からだも楽らくになって楽たのしい時じ間かんが過すごせるものでもあります。酒さけにのまれず、楽たのしいときを過すごすための飲のみ方かたを紹しょう介かいします。まず、笑わらいながら家か族ぞくや友ゆう人じんと楽たのしく飲のむ。これでストレス（注4）がなくなります。そして、何なにかを食たべながら飲のむ。酒さけだけを飲のむのは胃いに悪わるいです。おいしい料りょう理りと一緒いっしょなら、ますますいいでしょう。それから、ゆっくり飲のむ。飲のむスピードが速はやいと、体からだの調ちょう子しを悪わるくします。「ゆっくり食たべ、笑わらって」酒さけを楽たのしむ。これが、酒さけと上じょう手ずに付つき合あう方ほう法ほうです。
