According to research in a new book published this month in the U.S. on Amazon.com [ https://amzn.to/3zabwxP] alcohol is not the depressant the medical profession claim it is.
“Everyone’s been told they were mad to think alcohol made them feel good because it was a depressant when in fact everyone was right all along: alcohol does give you pleasure.” Mark Holmes. “Reseach shows that the stimulant effect rises as Blood Alcohol content increases, and as this begins to fall, it is immediately followed by a rising Sedative effect.”
Independent research validation:
“This biphasic effect of alcohol is central to the Differentiator Model (Newlin and Thomson, 1990), which purports that persons at risk for alcohol use disorders
experience heightened positive-like effects of alcohol during the rising phase of the blood alcohol curve (BAC) and reduced sedative-like effects during the declining
limb compared to their low-risk counterparts.”
