關於喝酒有無數的傳聞，從怎樣哪些酒最容易讓人喝醉的建議、到如何避免宿醉的溫馨小貼士，再到如何購買葡萄酒和上酒的經驗法則。

There are countless urban legends about drinking, from supposed wisdom about what gets you drunk the quickest, to tips on how to avoid a hangover, to rules of thumb for how you should buy and serve a fine wine. Many of them, however, aren’t rooted in science or data. Here are 5 things you’ve heard about alcohol and drinking that aren’t actually true.

關於喝酒有無數的傳聞，從怎樣哪些酒最容易讓人喝醉的建議、到如何避免宿醉的溫馨小貼士，再到如何購買葡萄酒和上酒的經驗法則。然而，很多這類傳聞都沒有科學數據支撐的。這裡，小編列出瞭5條一直為大傢深信不疑的飲酒小常識，其實它們都是不正確的喔！

Myth 1: Hard Alcohol Will Get You Drunk Quicker.

謬見1：烈酒更容易醉人

Yes, hard liquor has a higher alcohol content than beer. But as long as you’re drinking them at the same speed, a shot of liquor in a mixer should give you the same buzz as a 12-ounce beer. Shots tend to get people more drunk because they take them more quickly than they would drink a beer or a glass of wine.

是的，烈酒的酒精濃度比啤酒更高。但是如果你以相同的速度喝完烈酒和啤酒，其實一小杯兌瞭飲料的烈酒和12盎司的啤酒是一樣的，都能讓你腦袋嗡嗡作響。喝小杯的烈酒之所以更容易讓人醉，因為小杯酒，和一瓶啤酒或者一杯紅酒比，喝起來更快，也就更容易醉人。

Myth 2: Everyone Gets Hungover.

謬見2：人人都會宿醉

Studies show that about 25 percent of people don’t get hangovers. Lucky folks! It’s possible that this is because they don’t drink as much as they think they’re drinking, or it could be because of some as yet unknown genetic quirk. One study of Australian twins found that genetics were responsible for 40 to 45 percent of the difference in hangover frequency between people.

研究表示，近百分之二十五的人並不會宿醉。多麼幸運的人！很可能是因為他們實際喝的酒並不如他們自己想象得多，又或者是他們體內有一些未知的遺傳基因。一對澳大利亞雙胞胎的研究表明，人與人之間的基因會使人們在宿醉頻率上有百分之四十至五十不等。

Myth 3: Beer Will Give You A Round Belly.

謬見3：喝啤酒會有啤酒肚

There isn’t anything more fattening about beer than any other alcohol. All alcohol is caloric and can lead to weight gain. The reason people associate a big gut with drinking too many brewskies might be because beer is consumed in larger quantities than liquor or wine.

沒有任何一種酒會比啤酒更容易增肥。所有酒都有熱量，都會導致增肥。之所以大多數人把大肚腩和喝啤酒聯系起來，原因可能是一般我們會喝很多啤酒，而烈酒和葡萄酒則不會喝很多。

Myth 4: Drinking Kills Brain Cells.

謬見4：飲酒會殺死腦細胞

Long-term hard drinking isn’t great for the brain, but alcohol doesn’t kill brain cells like your mother warned it did. It does, however, impair brain function over time. Drinking can damage the ends of neurons, making it more difficult for them to relay signals. But that’s not quite the same thing as destroying entire cells.

長期酗酒對大腦不好，但是並不是像你媽說的那樣，酒精會導致腦細胞死亡。但久而久之，飲酒會損害腦功能。飲酒會損害神經元末梢，會減慢神經元傳遞信號。但這和殺死整個腦細胞是完全兩個概念。

Myth 5: Sake Is A Rice Wine.

謬見5：日本清酒是一種米酒

You would be forgiven for thinking this, as sake is often sold as a rice wine. But in fact, it’s more like a rice beer. Wines are alcoholic beverages made from fermented grape juice, and some expand that definition to include any and all fruit. But the process to make sake, which includes milling the grains of rice and fermenting them for weeks, is more akin to the beer-making process.

你有這種誤解是很正常的，日本清酒一直作為米酒來賣。事實上，它更像是一種米啤酒。葡萄酒是由發酵的葡萄汁制成的酒精飲料，一些人也說其它水果釀制的酒也算葡萄酒（但不包括米）。日本清酒的制作過程包括，磨碎大米粒，再讓它們發酵幾周，這更像制作啤酒的過程。
