00:00Now it's Vermont's holiday season, and the Health Department is reminding us of the effects of alcohol on our health.

00:09Now, the celebration is on the left and right.

00:12This is Noel Talacay's story.

00:16One of the things RJ is waiting for now in Vermont is the party on the left and right,

00:22also because of the non-alcoholic drinks.

00:24It's really the number one, I drink it right away.

00:27Right away?

00:28When I have vacations like this.

00:29But health advocates are reminding the public to be careful when drinking alcohol

00:35because it can lead to diseases,

00:39where liver is the most affected.

00:43The kind of alcohol that we drink is processed in the liver.

00:50If the liver is overworked,

00:55it changes its appearance,

00:58the contents of our liver change,

01:02it changes, it becomes a fatty liver, it gets fibrosis, right?

01:05Alcohol also destroys our heart.

01:09The long-term effects of drinking alcohol

01:12are also harmful to our veins, blood vessels, and heart.

01:18RJ said that this is not everyday,

01:22he only drinks alcohol once a week.

01:26Once a week.

01:27I don't have a job the next day.

01:30But the health department insisted that it's not true to drink moderately

01:35because drinking alcohol is not on a safe level.

01:39So I think that culture that it's only once,

01:46sometimes it also leads to a lack of awareness that it's harmful

01:52and it has risks.

01:54Aside from the harmful effects on the health of the 10 Filipinos

01:58who die every day from road accidents,

02:02three of them drank alcohol.

02:04According to the Global Burden of Disease Study

02:07led by the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation,

02:12the medical society, youth, and civic society groups

02:17called for Alcohol Harms Awareness Month in September.

02:22The Ministry of Health and Welfare is also urging

02:26to make this a law and Alcohol Harms Awareness Month in September.

02:31Especially this month, the holiday season in the country

02:36where drinks are more frequent.

02:39By priming our mindset and the community

02:43for us to be aware already of the upcoming celebrations,

02:48it allows us to make an informed decision already

02:51on how to regulate or even prohibit ourselves

02:55from engaging in such harmful acts.

03:00This is supported by the Ministry of Health and Welfare

03:03because it is in line with their advocacy

03:07that in the new Philippines, every life is important.

03:09The health advocates hope that this law will be passed.

03:14Noel Talacay for Pambasang TV in the new Philippines.
