Research Warns of Health Risks Associated With Drinking Alcohol on Airplanes
Research Warns of Health Risks , Associated With Drinking , Alcohol on Airplanes.
Fox News reports that travelers may want
to reconsider drinking on their next flight
before trying to get some mid-air sleep.
.
According to a new study published in
'Thorax,' consuming alcohol before sleeping
on a plane could result in lowered blood
oxygen levels and an increased heart rate.
Experts warn that the cabin of a plane
already has less oxygen in the air than
we normally breathe.
Alcohol and sleep
only exacerbate this problem.
Experts warn that the cabin of a plane
already has less oxygen in the air than
we normally breathe.
Alcohol and sleep
only exacerbate this problem.
The study, led by the Department of Sleep
and Human Factors Research at the German
Aerospace Center, found an increased
risk for people with preexisting conditions.
Passengers with cardiopulmonary
diseases have an increased risk
of aggravation of symptoms
due to the decreased cabin
pressure at cruising altitude,
which is amplified during sleep, Dr. Marc Siegel, clinical professor of medicine
at NYU Langone Medical Center, via Fox News.
Alcohol, which is often consumed
on board, has similar effects, but
hypobaric hypoxia-induced changes
are usually more pronounced, Dr. Marc Siegel, clinical professor of medicine
at NYU Langone Medical Center, via Fox News.
According to the team, this is the first study to look at
the combined impact of low oxygen concentration
at high altitudes and consuming alcohol before sleep.
Those [factors] are synergistic
with each other, leading to
increased heart rate and likely
increased heart pressure and risks,
even in young, healthy individuals, Dr. Marc Siegel, clinical professor of medicine
at NYU Langone Medical Center, via Fox News.
Dr. Adam Scioli, chief medical officer at Caron Treatment
Centers in Pennsylvania, suggests the study highlights
the need to stay well-hydrated when flying.
.
This can be exacerbated by
the fact that many people don’t
drink enough water before they fly,
which causes dehydration —
again increasing the likelihood
of negative impact on their heart, Dr. Adam Scioli, chief medical officer at Caron
Treatment Centers in Pennsylvania, via Fox News
Fox News reporter Peter Doocy and White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre clashed over President Biden's plan to limit events after 8 PM. Doocy sarcastically questioned late-night decision-making, while Jean-Pierre insisted Biden was joking. The exchange highlighted tensions between the press and the White House. Biden's campaign team defended his schedule, comparing it to previous presidents and contrasting it with Trump's habits.

On June 26, South by Southwest (SXSW) announced that the
United States Army would no longer be sponsoring the
2025 festival after boycotts by artists and panelists occurred in 2024.
After careful consideration,
we are revising our sponsorship
model. As a result, the U.S. Army,
and companies who engage in
weapons manufacturing, will
not be sponsors of SXSW 2025, SXSW statement, via Fox News.

out of the 2024 festival "in solidarity with Palestine,"
according to the Austin for Palestine coalition.

The group called for a boycott of SXSW
over the organization's ties to the U.S. military
and weapons-manufacturing companies. .
In 2024, the U.S. Army, Defense Department, , Raytheon and L3Harris , all sponsored the SXSW festival.

We appreciated the opportunity
to join South by Southwest in 2024.
With U.S. Army Futures Command
headquartered in Austin, we value
any opportunity to join with our
community to ignite discovery
and make new connections. , Lt. Col. Jamie Dobson, U.S. Army Futures Command Spokesperson, via Fox News Digital.
The Army will continue to
seek opportunities to meet
technology innovators and
leaders, explore new ideas
and insights, and create dynamic
industry partnerships because
tomorrow is worth protecting. , Lt. Col. Jamie Dobson, U.S. Army Futures Command Spokesperson, via Fox News Digital.
Bands and artists participating in the boycott,
including Squirrel Flower, Scowl and Okay Shalom,
explained why they protested the 2024 festival. .
There are many ways SXSW is harmful
to working musicians, but I am pulling
out specifically because of the fact
that SXSW is platforming defense
contractors including Raytheon
subsidiaries as well as the U.S. Army,
a main sponsor of the festival, Squirrel Flower, also known as
Ella Williams, via Instagram.
Genocide profiteers like Raytheon
supply weapons to the IDF, paid for
by our taxes. A music festival should
not include war profiteers. I refuse
to be complicit in this and withdrawl
[sic] my art and labor in protest, Squirrel Flower, also known as
Ella Williams, via Instagram.

Donald Trump has given his first media interview after being shot on Saturday. The former president spoke to 'The Washington Examiner' and shared that's he's rewritten the speech that he will deliver at this week's Republican National Convention in the aftermath of Saturday's assassination attempt at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania. Trump told reporter Salena Zito that he had originally planned to talk about President Joe Biden's policies in his speech, but he has now changed course.

Nearly a decade ago, Donald Trump famously stated, "What separates the winners from the losers is how a person reacts to each new twist of fate." On Saturday, the former president narrowly escaped a potential tragedy, underlining the uncanny relevance of his words. As the nation awaits the verdict on who will emerge victorious in November, Trump's recent brush with death might already position him as a winner in the eyes of many.
While addressing a campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, Trump was suddenly Thrust into a life-threatening situation. Shots were fired towards the stage, and in a fortunate twist of fate, Trump, who had been looking straight ahead, turned his head to the right to point at an immigration chart. This seemingly innocuous gesture saved his life, as the bullet grazed his right ear instead of hitting him directly.
