Can cooking salt help sober you up?

Getting drunk is a phenomenon that many people in the workplace will experience. In the workplace, socializing is inevitable, so it is very necessary for friends in the workplace to master some methods to sober up. So, can the salt used for cooking help to sober up? I believe this question is also something many people want to know. Let’s take a look at whether salt can help sober up and what are the methods to sober up.

Using sugar water to sober up is one of the common methods used by the people to sober up. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that white sugar can moisten the lungs and produce body fluids, relieve dry mouth and thirst, and treat abdominal pain caused by deficiency of the middle part of the body. Taking an appropriate amount of sugar water can dilute the alcohol concentration in the stomach and reduce the absorption of alcohol. After sugar is absorbed, the blood sugar concentration increases and the alcohol concentration in the blood decreases, which speeds up the metabolism and excretion of alcohol in the body, achieving the purpose of sobering up. In addition, taking light salt water orally can also dilute the alcohol in the stomach and reduce the alcohol concentration in the blood.

Two fruits that can help sober you up:

1. Tomatoes

Eating tomatoes raw or drinking tomato juice can both help to sober up, but the latter is more effective. Since tomatoes contain special fructose ingredients that accelerate the decomposition and absorption of alcohol, drinking more than 300 ml of tomato juice at one time can quickly get rid of the dizziness after drinking and sober up from drunkenness.

Friends who spend the whole day at dinner parties drinking and not going home until they are drunk may try drinking some tomato juice to help themselves sober up. Of course, for friends who drink a lot, drinking tomato juice to sober up is ultimately a "symptomatic treatment". If you want to cure the root cause, the best way is to avoid excessive drinking, especially long-term excessive drinking! Don't drink more recklessly just because tomato juice has the effect of sobering up. After all, it still needs to be metabolized by our liver. Tomato juice can only relieve the symptoms of drunkenness and cannot fundamentally reduce the damage to the body.

2. Banana

Some people feel chest tightness and rapid and strong heartbeat after drinking. At this time, you can eat 1 to 3 bananas to relieve the discomfort. Because bananas contain substances that increase the blood sugar concentration, the increase in blood sugar concentration causes the alcohol content in the blood to decrease, achieving the effect of sobering up and relieving palpitations and chest tightness.

The above is an introduction to whether salt can help to sober up. Drinking is very harmful to human health, I believe many people know this. So for your own health, try to avoid drinking. If it is unavoidable, pay attention to protecting your stomach to avoid stomach diseases caused by excessive drinking.
