Can boiled water help sober you up

Drinking can have many destructive effects on the body. For example, when drinking, if the concentration of ethanol in the blood is around 0.05‰, our body will feel dizzy and shaky, and we begin to get drunk. If we continue to drink, the alcohol concentration in the blood will continue to rise, and we may lose consciousness, or even pose a threat to our life and health. After being drunk, you can sober up by drinking boiled water.

Boiled water can dilute the alcohol in the blood and slightly relieve the symptoms of drunkenness, but the effect of sobering up is not very obvious. If you add some honey to boiled water, the effect of sobering up can be greatly improved. Mongolians often drink heavily because they feel irritable after drinking. Yogurt is their secret recipe for sobering up. Once they drink too much, they drink yogurt, which can protect the gastric mucosa and delay the absorption of alcohol. Because yogurt is rich in calcium, it is particularly effective in relieving symptoms of irritability after drinking.

Gastrointestinal discomfort and facial redness after drinking. When you feel gastrointestinal discomfort after drinking, drinking some celery juice can significantly relieve the symptoms. This is because celery is rich in B vitamins needed to break down alcohol. If your gastrointestinal function is weak, it is best to drink celery juice before drinking as a preventive measure. In addition, drinking celery juice can effectively eliminate the symptoms of facial redness after drinking. When your whole body gets hot after drinking, watermelon juice is a natural Baihu Decoction (a classic Chinese medicine prescription). On the one hand, it can accelerate the excretion of alcohol from the urine to prevent it from being absorbed by the body and causing whole body fever; on the other hand, watermelon juice itself has the effect of clearing away heat and removing fire, which can help cool down the whole body. Adding a small amount of salt when drinking can also help stabilize your mood.

The above introduces some basic principles of drinking boiled water to sober up. It should be emphasized here that alcohol or alcoholic beverages are very harmful to the body. For example, people who drink frequently will suffer damage to their central nervous system, which will cause people to react slowly. In addition, after people drink, most of the alcohol is detoxified and excreted in the liver. At this time, the burden on the liver is increased, and it may also lead to alcoholic cirrhosis.
