What dehydrates you more? A Pint of beer or a shot of gin?
Answers:
Consumption of ethanol has a rapid diuretic effect, meaning that more urine than usual is produced, since ethanol inhibits the production of antidiuretic hormone.
Overconsumption can therefore lead to dehydration (the loss of water).
this means that it depends on how much amout of alcohol you take? in One pint suppose it is 1Lt. of beer and beer has 5-6% of alcohol in it. means it contains 50-60 ml of alcohol. and gin contains approx 40% of alcohol. and in one shot we take 50 ml of gin then alcohol amout is around 23 ml. so pint of beer has more alcohol then shot of gin but meanwhile beer has a lot of water too compared to gin. so if you compare same amout of absolute alcohol with different amout of water intake simultaneously then you can decide that what produces more dehydration. let say 50 ml absolute alcohol from beer and 50 ml of absolute alcohol from gin then gin gets more score to produce dehydration as there is less water content in gin.
I hope that my scientific answer would have satisfied you.
shot of gin...............so have a shot of gin and chase it with a pint of beer ! repeat 6 time's .........no worry''s
