Why does alcohol make you hot after drinking it?!
Answers: I've come to realize, as I'm sure most people have, that during the consumption of alcoholic drinks it tends to warm your body up and sometimes can make you sweat. I've always wondered why it has. I'm sitting here drinking Smirnoff Ice and I'm starting to heat up... even my hears are really warm. So I post the question, why does alcohold make you hot after/as you drink it?
The alcohol makes the blood rush to your capilaries or to your skin, so it gives a warming sensation.
Even though it makes you feel warmer, it actually brings blood away from the core of your body and makes you colder.
When you drink alcohol, it constricts the blood vessels, warming the body.
Alcohol makes your capillaries spread, and that way they are cooling. The filling of hotnesses in temporary!!!
It raises your Blood Pressure.
