Why is it when ppl drink alot of alcohol they tend to throw up?!


Question:

Why is it when ppl drink alot of alcohol they tend to throw up?

when i used to drink I would throw up but only if i drunk a considerate amount of hard liquor.
with the "wine coolers" it wouldnt be this way.
why is that?


Answers:
When people throw up from alcohol consumption its because that persons body can't process the alcohol fast enough, sooooooo, the body's way of coping is expelling the alcohol. Throwing up! Also, when you're drinking wine coolers, the alcohol content is MUCH less than hard liqour so thats why you get sick. Take it easy with that stuff! Bad on the liver!

Alcohol Poisoning and liver limits.

Wine coolers have less alcohol. Pure alcohol is a poison. Drink enough, and your body says "enough, get this crap out of me, I cant process it quickly enough and I will be seriously in trouble if it keeps coming." So, it throws it up. Hard liquor = more pure alcohol, so it happens much more easily, quickly.

Your body has it's defence mechanisms. When it recognises an overdose of alcohol it makes you sick to try and get rid of it and reduce the amount that gets into circulation. Alcohol can also cause diarrhoea and sometimes causes you to loose control at both ends.

Taking in such large amounts of alcohol is not just detrimental to your bodies well being but is also dangerous. There is a fine line between throwing up and simply lapsing into unconsciousness and death either by inhaling vomit or by alcohol poisoning shutting down your organs.

Because their bodies don't want it in there.

Your body is trying to force out the poison that your putting in it.

you might have a ulcer or your stomach may have hard time digesting certain alcohols.

hard liquor has more alcohol and your body's just trying to tell you to take it easy or your liver's gonna explode

after you are full on it just need to relax and enjoy
