is it normal to start sweating a lot after drinking half a 375 ml bottle of bacardi strawberry rum?!
Answers:
Yea, if you're chugging about 200ml of brandy you probably have a problem. Don't drink so much.
There's 8 units in that, twice as much as you should have in a day. Imagine eating double your RDA of calories in ten minutes. You'd be really sick.
NO
You're sweating because you are obese (which is a well know fact to people who have seen this users DELETED accounts so I am NOT abusing her by stating anything she has not stated herself)
SHAME THOUGH THAT YOU CLAIM TO SIP YOUR DRINKS MOST OF THE TIME, YET NOW ADMIT TO CHUGGING IT DOWN
YOU ALSO CLAIM TO ONLY DRINK WINE & COCKTAILS - NOW IT'S VODKA & SCOTCH
IF YOU CAN'T BE HONEST ABOUT WHAT YOU DRINK HOW CAN WE BELIEVE ANYTHING ELSE YOU POST (OH HANG ON, I FOR ONE DON'T)
what are you trying to proof?? keep it up and you'll be dead..from alcohol poisoning
Some people sweat when drinking alcohol, and after they have consumed it. Alcohol affects the nervous system, which controls the sweat glands. The body also breaks down and excretes alcohol in small amounts through sweat.
Alcohol
Alcohol is a liquid containing sugars and starches. It is created by yeast fermentation.
Glucose
Large amounts of glucose (sugar) are ingested when drinking, causing the body to produce insulin to remove the glucose, including glucose not from alcohol. A side effect of low glucose levels is excess sweating.
Nervous System Reaction
Alcohol is a drug that depresses nervous system activity and alters whole body functioning. It causes hormones and enzymes to move slower or erratically, which can lead to excessive sweating, as the sweat glands are controlled by the central nervous system.
Diuretic Concentration
Alcohol is a diuretic, meaning it dilutes itself into water. Since it is attracted to water (hydrophilic), it tends to concentrate in body tissue with water, such as skin tissue. Therefore, it will dispel water where it is attracted, as in the form of sweat on skin tissue.
Excretion
The majority of alcohol is broken down by enzymes in the liver and excreted through urine. Small amounts of alcohol can also be excreted through the skin in the form of sweat.
But really your problem is not why you are sweating.. your problem is that you are drinking too much and need to evaluate that first.
