Question:

How come always alcohol makes me pee a lot?

idk i usually like never pee maybe twice a day but when i drink alcohol i hve to pee like every ten minutes, literally. why is that?


Answers:

Alcohol is also a diuretic. That means that it makes you pee a lot. That might sound harmless, but it’s actually the cause of most of your hangover... Most of the symptoms of your hangover are actually the symptoms of dehydration. Shaking, weakness, dizziness, sensitivity to light and sound, dry mouth, and headaches are all symptoms of both dehydration and hangover. That’s why a hangover feels so much like the flu. (Dehydration during the flu is caused by diarrhea and vomiting.)



Another problem with peeing so much is that you pee out all of your electrolytes... Your bodies dissolved minerals, such as potassium... Your body needs these for normal cell function. Without them, nothing functions properly.
