Why is it hard for me to get drunk?!


Question:

Why is it hard for me to get drunk?

i'm not much of a drinker, but i do drink whenever i am invited to hotel parties my friends throw maybe like twice a year. Last year, on my twenty-first birthday I drank like seven shots of tequila along with other drinks and i did not get drunk at all. my friends tried to get me drunk but it didn't work. sometimes my body aches when i drink. does that mean im allergic to alcohol?


Answers:

well there care two reasons i can think of

1. your body retains much more water than most people which would dilute the alcohol and prevent you getting drunk as quickly as most people

2. there are enzymes in your body that beak down the alcohol molecules, the more often you drink the more your body produces and men usually have more than women, maybe your body always produces more of theses than usuall!
