Alcohol and a full stomach?

Question

does it take longer to get drunk with a full stomach? or does a full stomach just make it less easy to tell if someone is drunk? does haveing a full stomach effect the way alcohol effects the brain?

Answer 1

It takes a longer time to get drunk with a full stomach. The food in your stomach absorbs the alcohol.

Answer 2

certain foods slow down the absorbtion of alchohol into your system. once the alchohol reaches your blood stream it doesn't matter what you are eating.

Answer 3

Why waste the space with a full stomach....

Answer 4

yes, it will slow down the absorption process, and you won't feel like drinking as fast

Answer 5

all i know is that if u drink on an empty stomach the alcohol hits u faster.....oviously because there is nothing in ur stomach and the alcohol is absorved faster.

on a full stomach, idk, i know that if i have eaten already, it takes alot longer for me to "feel" the alcohol....

Answer 6

If you want to get drunk quick don't eat as the achohol is absorbed quicker. If you want to have a period of resistance then eat.

Answer 7

it does take longer to get drunk, but it doesn't mean you will be less drunk. the amount of alcohol in a certain time period decides how drunk you will be, not matter what you have in your stomach before.

Answer 8

definitely, the more food you have in your stomach the more the alcohol has to mix with and get absorbed much slower.  if you drink on an empty stomach it gets absorbed much faster!

Answer 9

IT IS BEST TO HAVE FOOD IN YOUR STOMACH WHEN DRINKING.................. YOU WILL ENJOY

IF YOU DRINK ON EMPTY YOU WILL GET DRUNK, AND QUICKLY
