  1. Alcohol will counter rehydration as it results in the kidneys passing more water to the bladder instead of absorbing it into the body. So it helps dehydrating. That's one of the causes of hangovers and also why it's better to avoid alcohol when flying.

    As to caffiene, going from the article below it only has a minor diuretic effect (i.e. making the body loose more fluid than what's taken in).


  2. alcohol- liver
