Question

How does alcohol effect nutrition?

Answer 1

Affect.

Answer 2

I am sure it washes out the nutrients from our body. Since the advise says to eat and drink water. Water is needed because we are dehydrated food because we lose vitamins from the alcohol.

Answer 3

Alcohol depletes the absorbtion of nutrition.   It makes the liver work overtime to filter it from the body.  The harder the liver is working on the alcohol, the less it has to give to the regular functions of the body.  

Alcohol also blocks vitamins from absorbing.. Like A, B,  B12 and Vitamin C.   It is essentially a poison in your body that the body doesn't reconize. It works hard to get rid of it, therefore shutting down the regular functions it needs to keep you healthy.
