Why we can drink more beer than water?

Question

an adult person can easily drink 10 litres of beer per day.

which works out 3650 litres of beer per annum.

but if the same person drank 3650 litres of water per year he / or she would become seriously ill or perhaps dead.

why is that we can handle more beer than water?

Answer 1

I can guarantee that if you drank that much beer you would soon need to drink as much if not more water, you would be that dehydrated.

Might explain why there is so many grossly overweight beer drinkers.

Answer 2

you are full of sh#t

Answer 3

i know right? i mean if we drink a bottle of water- we think 'oh yeah that's enough of that' but beef just goes down bottle after bottle.

I think it has to do with the brain and how it interprets beef as food rather than water. so by that i mean when we eat food the brain works to get the digestive system going to move things along. When we drink water, it sort of slows down to let water get absorbed? I actually don't know

good question though

BTW, i don't think one can drink that much every single day

Answer 4

hey i know right

i think its like 3 or 4 gallons of water and you got water poisoning or some ****

but you dont get alcohol poisoning or anything if you drink that much...unless your really drunk and passed out

Answer 5

In a short run, I agree that an adult can drink 10litres of beer per day, but it is no good and not healthy.In a long run, you died faster.

Our body system cannot accommodate too much alcohol, your body system can go haywire.

One day 10 litres is ok and cannot for 2 days, you need rest.
