Is it possible to interfere with the alcohol with soda

IN TASS interview chief narcologist Yevgeny Brun recommended not to combine alcohol with carbonated.

We understand this statement and answer the most common questions.

Is soda makes faster to get drunk

There is an assumption that the soda increasesAlcohol in the body the absorption of alcohol, so that you have increased faster ethanol levels in the blood and exhaled air. However, research on this topic is really small, and their findings are inconsistentAlcohol concentration and carbonation of drinks: the effect on blood alcohol levels, THE EFFECTS OF CARBON DIOXIDE IN CHAMPAGNE ON PSYCHOMETRIC PERFORMANCE AND BLOOD-ALCOHOL CONCENTRATION.

There is speculation that soda accelerates gastric emptying, so that alcohol quickly reaches the small intestine, where most of it is absorbed. However, scientists still have not identified

Here he writes on this subject Anna Jurkiewicz, physician and author Instagram-blog.

However, this does not mean that such combinations are useful.

How sweet soda affects the shape

Sweet soda increases the already high calorie alcoholic beverages. For example, diluting the whiskey cola in a ratio of 1: 3, you drink 239 calories. And that's just one cup of the beverage, which is rarely limited.

However, the main danger of soda is not even in the amount of calories, and in what types of sugar it contains. So, more than half of the sugar is presented in popular carbonated drinksFructose content in popular beverages made with and without high-fructose corn syrup fructose. Features metabolism of this substance causeSugar, Uric Acid and the Etiology of Diabetes and Obesity the body to store fat even without an increased calorie intake. Therefore, a large amount of fructose in the diet increases the risk of metabolic syndrome, obesity and Type II diabetes.

As alcohol and soda affect the liver

In addition to the harm to the figures of fructose sweet drinks are also dangerous to the liver, which is already suffering from holidays.

Combining alcohol with sugary drinks, we put a greater potential harm to the liver. Since sweet drinks a lot of fructose, its excess is deposited directly into the fat, including the inner (visceral) fat in the liver.

With the result that

Given these studies, we can draw the following conclusions:

• A mixture of alcohol with savory soda may increase the absorption of alcohol, but it does not have additional negative effects on the body.
• Sugar from the soda slows intoxication compared with savory sodas. However, due to the high content of fructose such water is dangerous for the figure and liver.

Therefore it is necessary to abandon the sweet drinks during the feastWhen the liver, and so have a hard time.
