      Watermelon is sweet in taste and cold in nature. It has the effects of clearing away heat and relieving summer heat, relieving irritability and quenching thirst, promoting urination and lowering blood pressure. Drinking watermelon juice after drinking is very beneficial to preventing drunkenness, because after it enters the human body, it can competitively inhibit the absorption of alcohol and reduce the amount of alcohol entering the blood. On the other hand, watermelon juice has a significant diuretic effect, which can promote the excretion of alcohol from the body faster.

      Fresh Grape Treat nausea and nausea after drinking

      Grapes are rich in tartaric acid, which can interact with ethanol in wine to form esters, which can relieve hangover. If eaten before drinking, it can also effectively prevent drunkenness.

      Banana treats palpitations and chest tightness after drinking

      Eating some bananas after drinking can increase blood sugar concentration, reduce the proportion of alcohol in the blood, and achieve the purpose of hangover. At the same time, it can also eliminate symptoms such as palpitations and chest tightness.

      Facial flushing after drinking alcohol is caused by temporary dilation of blood vessels under the skin. This is because these people have efficient alcohol dehydrogenase in their bodies, which can quickly convert alcohol in the blood into acetaldehyde. Acetaldehyde has the function of dilating capillaries, which can cause redness in the face and even the body. skin Flushing and other phenomena are what we usually call "face flushing".

      In addition to alcohol dehydrogenase, there is also a substance called acetaldehyde dehydrogenase in the human body. People who blush after drinking only have the former enzyme but not the latter enzyme, which causes acetaldehyde to accumulate rapidly in the body and cannot be metabolized, so the blushing time will be longer.

      Compared with people whose faces remain unchanged after drinking, acetaldehyde stays in the body for a longer time and has a greater toxic effect. However, generally speaking, the red color will gradually fade after 1 to 2 hours. This is because the cytochrome P450 in the liver will slowly convert acetaldehyde into acetic acid, which will be metabolized after entering the circulation system.
