why does drinking alcohol makes you thirsty?
feeling thirsty after few couple of shots is something people usually
suffer from and it becomes really annoying when you wake up in the
morning being unable to talk out of thirst,even if you try to drink alot of
water before drinkingbut Why do we feel so thirsty after consuming too much alcohol?
and is there anything we can do to avoid being in this situation every single
timein order to know the answer of that question ;we need to learn how
kidneys work,How do the kidneys work?
The kidney is not one large filter. Each kidney is made up of about a
million filtering units called nephrons. Each nephron filters a small amount
of blood. The nephron includes a filter, called the glomerulus, and a tubule.
The nephrons work through a two-step process. The glomerulus lets fluid
and waste products pass through it; however, it prevents blood cells and
large molecules, mostly proteins, from passing. The filtered fluid then
passes through the tubule, which sends needed minerals back to the
bloodstream and removes wastes. The final product becomes urine.back to the point
When you drink a relatively diluted form of alcohol(such as beer) you
consume a significant amount of water; while simultaneously ;reducing
your kidneys' ability to efficiently get rid of that water,(according to the
University of Montana). in other words,your kidneys will absorb the water
back to the blood, which conserves your 70% quantity of water in your
bodyWhen you drink more concentrated hard alcohol, you increase your
kidneys' ability to eliminate water.
summation:. Alcohol makes the kidneys stop absorbing water When the kidneys do not
reabsorb as much water as needed; consequently, the kidneys produce
more urine. When you dispose of that urine your body feels as if it were
dehydrated, because of the sudden loss of water in all of your urine.
Which is why you pee a lot after consuming excessive amounts of alcohol,
and because of that u feel thirsty.
solution: drink water in between shots & pee.
