Life hack: How to drink and not get drunk?

0
What kind of feast without alcohol? Yes, and business negotiations in our country are often held under the spirits. How not to get drunk and keep a clear mind when it is simply necessary to drink in a company?


First of all, it is necessary to analyze the existing myths about how to stop the intoxicating effect of alcohol:



Drink raw egg. Yes, this may have some slowdown in the process of alcoholic intoxication, but we must remember that, in addition to the risk of catching salmonellosis, you can also get indigestion.

Eat Fat: Butter or Lard. In fact, in order for fat to “envelop” the walls of the stomach, preventing the absorption of alcohol, it must be consumed in really large quantities. For the average person, this is a difficult task.

Consume dairy products. Kefir can only help the morning after libations. And drinking milk along with alcohol is harmful due to the activation of the pancreas. Well, stomach problems can also be expected.

Thanks to the western press the legend of a certain Soviet drug called RU-21, which supposedly helped our scouts to always remain sober on a mission, no matter how much alcohol they drank. Retired KGB Major-General Yuri Kobaladze refutes this myth:

There are no such pills.


True, a foreign intelligence veteran clarifies:

At least I did not apply them in my practice.


What can really help to remain the most sober at the table in case of heavy libations?

first. Take 100 grams in advance. If you knock over a glass of vodka or cognac an hour or two before a feast, the body will already be prepared for the subsequent absorption of a large amount of alcohol.

Second. Use ahead of time any absorbent, such as activated carbon, as well as enzyme tablets such as Mezima. They absorb excess fusel oils and facilitate the work of the stomach.

The third. To some extent, vitamin C helps fight intoxication, but you should not overdo it with lemon in a glass, this can cause unnecessary stomach irritation.

Fourth. It is necessary to move: to dance, fight, go to breathe in the fresh air.

What to do after a party, how to return to life the next morning? Here's what our real scouts advise, taking into account the experience of staying in different countries:

Our residents in the UK eat oatmeal with sour milk in the morning. If it does not go, they can mix a cocktail of tomato juice, sunflower oil, egg yolk and cognac.

In Germany, stomach-strong scouts from Russia use pickled fish with onions and yogurt for a hangover.

In the sauna, which promotes the removal of toxins, Russian residents in Finland are soaked in the morning.

In the PRC, our scouts drink hangover vodka from a hangover, sipping it with useful green tea.

And in the service in Mexico, our people bounce back with spicy soups.

Most important thing to remember: Do not mix different spirits, and do not drink on a lowering. No one has yet disproved this postulate.
