If You Get Drunk Only Once Can It Affect Your Body?

Question

I was just wondering ^^

Answer 1

Only while you are drunk!

Answer 2

i guess it depends just how much you drink, if we're talking like giggling stage, then don't worry about it. If you're legless (Can't stand up) and passing out, then you might want to think about a little less next time. But I doubt it will affect your body much. Well other than the hangover in the morning lol.

All that is based on if you're about 18+ however if you're mothering an unborn child, I would suggest not drinking much, maybe a glass of wine a week or maybe not even that. A glass of wine every so often won't have enough of an effect to concern yourself about.
And yes its true men can handle more drink than women (In general) It's a known fact and I've seen first hand that most women can't drink as much as men, or if they try, they end up in a right state.

Have fun and have a merry Christmas *Hic Hic*

Answer 3

Short answer Yes

How much depends on how much

If you just had a few shots got fall down **** faced,.. maybe even a slight hangover,.. the effects are almost non existant

Now..... If you got Keg Stand Bottle Guzzling Alcohol poisening almost dead drunk,... yeah,.. this could be a bad thing.... not only can you actually drink so much you die,... you can casue brain and organ damage....

good rule of thumb,.. always drink with a freind you trust,... that way hopefully one of you realizes at some point that the other is about as f'ed up as tolerable and calls it a night for the both of you

Answer 4

Drinking daily effects your body just as much as getting drunk once

Answer 5

Yes, but how much of an effect depends on just how drunk you get. If you drink enough alcohol, you can die. Also, most women tend to forget that if they are of or before child bearing age, it can affect their eggs. Women should drink less than men, in part, because of that reason.

Answer 6

It would depend a lot on just how much you drink, your bodys metabolism, and if you mixed medications or drugs with it (hopefully you're smarter than that.
Getting drunk just once could possibly klll you , BUT in most cases it would have no long term effects, other than making you not want to do it again, or making you want more. My advice to you, if you're even thinking about it - DON'T.

Answer 7

Body size - because there is more blood in a large person than in a small person, the concentration of alcohol in the big person will rise more slowly, and reach a lower level, than in a small person, even if they both drink the same amount.

Gender - women's bodies have more fat and less fluid than men's; so even if they are a similar size and weight to a man, and drinking the same amount, the concentration of alcohol in the blood will be higher in the women. Women are more sensitive to the immediate effects of drinking during ovulation (about 2 weeks before a period) and in the 2 or 3 days before a period. They are likely to feel the effects of alcohol more quickly at these times than they would normally. Women using the contraceptive pill do not experience this effect, but alcohol may take longer to process.

Age - it appears that both young people and older people may process alcohol more slowly, and so they will have alcohol in their systems for longer.
Genetics - there may be variations in how alcohol affects people of different races. For instance, many people of East Asian origin have an enzyme, which causes a strong allergy like reaction to alcohol.

it can also effect

Brain
Heavy drinkers suffer brain shrinkage (loss of brain cells) and even moderate drinking may effect brain function.

Liver
Heavy drinking can cause fatty deposits in the liver, eventually leading to cirrhosis. A liver damaged by alcohol cannot process the nutrients in food, nor eliminate toxins from the blood.

Stomach
Alcohol is a common cause of gastritis and stomach bleeding.

Blood and heart
Alcohol is an important cause of high blood pressure (hypertension), itself a cause of stroke.

Cancer
Excessive drinking doubles the risk of cancer of the gullet, trebles the risk of cancer of the throat and quadruples the risk of cancer of the voice box. There is evidence that it can increase the risk of breast cancer.

Nervous system
Nerve pains or drinking large amounts can cause tightening in the arms and legs.

Other problems
Vitamin deficiency, obesity, sexual difficulties and infertility, muscle disease, skin problems and pancreatitis have all been linked to excess alcohol consumption.

For women
Women are more susceptible to some of the long-term effects of alcohol, and can develop liver disease at lower levels of drinking than men.

Mental health
Despite initially helping to relieve tension, alcohol can actually heighten anxiety. It is a factor in many cases of depression too, and it is estimated that alcohol has been involved in about 65% of suicide attempts
.
Dependency
Taken often and in large quantities, alcohol is addictive - that is a person needs to drink to prevent unpleasant and occasionally dangerous withdrawal symptoms
