Alcohol should not be drunk on an empty stomach. In this case, the risk of poisoning increases.
Doctors have long been able to prove that a heavy lunch or dinner reduces the rate at which alcohol enters the bloodstream and protects the gastrointestinal tract from it.
Therefore, during a feast, quality snacks are necessary. About what exactly is better to choose, the candidate of medical sciences Evgeny Belousov told " Lenta.ru ".
The specialist noted that emphasis should be placed on foods that are rich in vitamin B.
For example, these could be vegetables, fruits, nuts or liver.
In addition, on the festive table you need to find a place for treats that are rich in fatty acids. This could be fish, avocado.
Belousov also added in a conversation with journalists that hot and fatty foods prevent the active absorption of alcohol into the blood.
Water and soft drinks will slow down the process of intoxication.
The doctor added that you shouldn't get carried away with cocktails on holidays. They may contain incompatible drinks that will only worsen the condition.
