If you want to stay on your feet as long as possible – even when everyone else at the party has passed out – try these tricks.

Have a snack

Food slows down the absorption of alcohol, so don't forget to snack. But don't overeat either - that will only increase the load on your organs.

Don't eat salty food

Because of the salt entering the body, we begin to feel thirsty. What do you think you will try to quench it with when you are at a party? That's right, alcohol.

Do not mix

It's best if you drink the same drink throughout the evening.

The thing is, the drinks you start the party with set a certain rhythm.

Usually people start with low-alcohol drinks and then move on to stronger ones. But the speed of their consumption remains the same, so intoxication does not take long to appear.

Don't drink energy drinks

Energy drinks can cause you to be unaware of how drunk you are for a while, which can lead to you drinking more than you should.

Drink water

Due to the incoming alcohol, our body loses fluid. To avoid dehydration, which only worsens the symptoms of intoxication, drink more water.
