Discover how alcohol impacts your body’s processes and causes hangovers, and find out what causes the most common hangover symptoms. The molecule responsible for hangovers is ethanol, which we colloquially refer to as alcohol. Ethanol is present in all alcoholic beverages, and generally speaking, the more ethanol, the greater the potential for a hangover. So, how exactly does alcohol cause a hangover— and is there any way to prevent one? Judy Grisel explores the surprising ways that alcohol affects the body. Lesson by Judy Grisel, directed by Anton Bogaty.

What about the myth of drinking both beer and spirits, making hangovers worse? Is there any truth to it?
Vodka can cause a super bad hangover stomach ache nausea vomiting headache diarrhea headache severe dehydration I get them all at once the only way to get rid of it it’s to drink a lot of water with your drink and also drink a lot of water after your drink and get enough water and sleep
i’m 20 years old and drink pretty heavily and can take quite a bit but i always seem to wake up almost perfectly fine and can’t think of a time i’ve ever had a hangover. I wonder why…
Sure thing.
I've never had a hangover after drinking.
Watching this while being hungover hits different 😂
"I will never drink again"
-Famous last words
I’m so hungover. Got so drunk. I cursed everybody out last night. 😩
Currently have a hangover
it makes it so the heart isnt beating as hard and stops blood from going to the body at the rate its supposed too
I wanted more than "drink water" on this 😢. Also, what were the results of the study?!
Never drinking again. Didn’t know it affected the powerhouse of the cell
There is no such thing as healthy drinking in moderation.
I gave it a thumbs down simply because of them using the term BCE instead of BC. Please. This political correctness makes me want to puke
I’m 33 and recently had one of the worst hangovers. It lasted almost 3 days. Fortunately (or unfortunately) I didn’t puke. So all that booze was just sloshing around in my gut. I came close to throwing up but ended up dry heaving. Don’t wanna do that again. Looks like my heavy drinkin days are over ladies & gentlemen!
The worst hangover is a severe migraine. I can deal with a small amount of alchohol but I can't deal with its consequences. So I drink only once in a blue moon and even then, its only when I am prepared for all the consequences.
It does all that and has no actual health BENEFITS. Crazy how popular it is to drink tbh even after watching this vid I want a shot of tequila 🥴
Darn it, I love brandy and whisk(e)y.
Wine gave me the worst hangover i ever had
