Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Food in the stomach can slow down the rate of alcohol absorption into the bloodstream by delaying its emptying into the small intestine, where most absorption occurs. This helps to prevent rapid increases in blood alcohol concentration and can also decrease the overall amount of alcohol absorbed by the body. Carbonation may actually increase the rate of alcohol absorption, while artificial sweeteners and the choice of wine or beer do not have a significant effect on absorption rate.
