Answer 1

When you drink an alcohol beverage, it immediately begins to be absorbed into your bloodstream, partly from your stomach and more actively from your small intestine. Adding water or other drinks without alcohol will dilute the alcohol in your stomach and will slow absorption. Eating food will also slow alcohol absorption. Food in the stomach that is high in protein will slow down alcohol absorption.

Answer:

Food in the stomach that is high in protein – The protein are digested with the help of enzymes and takes more time to digest rather than other bio molecules.

• The duodenum provided the maximum surface area for the digestion process. The duodenum is around 12 inches in length.
• The weight, gender and hormones level determines the absorption of alcohol in the body.  
• Individual with less weight are more affected by the absorption of alcohol.
