Vodka Red Bull was invented by the notable futurologist Benjamin Reed in 1999. [10] [11] It is believed it was an accidental creation and the original recipe also contained lemonade. Lemonade was eventually dropped from the recipe, as Reed felt that for more solid branding and popularity, asking for a 'Vodka Red Bull & lemonade' was too long ...
Alcohol is known to potentiate the insulin response of the human body to glucose, which, in essence, "instructs" the body to convert consumed carbohydrates into fat and to suppress carbohydrate and fat oxidation. [63] [64] Ethanol is directly processed in the liver to acetyl CoA, the same intermediate product as in glucose metabolism.
Up to 65% of American adults drink alcohol, but messaging around alcohol and its potential impact on health has been confusing in recent years. Some studies have claimed that smaller amounts of ...

He fitted an equation = of the body weight W in kg, finding an average rho-factor of 0.68 for men and 0.55 for women. This ρ m has units of dose per body weight (g/kg) divided by concentration (g/kg) and is therefore dimensionless. However, modern calculations use weight/volume concentrations (g/L) for EBAC, so Widmark's rho-factors must be ...
Directly translated to human beings, this would mean that if a person who weighs 70 kg (150 lb) drank a 500 mL (17 US fl oz) glass of pure ethanol, they would theoretically have a 50% risk of dying. The highest blood alcohol level ever recorded, in which the subject survived, is 1.41%. [87]
The high consumption of vodka in the context of binge drinking is a significant factor. [58] For smokers aged 35-54, the 20-year risk of death was 35% for men who had reported drinking three or more bottles of vodka a week and 16% for men who had reported consuming less than one bottle a week. [56]
The most obvious symptom of alcohol flush reaction is flushing on a person's face and body after drinking alcohol. [4] Other effects include "nausea, headache and general physical discomfort". [9] People affected by this condition show greater reduction in psychomotor functions on alcohol consumption than those without. [10]
