Alchohol is not a natural item that should be in your system. It can be harmful to you in overconsumption. When you consume more than your body can absorb or can eliminate quickly your body rejects it in an attempt to prevent alchohol poisoning.\n\nYou can prevent this by drinking less. Try to consume less than one drink per hour (That is the rate at which alchohol is burned in your system.) Or eating before you drink. The food in your stomach absorbs the alchohol and allows it to pass through your system more efficiently.\n\nIn short...\nBody's self preservation + alchohol = ralph!

Alcohol is a POISON if taken in large quantities. It damages ALL the organs and systems in the body if weekly limits are exceeded, Some systems might recover, but it's a lottery. A hangover is the body,s way of saying, I,m damaged.

It depends on the color and amount of blood in the vomit.  If it is darker in color, like coffee, then it is most likely from an ulcer in her stomach.  If it is bright red, it is from higher up, possibly from the throat.  If she is bulemic, it could be a serious problem.  When a person vomits purposly, you get stomach acid to come up as well, which eats away at everything it passes over.  If it is done constantly, the body doesn't have time to repair the damaged area, thus causing the blood.  \n\nEither way, it is not a good thing.  Your friend should go to the hospital to have it checked out.  It could be nothing, but I wouldn't want to bet a life on it.

it is a way to release energy - sexual and otherwise - in a place where you will not be judged.  also, everyone else is so drunk nobody will likely remember!

It'd be weird if stress didn't cause that. So yeah, my answer is yes, I believe stress can cause you to throw up.

You're not gonna feel better until you eat. Alcohol makes your blood sugar go crazy.

Vomiting is supposed to expel dangerous stuffs from the stomach.\n\nSome evolutionary biologists believe that vomiting in response to odors is designed to prevent us from eating things that are bad for us.  For example, some carnivores can eat spoiled meat.  Humans can't.  The smell of spoiled meat makes us nauseated, and may even make us throw up so that we don't eat spoiled meat.  It may be an over-reaction.  We are supposed to feel sick to overcome any hunger pangs, but we go too far and throw up.

Maybe you are allergic to the ingredients in alcohol or it could be that your body is holding in water due to the alcohol.

IT is called bile. Bile is the acidic juices which digest your food. Usually you only throw up bile when your stomach is empty. So, there ya go.\n\n A few times, I was so sick with a stomach bug that I filled a few bags of that stuff!!! (4 hour car ride)\n\n Ugh.....stomach bugs....you don't know which end needs the toilet more.

Flies have lapping and sucking type mouth parts. They don't 'throw up' as in the sense humans mean it. And to be precise, they have mosaic vision i.e., they can see multiple images so they see pretty clearly where they are headed. and there feet have taste receptors. so if they land on something which they find 'tasty'... they start lapping wih their tongue to soften the food stuff and then suck the liquid in. Its more disgusting than 'throwing up'

They can. Its rare though, and it usually means its a severe case. There are several reasons why it is very difficult for horses to vomit: \n\nMost say that the musle closing the esophagus at its point of entry into the stomach (the esophageal sphincter) is very strong and involuntary. When there is bloat or colic, the stomach walls would burst first rather than the sphincter opening to let pressure out.\n\nSome would say the horse esophagus lacks the reflex mechanisms for reverse peristalsis (In humans, it is this reflex mechanism that causes the esophageal sphincter to relax and open).\n\nAnother possible reason is that the esophagus enters the stomach at an angle such that a flap or valve is formed. When there is bloat, pressure on the "flap" causes it to close and form a tight seal.

I don't know about vomit but in talking to a family member who is an engine builder, he said that drivers who have diarrhea just have to go in their suits.  Obviously they don't want to, but they have to.  I don't know that a driver could race and vomit at the same time because you couldn't hold the wheel, look where you are going(especially around the turn), and vomit (into something or in your helmet) which takes a few seconds to do and effects you physically while actually puking.

Alcohol is one of the greatest stimulants of gastric acid secretion. If you threw up after having vodka, there's a good chance that the acid literally burned your throat. Probably the impact of throwing up caused tiny microtears in your throat tissue, and the acid entered those microtears and made it possible for bacteria to enter. You may actually have a strep throat. Is the region red and sore? \nTreat it like you would a sore throat: hot drinks, avoid acidic foods such as orange juice, and keep your neck warm. If it's not better by Thanksgiving, I suggest you see a physician.

Yes! Because when they are drunk it makes them brave and they tell everything and their feelings come out. Things they would lie about and bottle up when they are sober. As for people if they were mad-again the truth would come out, they won't hold anything back. Example, when my sister was mad at her boy-friend, she told me that he ripped me off and it was true.

A hang-over is mostly just caused by dehydration.  Chug a bottle of gatorade and eat tons of food.  It's hard at first to get the food down if you feel sick, but it'll fix a hangover in no time.  Thicken up that blood
