Why does alcohol push sweat out? Anyone else experience the phenomenon of starting to sip some alcohol, and suddenly cold sweat just starts dripping out of your pits for no reason?

>> No.14865143

Sorry that high school anatomy failed you. When your liver processes alcohol it creates heat. Your body sweats to lower your internal temperature.

The correct phrasing would be "Sorry that you failed high school anatomy." Alcohol actually lowers body temp while creating the feeling of increased body temp, dipshit. Go do some nexercises and get that noggin joggin.

No it doesn't heat you up it does the opposite. What you're saying comes from the practice hundred or so years ago that you should give people lost in snow/the cold whiskey, which is why St. Bernards were depicted with whiskey barrels around their neck. In fact, alcohol only makes you /feel/ warmer, and actually acts as a blood thinner, which can do more damage to someone who is already suffering from low body temperature.

While on that point, if you don't know, if you stumble upon someone suffering from LBT or hypothermia, the last thing you want to do is give them a hot meal/drink because it can actually cause more damage than it solves

>wiki

How about an actual scientific study which proves you wrong; it IS exothermic, but it does NOT raise body temperature.

>

We investigated the effects of alcohol on thermoregulatory responses and thermal sensations during mild heat exposure in humans. Eight healthy men participated in this study. Experiments were conducted twice for each subject at a room temperature of 33 degrees C. After a 30-min resting period, the subject drank either 15% alcohol (alcohol session) at a dose of 0.36 g/kg body weight or equal volume of water (control session). Skin blood flow and chest sweat rate in the alcohol session significantly increased over those in controls 10 min after drinking. Deep body temperature in the alcohol session started to decrease 20 min after the onset of sweating and eventually fell 0.3 degrees C lower than in the controls. Whole body hot sensation transiently increased after alcohol drinking, whereas it changed little after water drinking. The increased "hot" sensation would presumably cause cool-seeking behavior, if permitted. Thus, alcohol influences thermoregulation so that body core temperature is lowered not only by automatic mechanisms (sweating and skin vasodilation) but also behaviorally. These results suggest that decreases in body temperature after alcohol drinking are not secondary to skin vasodilation, a well-known effect of alcohol, but rather result from a decrease in the regulated body temperature evidenced by the coordinated modulation of various effectors of thermoregulation and sensation.

Because blood flow increased, especially near capillaries near the skin, leading to a loss of heat, and sweating in humans, like panting in dogs, is a way to cool the body down.

Alcohol constricts the blood vessels which makes you feel hot, but has the opposite effect. That's why a lot of homeless people die of hypothermia in the winter.

Alcohol is first a vasodilator, only well after you've reached and passed the levels we call drunk does it then act as a vasoconstrictor.
