What Causes Hangovers?
When we drink too much alcohol, we deplete our stores of the key vitamins and minerals our bodies need to function smoothly, while simultaneously increasing the production of fatty acids in the liver (triglycerides). Because the liver is the key organ responsible for filtering out toxins in our bodies, the task becomes even more difficult, because, after the consumption of alcohol, the content of free fatty acids rises quickly in the blood. That means the liver can’t function as well, even though it has more to do.
