Eli5: How does your body reject alcohol, but not other liquids?

461 views

Long story short: I am hung over af right now. Tried fixing it with a shot of vodka, bad idea. As soon as it entered my mouth I started gulping. Then I swallowed, it came right back out. It burned my throat, so i went straight to water, which went down easy.
I know body rejects poison this way, but I really wanted that vodka. Why wont my brain and body cooperate with me?

Because you know and your brain knows that what you’re drinking caused you to be hung over.

First time being hung over?

P.S, “hair of the dog” hangover fix only delays the hangover. Eat something greasy
