Like even if it’s just a few shots, why does the body produces so much urine from just a few shots or drinks?
In: Biology
It’s not just the volume of liquid you consume. Alcohol is itself a diuretic, meaning it makes you pee more. Alcohol reduces the production of a hormone called vasopressin, which tells your kidneys to reabsorb water rather than flush it out through the bladder. Basically, it disrupts the normal process of your kidneys reabsorbing water and instead tells them to send it to your bladder as urine instead.
