Blood alcohol absorption rate

Common Questions and Answers about Blood alcohol absorption rate

alcohol

Avatar n tn So a candy bar, for instance, while having much more sugar than a glass of orange juice, also contains fat which slows down the digestion rate. So if my blood sugar is low, the candy bar, while perhaps higher in carbs, is a much worse solution for that low blood sugar episode than the juice or bowl of cereal. 3. As for your vitamin water, it should have the carb content listed. That's what you need to know in order to know if you need to take insulin when you drink it.
Avatar f tn ) before drinking, will help slow down the rate at which your stomach empties, and will slow the rate of alcohol absorption, lessening the chances of having adverse reactions. In my case, alcohol has the tendency to make my side effects worse - so I usually abstain, even more so when I'm in public.
Avatar m tn The possible allergens in alcohol can be contaminants with alcohol, hapten carrier responses, alcohol or metabolite conjugates. One more important thing is agents like alcohol are believed to increase the rate of allergen absorption. Take care and regards.
Avatar m tn Can the food we eat affect our heart rate? I'm conducting a science experiment in which I'll be testing a person's resting heart rate and then their heart rate after consuming various types of foods. (I'll be testing to see whether or not certain foods can raise or lower the heart rate) Any ideas on what foods would be best to test for the type of experiment and why? Help is appreciated!!
Avatar m tn Hum, would that be your heigth, 6' 2"? I can't say I've ever noticed a difference in my pulse rate relative to breathing, then too there are not many pulses per breath if you pulse is in the neighborhood of 60 bpm. Just a guess, when one exhales there is a slight increase pressure inside the lungs, and I'd guess that increases oxygen absorption - thus the blood is richer in oxygen. That could be a signal to slow down the pulse.
Avatar m tn You may need to increase stomach acid with betaine HCI (hydrochloric acid) with pepsin supplements for better absorption. Vitamin C also helps with absorption which i found interesting. From the Endo Society: "Absorption of thyroid drug levothyroxine improves with vitamin C" "Certain medications and digestive diseases interfere with the absorption of levothyroxine, but often malabsorption occurs for unknown reasons, Licht said.
Avatar n tn No mystery here. Alcohol has that effect on many. My daughter got married yesterday and I celebrated quite a lot. I woke up at 3 AM very tachy. I took my beta blocker early and drank a few glasses of water. It was much better this morning. Today I did notice more PVCs than I've been having, but I also forgot to take my fish oil today. We'll see if it was acting up because of the alcohol or if they've returned.
Avatar m tn One beer or a glass of wine will cause my heart rate to increase considerably. Alcohol acts as a vasodilator, causing blood vessels to dilate and blood flow to increase.
Avatar f tn There is some differences in the rate of absorption between animal and synthetic preparations. After a single oral dose of synthetic L-T4, the absorption is approximately 70 - 80%, 20 - 30% being recovered in the stool. It is absorbed rapidly, mainly in the distal small bowel, reaching maximum plasma levels in 2 to 4 hours." "Variability of absorption also occurs with desiccated thyroid, dependent on proteolytic enzymes of the gastrointestinal tract.
Avatar n tn Could someone please tell me how long before I should begin to see some absorption of the blood that is on my brain? Fortunately, I was allowed to go home to rest without surgery. Yet, it is difficult to find any answers. The doctors are only talking about operating, yet the blood has stopped. I have not had a headache in about two weeks. Am I allowed to have sex? Please, could someone give me some activities that I should avoid other than the obvious (sports etc).
Avatar f tn Absorption rate & maximum concentration of drug in blood (Cmax) which means some of the drug is not absorbed due to the food.
Avatar n tn aspx To Figure your heart rate you take 220 and minus your age 27 = 193 when you do cardio you want to get your heart rate between 65%-85% of your maximum heart rate (193) 65% of 193= 125 and 85% of 193= 164 So try to get your heart rate anywhere between 125 & 164. It's very important to do cardio at least 5 x per week. Be sure to get the OK from your doctor. You must cut out the simple carbs. and eat more fruits and vegetables.

Avatar m tn She drinks occasionally, but all the hospital did was check for alcoholism as in do an ECG of her heart rate which was really fast during the incident, some blood tests, and urine tests, which all came out normal. She was diagnosed with alcoholism and the doctor did not run any other tests like a CT scan or anything for the abdomen. So my questions are, was the "jumpiness" a minor form of seizure or could she just have been moving around because of the pain?
Avatar m tn What you need to keep in mind, though (especially we young people overreacting on adrenaline) is that both alcohol and beta blockers reduce blood pressure (hence our heart rate seems to increase with drinking to compensate) and we can get dizzy due to low blood pressure (in addition to the alcohol;). I took my 15 mgs of Pranolol today and I'm going out for a beer today. It's never been a problem before. Ask your doctor though, just to be completely sure.
Avatar n tn healthy red blood cells. These cells are the main transporters of oxygen to organs. If red blood cells are also deficient in hemoglobin, then your body isn't getting enough oxygen. Symptoms of anemia -- like fatigue -- occur because organs aren't getting what they need to function properly. Vitamin-deficiency anemia may occur when vitamin B-12 and folate are deficient. These two vitamins are needed to make red blood cells.
