True or False: Eating foods high in fat and protein can slow down alcohol absorption.

  1. True

  2. False

  3. Only with carbs

  4. Not relevant

The correct answer is: True

Eating foods high in fat and protein can indeed slow down the absorption of alcohol. This is because such foods form a barrier in the stomach, which slows the emptying of stomach contents into the small intestine where alcohol is primarily absorbed into the bloodstream. The presence of fat and protein can delay the onset of alcohol's effects by allowing the body more time to metabolize the alcohol consumed. This slower absorption rate can lead to a more gradual increase in blood alcohol concentration, which can influence the overall impact of drinking on an individual. Therefore, the assertion is true, as consuming these types of foods can indeed affect how quickly alcohol is absorbed into the body.
