Why does hangover occur after drinking alcohol?
You have often heard that whatever we eat or drink is digested in the stomach. The body cannot get energy directly from the things you eat. Food goes through many processes before being converted into energy.

Food is digested by the intestines, but not alcohol. The liver is responsible for breaking down and digesting alcohol. When you drink alcohol, the liver tries to make it into something that the internal organs can easily absorb.

In this process, the liver releases a special enzyme called anti-diuretic hormone or ADH, which works to break down alcohol. This process produces acetylaldehyde, a toxic chemical. Upon seeing a harmful chemical, the body begins the process of expelling it. Due to which many symptoms like stomach pain, nausea, vomiting appear.

Nausea - Alcohol is constantly converted into toxic acid in the stomach, which damages the intestines. Due to which stomach irritation and nausea starts.
