Question 1

would rum raisin ice cream affect a drug test?

Accepted Answer

Not likely: Raisins contain tyramine, an amino acid derivative. Large amounts of tyramine can cause an increase in pulse and blood pressure.  Rum raisin ice cream does not have enough rum or raisin to cause any significant side effects or interfere with drug tests.

Question 2

what all the benefits of white rum to our body?

Accepted Answer

Deleterious effect: Without doubt, you don't have to drink any alcohol, and if you currently don't drink, don't start drinking for the possible health benefits. The evidence about the possible health benefits of alcohol, white rum included, isn't certain, and alcohol may not benefit everyone. Take care.

Question 3

what are the health benefits of rum?

Accepted Answer

In my opinion none: Small amounts of alcohol in ANY form (beer, wine or distilled spirits) - ONE standard drink per day - may have a beneficial effect on raising High density lipoprotein (HDL), a form of cholesterol that is protective. However, it goes up far more with exercise. Amounts of alcohol over this do not benefit health - they harm it.  More than 1 drink/day in women and 2/day in men is the limit of safe use

Question 4

what to do if i drink too much rum?

Accepted Answer

Get help cutting: down, or stopping altogether would be my suggestion. Safe alcohol consumption in men is no more than 2 standard drinks (12 oz beer=5 oz. wine= 1 1/2 oz distilled spirits) per day (and if 100 or 151 proof, it's essentially 2 drinks in one), no more than 14 per week and never more than 4 per occasion. If you need help cutting back/stopping, there are many programs that can help. Talk to your PCP.

Question 5

can you tell me how potent is jamaican rum weed?

Accepted Answer

Supposed to be very: potent, if in fact that is what you are really getting. However, since outside of medical marijuana dispensaries, or shops in Colorado and Washington State that are regulated and have regular folks growing the stuff, you don't know what you are getting. Dealers are as notorious as used car salesmen at selling their product and hoping it.

Question 6

is bacardi white rum @ the amount of of 350ml of having weekly once, is bad for health?

Accepted Answer

Intoxication? yes: If this amount is ingested "weekly once, " then you are describing  binge drinking.  You are imbibing roughly 10 shots of rum in a shorter amount of time than your detoxification organs can clear it.  Not only can this challenge your system, but the resultant intoxicated state will impair your senses and judgement.

Question 7

how much rum is good for health in a day & in a week? in one sitting,how much amount should not be exceeded?

Accepted Answer

Consider carefully: for men, 3oz per day is considered ok. for women, 1.5 oz per day. Binge drinking is always a bad idea. and I wouldn‘t say rum is good for health. the only connection i know is drinking wine and positive effect on cardiovascular health. Even then, there are more detrimental effects than health benefits from chronic alcohol use in general. sporadic social use in moderation is best policy

Question 8

how many calories are in 1 oz of rum?

Accepted Answer

Google this: There are many online resources for calorie count information that you can check.  Rum is a sugar, and your answer depends on the "proof" or alcohol content plus residual sugar in it.  So the answer varies.  http://wiki.answers.com/q/how_many_calories_in_1_ounce_of_rum  you could check the label about yours.

Question 9

Accepted Answer

Related: Most likely this vomiting caused by this drink. Please observe yourself. If it happens again you need to see a doctor. Now, please drink water and avoid spicy food.

Question 10
