Enzyme: It happens to many people with drinking. Some have a deficiency of an enzyme in the stomach that helps metabolize alcohol, which makes one more susceptible to its side effects.

Sensitive: alcohol is a poison""toxic" to heart, muscle, brain tissue, and bone marrow in any dose. You just happened to be a little more sensitive/"poisoned" than most other people. wwhen I first began to drink, I use to get a stiff neck. People have varying sensitivities to everything.
