A member asked:
What can cut the smell of alcohol so the previous night isn't so apparent through your pores in the morning?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
The alcohol: odor you are describing is not from your "PORES" it is from your STOMACH (Gastric alcohol fumes) thus NEUTRALIZING the odor does not occur (by simple neutralization of your BREATH) until you neutralize your stomach contents..That's why TOMATO JUICE WITH LEMON is often termed a "hangover" remedy.....that old booze is just hiding in your STOMACH...hope this helps!
