Does alcohol make the adrenal glands release adrenaline?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: However, alcohol can cause various symptoms that can seem like the adrenal glands are releasing adrenalin. Some people will flush after drinking alcohol, this can occur for genetic reasons (common in asians) or rarely due to a medical disorder (carcinoid, lymphoma).
