How A White Claw Hangover Can Be Less Intense Than A Wine Or Liquor Hangover
Because, as the Cleveland Clinic notes, the carbon dioxide bubbles in carbonated alcoholic beverages are absorbed more quickly into the bloodstream, which means they can make you impaired more quickly (not to mention contribute to that bloated and gassy feeling).Īccording to a 2011 study published in the journal Clinical Gastroenterology and Hepatology, excessive carbon dioxide in the system can potentially lead to "changes in intestinal transit and visceral sensation." And feeling bloated, experiencing acid reflux, or constantly burping after drinking sparkling beverages are signs you may have overloaded your stomach with gas and it's time to cool it with the carbonation. Even though it may taste like carbonated water, hard seltzer is not something you want to chug. "As far as stomachaches, these can be caused by sweetened seltzers that often get their taste from sugar alcohols, which your gastrointestinal tract might have a tough time breaking down," Sonpal adds. "That can often lead to equally high, or higher blood alcohol levels." And that means a killer headache in the morning. Scott Braunstein M.D., medical director at Sollis Health, tells Bustle. "While hard seltzers tend to have lower alcohol levels than other alcohols, given their sugar load and sweet taste, people tend to drink them even more quickly and in greater number than other alcoholic beverages," Dr. Niket Sonpal, M.D., an NYC-based internist, gastroenterologist, and faculty member of Touro College of Medicine, tells Bustle. "With White Claw, you are seeing more day drinking, in part, because the product is keeping people more hydrated than traditional alcoholic beverages and is easier to conceal as a 'soft drink,'" Dr. And that hangover - especially compared to a beer or wine hangover - might make your stomach feel like it's inhabited by aliens. This means, like any alcoholic beverage, they can definitely give you a hangover if you drink enough. White Claw and other spiked seltzers contain alcohol, and they're not magic.
One 29-year-old told W Magazine, "I danced to early '00s hip-hop all night and didn't even have the slightest hangover. What's more, some devotees claim White Claw doesn't give them a hangover. If you're not in the know about White Claw, this spiked sparkling water comes in a sleek can, is gluten-free, and it has pretty much dethroned rosé as the beverage synonymous with day drinking. There are a few reasons a White Claw hangover feels different than a beer or wine hangover. Hangovers are uniquely terrible, but are they all created equal? For example, the morning after a spiked seltzer-fueled darty might feel very different from a Wednesday morning when you had a glass of wine too many the night before. You have a few drinks and wake up the next day feeling like you've been hit by a bus.
