How to get rid of fumes from the mouth quickly, how to get rid of the smell of alcohol

What is the smell of fumes is familiar to everyone who periodically abuses alcohol. In the morning I go to work, and my mouth smells so bad that I don’t want to go anywhere, let alone work. The problem must be solved, but not everyone knows how to remove fumes at home and return to life. There are simple and effective ways to deal with this problem.

How to get rid of the smell of alcohol

The main culprit for fumes is ethyl alcohol contained in alcohol. It is he who gives the effect of intoxication. Without ethyl alcohol, alcohol would cease to be alcohol.

First, the alcohol is absorbed by the stomach, then goes into the intestines, where it is processed. Some of it is absorbed by the food eaten and exits the body. Approximately 25% of the total mass of alcohol is excreted from a person in the urine, through the lungs and through the skin pores. The remaining 75% is processed by the liver, breaking down alcohol into acetaldehydes. It is they who are the source of the terrible smell.

Having consumed large amounts of alcohol, a person weakens the liver. She cannot cope with the process of processing alcohol, which results in its getting into the blood. It is in the fume that the aldehydes are contained. This information is necessary for those who encounter the problem often enough. You need to know this in order to understand how to quickly "kill" a hangover aroma.

Moderate doses of alcohol will never give a fume effect. Drinking no more than 200 ml of alcohol with a strength of 40%, a person and others will not encounter the smell.

An unpleasant smell should not just be muffled with the help of various improvised means. The main task is to remove aldehydes from the body.

This can be done in several ways:

1. Fluid intake. Drinking plenty of fluids is recommended. It is better that it is a good mineral water with gas, mixed with lemon juice and honey. This tasty and healthy drink can help the body to remove the remaining amount of ethyl alcohol. Also, the drink helps to saturate the body with vitamin C and other essential substances. It removes aldehydes well from green tea, juices, compotes. Well, everyone knows the classic options - cucumber and cabbage pickle.
2. Cold and hot shower. Most of the aldehydes come out through the skin, so you need to take a contrast shower to wash them off. You need to take a shower with a washcloth and body gel. In addition, a contrast shower contributes to the appearance of vigor and recovery of energy. In the event that a person is experiencing problems with the cardiovascular system, you need to take a hot bath very carefully. The water should be warm. It is forbidden to go to the sauna while having a hangover in case of heart problems. These options help flush out toxins and cleanse the body, but are only recommended for people with healthy hearts.
3. Physical exercise. Light warm-ups and jogging help ventilate the lungs and reduce withdrawal symptoms. You shouldn't think about any strength exercises while hungover. In any case, this will lead to negative consequences for the regenerating organism.
4. Food. It seems odd to ask what to eat without smelling like alcohol, since most people can't even look at food when hungover. But you need to eat. The ideal way to get rid of a hangover and fumes is to take a large mug of hot, strong meat broth, preferably cooked from a piece of meat. But in the absence of it, cubed broth is quite suitable. Oatmeal with pieces of fruit and nuts helps a lot. Porridge is quickly absorbed by the body and helps it to get full and get the necessary nutrients.

How to quickly remove fumes

There are many ways to remove the smell of fumes in the morning, but some of them, on the contrary, enhance the unpleasant effect.

You can quickly remove the smell of fumes from the mouth at home in the following ways:

1. Gum. The easiest way to hide the alcoholic smell. The first minus is that it helps some, and enhances the smell to others. The second minus - the effect of gum is minimal - up to a quarter of an hour. It is best not to use minty gum. They are very harsh and tend to enhance the alcoholic odor rather than remove it. If you are going to use gum, then it will taste like fruit.
2. Toothpaste. Alternatively, you can brush your teeth several times at intervals. If not toothpaste, then you can use a special mouth fluid or spray. Minus - the action is about the same as that of chewing gum - a quarter of an hour.
3. Other options. Among the rest, parsley can be distinguished, or better cilantro (chew for a few minutes). Chew for 3-5 minutes coffee beans. Seeds also help remove odor, fried, of course. Bay leaf or 50 ml vegetable oil - even more effective means than those mentioned above. Lavrushka should also be chewed for several minutes, and the oil should be drunk.

These methods are used by many in order to kill the smell of alcohol. But there are other ways to bring down the fumes, although they do not work as quickly.

Effective but slow acting

Green tea, lemon and honey were discussed above. The anti-burn effect is also provided by coffee. He, like any liquid, has a diuretic effect, improves kidney function, killing alcohol residues. But only natural coffee "takes away" the fumes, and this is usually a double espresso.

Not everyone has the opportunity to make it at home - you won't find coffee machines in every home. To do this, you will have to go to the nearest bar. But there is also a disadvantage here. In the bar, you are tempted to drink beer, not coffee. Coffee, as a "cure" for a hangover, is recommended only for those who do not have problems with the cardiovascular system and blood pressure. The effect of coffee comes on within an hour and lasts about five hours.

Herbal infusion helps to fight off the smell of fumes from the mouth. The option is also not quick: you need to brew and infuse the herb. You need to brew dandelion, chamomile or oats. Fruit juices and herbal infusions make it possible to restore the mineral-acid balance. They intensively fight the smelly aroma, defeating it in 90% of cases.

Again, you need to remember about food, which helps to effectively eliminate the smell of alcohol. Broth is a quick remedy for fumes. Brewed a cube - that's all. But, if possible, it is better to eat soup. Well removes hangovers and kills borscht fumes. Surprisingly, both the one and the other effect is given by ordinary scrambled eggs - fried eggs.

There are many vitamins in soups, proteins and amino acids in scrambled eggs. All this speeds up the processing of ethyl alcohol residues. After the soup, it is good to eat some kind of fruit. Watermelon, strawberry, or wild strawberry are recommended. They all have a diuretic effect.

Pharmacy products

Medications also help to kill the smell of alcohol from the mouth:

1. Antipolitsay (lollipops, spray). The downside is that experts categorically prohibit its use before getting behind the wheel.
2. Zorex capsules, Limontar tablets, capsules and solution R — X 1, activated carbon. The first three relieve hangovers and eliminate the smell. The latter only relieves the hangover.

Prophylaxis

Not wanting to give up drinking alcohol, many are interested in what to do so that they do not smell of fumes. Contrary to popular belief that this smell is inevitable, there are ways to prevent it:

1. The simplest thing is not to drink a lot of alcohol.
2. Before and during the "celebration" eat sweets: chocolate, honey, any other sweets.
3. Some time before drinking alcohol, drink warm milk or ayran / tan.

If there is confidence that the rate of alcohol will be too high, you should at least consume high-quality alcohol. Although it is expensive, the hangover from it is much easier, and there is practically no unpleasant smell.

During a feast, you must always have a good snack.

It is desirable - more hot, and not as is customary in Russia - a piece of sausage, cheese or cucumber.

How long does the fume last?

The persistence of a fume in the morning depends on several factors:

Age	Young people get rid of hangovers faster. The body is stronger and ethanol is processed and excreted at a faster rate than in older people. Ethanol processing usually slows down after 25 years
Liver condition	If the liver is sick, the fume will be stronger and lasts longer.
Gender	In the male part of humanity, the fumes disappear faster than in the female. In women, the body processes ethanol 2-3 times longer
The alcohol content of the drink	The fume will depend on the strength of what was drunk. 40-degree alcohol will definitely cause a persistent smell
Drinking set	Lean people take longer to get rid of alcoholic odor than overweight people. If the weight of the drinker does not exceed 70 kilograms, then the smell will last longer.

If we talk about the dependence of fumes on the type of alcoholic beverages, then the situation is as follows:

Type of drink	Alcohol content	The amount drunk	Fume stability
Vodka, cognac, whiskey	40 - 43 percent	From 250 ml - 300 ml	11 a.m. to 2 p.m.

14 to 17 percent (semi-sweet, sweet wines and liqueurs)	200 ml to 250 ml	3 to 6 hours
Beer	4 percent (light)	500 ml	1 hour to 2 hours
6 percent (strong)	500 ml	2 to 4 hours
Champagne	1.5 - 2 percent (dry)	200 ml	30 minutes - 1 hour
2 - 10 percent (semi-dry)	200 ml	1 hour - 3 hours
Above 10 percent	200 ml	2.5 hours - 4 hours
Liquor	30 percent	300 ml	8 to 11 hours
Gin and tonic	10 percent	250 ml	2.5 hours to 3 hours
