I've noticed if I have a drink I get completely drunk on one shot on low carb. I read how you handle alcohol is related to how much of an enzyme you have that converts alcohol to an aldehyde (the aldehyde is what does the damage). So I think when I eat healthier I make more of that enzyme.

LC is a WOE and Way of life. A lot of us want to be optimally healthy and alcohol is a toxin that reversibly at first scars the liver. I saw the blood test of a friend of mine that drinks a about 4x a week, a few drinks and his cell blood count test was completely whacked out in nearly every parameter. He even has macrolytic anemia. It changed the way I look at alcohol.
