The liquor consumption must be in optimal amount suitable to individual’s body constitution and should not cause vitiation of dosha.
The liquor consumption must be in optimal amount suitable to individual’s body constitution and should not cause vitiation of ''dosha''.
Good liquor is prepared from multiple ingredients of varied qualities which have diverse actions to help regulate the three doshas and prevent their vitiation, which may occur in case of use of single ingredient. Sushruta mentioned that the increase or decrease of the dosha is mainly influenced by the ingredients (dravya) of liquor. Therefore, manufacturing liquor with multi-component of varied quality substances will help to maintain state of homoestasis.

Features of intoxication:Hangovers are a frequent, though unpleasant, experience among people who drink to intoxication. Multiple possible factors to cause hangover state by liquor have been investigated, and evidence suggests that hangover symptoms depend upon its effects on urine production, the state of gastrointestinal tract, blood sugar concentrations, sleep patterns, and biological rhythms. In addition, researchers postulate that effects related to alcohol withdrawal depend upon, alcohol metabolism, biologically active non alcohol compounds in beverages; the use of other drugs; certain personality traits; and a family history of alcoholism may contribute to the hangover conditionas shown in table 2 below.
