don't think race or ethnicity has anything to do with it. a reaction because of an illness, or when your body is going though a phase - like pregnancy is different.. people with hepatitis c, or people with type 1 Diabetes's, HIV, or people that need to always be on an anti-biotic..........unles you reword your question, all i can think of..
And that would be the wrong answer.
Actually it is Asians. Since many have a gene that impairs the metabolism of alcohol. It is called the flushing effect. Reactions involve facial flushing, sweating and nausea after only a drink or two.
