Carbonation in a beverage can actually speed up the absorption of alcohol rather than slow it down. The bubbles in carbonated drinks can increase the pressure in the stomach, leading to faster gastric emptying and quicker entry of alcohol into the bloodstream. This can result in a more rapid onset of alcohol's effects compared to non-carbonated drinks. Therefore, consuming carbonated alcoholic beverages may lead to a quicker intoxication level.
The reason why intoxicated people drink coffee is not to slow the absorption of alcohol into the body, but to use caffeine as a stimulant, to counteract the depressant effect of alcohol. One drug fights against the other. But no, coffee does not slow the rate of alcohol absorption into the bloodstream.
Eating a meal high in fats and proteins before drinking alcohol can slow down its absorption. Additionally, consuming alcohol at a slower pace, staying hydrated, and avoiding carbonated drinks can also help slow down the absorption of alcohol in the body.

It takes about 20 minutes for the effect alcohol to be noticeable. But Eating food whilst drinking will slow down the absorption rate. For every 2 or 3 drinks you should have a glass of water. (this will also slow down absorption rate.) Sometimes people will have a greater resistance to alcohol i.e. Someone being way over the driving limit but not be affected at all by the alcohol. I think the more appropriate question would have been; What factors affect alcohol absorption.
A high fat meal will slow the absorption of alcohol.
The average person eliminates alcohol at a rate of about one standard drink per hour. This can vary based on factors such as weight, metabolism, and liver function. Drinking water and eating can help slow down the absorption of alcohol.
There is little blood flow to the fatty tissue where the solution is injected. The absorption rate will hence be slow and this will lead to a slow rate of onset.
Different beverages may be absorbed at slightly different rates due to factors such as their temperature (warmer liquids generally pass through the stomach faster), alcohol content (alcohol is absorbed faster than other substances), carbonation (carbonated drinks can enhance absorption), and presence of sugars or fats (which can slow down absorption).
Yes, protein-rich foods such as meat, cheese, fish, and eggs can slow the absorption of alcohol into the bloodstream. When consumed before or alongside alcohol, these foods can create a barrier in the stomach, delaying alcohol's passage into the small intestine, where absorption occurs more rapidly. This can result in a slower onset of alcohol's effects, potentially leading to a more moderate drinking experience. However, it's important to note that while food can slow absorption, it does not prevent intoxication.
Any food in the stomach will slow absorption a little bit, but the difference is small. Instead of milk take a lot of meat or fish along with your drinks. This will not only slow down the absorption, it will protect your gastro-intestinal tract.
