Alcohol can take approximately 30 minutes to 2 hours to reach the brain after consuming a full meal. This delay occurs because food in the stomach slows the absorption of alcohol into the bloodstream. The presence of food can also affect the peak blood alcohol concentration, leading to a more gradual increase in intoxication levels. Factors such as the type of food, individual metabolism, and the amount of alcohol consumed can influence this timing.
