Yes, alcohol can affect the results of a lie detector test, also known as a polygraph. Alcohol consumption may impair cognitive functions and alter physiological responses, such as heart rate and breathing patterns, which the polygraph measures. This can lead to false outcomes, either by causing a person to appear deceptive when they are not or masking signs of deception. Therefore, it is generally advised to avoid alcohol before undergoing a polygraph examination.

Can cetearyl alcohol or any other alcohol in lip balm give a false blood alcohol reading in a breath test?

Cetearyl alcohol and similar fatty alcohols found in lip balms do not produce significant amounts of ethanol, the type of alcohol measured in breath tests. These substances are not metabolized to produce alcohol in the body and are used primarily as emollients or stabilizers. Therefore, using lip balm containing cetearyl alcohol is unlikely to affect breathalyzer results or give a false blood alcohol reading.
