What? Why wouldnt one to become drunk after drinking?? Manexplain us
The point of over drinking is to get drunk.
Yeast eats sugar and makes alcohol. Yeast doesn’t eat alcohol. This concept is incredibly flawed.
What if just the fat is the trick to less absorption? Just like how your body absorbs less sugar if you eat fat first.
Getting drunk for science!😂
I don't know if this makes a difference, but… that guy using "Gogurt" would not bring any of the probiotic yogurt bacteria into the equation, since I'm pretty sure "yogurt" products like Gogurt are pasteurized. Also… I know yeast eats sugar to make alcohol, but does yeast further eat alcohol turning it into something else? I thought that in the cases of Kombucha and Vinegar, the original alcohol generated by yeasts is mostly or entirely eaten/transformed after being created, but not by yeasts, rather by various strains of bacteria.
Can yogurt help to not drunk?
Ok, Ok, ok. Wait what? When I first saw this I was like right, no way. Then you guys showed me that its totally possible. Im going to need to try this at the next holiday party for sure.
Kudos to Joe, that was a serious amount of whisky he imbibed and he seemed relatively sober! Maybe there really is something in this…
Feel it's a little misleading. The yeast itself is not doing anything, its the enzyme alcohol dehydrogenase that you mentioned is in the dried yeast that would be stopping you from getting drunk. Might as well supplement with the enzyme rather than the yeast
This is awesome! haha
Alcohol is a waste product of yeast. Why would one think they will consume their own waste in a hostile environment of stomach acid? The sugar in the yogurt will feed the yeast and produce alcohol until the whole mess is digested.
They sound pretty pissed at the end there. 😆
Having controls in the group would have been good. Including pairs, one with with and without yeast, would give greater confidence. For example, suppose that the breathalyser did not work?
Can’t believe you didn’t record and post footage of the gas.
did you try the same process, but no yeast-yogurt appetizer first (for comparison)?
A blood alcohol would be awesome to see. You can get vastly different results as the breathalyzer is a test of recency vs your BAC which would give us a more accurate idea off your intoxication. It would also probably leave us with more questions than answers though 😂 great video
So will you be hungover the next day?.
Control test: drink and make sure the meter shows a proportional increase? Otherwise how do you know the meter doesn't read 0.03/0.04 the whole time?
I did this after hearing Mr boston brewers secret about 15 years ago. I killed a 12 pack of his beer without a slight buzz…..it worked!!! …….now having said that, the next day was hell on earth. I felt just like I should have if I drank that 12 pack without the yeast 😆
"There’s some science backing this up…" No, there is not. There are a couple anecdotes backing this up, from Owades and Koch. Anecdotes are not data. The idea behind this is based simply on the "appeal to authority" fallacy.
Over what time period did all of you consume all the alchohol? Cause the common wisdom is that the body metabolizes about 1 drink per hour
As an exBEERiment reader and fan, I´m curious about where this new channel is heading. Just one suggestion: don´t fall into the clickbait traps. I do love homebrewing, like 2 decades of love. Been drinking alcohol for more than 3. Promoting hacks to drink lotsa booze is kinda like "hey kid, try this out next party and you might drive home sober". So I hope you make this just as true as your legendary (and responsible) website is.
Looks fun! I think I may have done something similar to this on accident with some hastily prepared Pizza dough..
Also now I want a whisky bottle with Helen’s party descriptions as volume markers!🍻
That means that you can drive a car after 4 drinks?
What a waste of alcohol lol
Take enough yeast and you might come back around to autobrewery 😆
So curious!!!
Calling Cooks's champagne is like calling Budweiser a german pilsner
On a somewhat unrelated note I read that you can take yeast supplements to keep mosquitos from biting you. And in my experience I rarely get bit but my wife gets bombarded. Not sure if it’s related to all the beer I consume but might be worth an experiment Martin!
Cheers!
I'd be curious to see this done with a similar diet for everyone between two days. first day just drink on a schedule, checking the breathalyzer at certain points. second day (which doesn't have to be the day after necessarily, sometime kind of close though, maybe same day next week) do this with the yeast, drink about the same across the same period of time, checking the breathalyzer at those certain points. I just feel like "how do you feel" or showing it not going up much doesn't mean a whole lot. Cool thought though, even if it sounds like it may not be worth it in the end
So, how was the gas? Great little experiment Martin, cheers Cheers.
I'd love to see this test replicated without the use of yeast just to see what the alcohol levels are and how different they would be. 0.08 is the legal limit here in Vermont so that seems to work quite well.
I read awhile back this could really mess up your gut biome. There was a guy that drank juice and got drunk because it was fermenting in his stomach.
Need a gas update!
And you should have had a control group that did not eat yeast.
No thanks
