Can alchohol knock you out of ketosis?

[GodOfThunder]

I was just wondering since I'm going on a ketogenic diet for a while and I like drinking. Lets say it was straight vodka chased with water. Wait. Fuck the water. I'm not taking any chances. JK. But really what do you think?

Yes, it will knock you out, but as long as all you've consumed has been just alcohol (not mixed with an excess of carbohydrates) your body will return to ketosis as soon as it has digested all of it.

Absolutely! When alcohol is introduced to the system, your body will focus on using it is enery. Any carbohydrates, or even protein (possibly) will be converted to storage.

I will kick you out of ketosis and you wont get back in until all the alcohol in your blood stream is out, can take a while - I would suggest against it.

would it be beneficial to take r-ala when consuming alcohol?

I would suggest against it; since low-blood sugar levels and drinking don't mix well.

It's different for everyone and all depends on the person and how much of what you drank.

alcohol take at least 3 hours to burn away
if you consome lots and go to sleep (pass out) on a regular basis, have you noticed you wake up in the middle of the night usually 3-4 hours later???? that is when your system has returned to normal statis
