Women ‘suffer worse hangovers’
Scientists compared hundreds of men and women, finding that not only did the women get drunk faster, they also suffered worse hangovers.
"This finding makes biological sense, because women tend to weigh less and have lower percentages of total body water than men do, so they should achieve higher degrees of intoxication and, presumably, more hangover per unit of alcohol," said Wendy Slutske of the University of Missouri-Columbia.
