>>67050615When we're born, our genes essentially dictate how well we can handle alcohol on a physical level via the production of two different dehydrogenase, the enzymes that metabolize the alcohol in our bloodstream (and which also dictates whether someone is more or less likely to die of illnesses related to drinking).
The concentration of these enzymes produced don't vary much throughout our life, so we're pretty much stuck with whatever basic tolerance we have upon birth. From that point on, it comes down to experiences and habits with being drunk.
>tl;drHow well someone handles themselves, outside of drastic outliers, is heavily dependent on experience being in that state and not biological factors most of the time. This is because someone who gets drunk on three beers will always be "drunk" on three beers. Someone who regularly drinks three beers will become used to being "drunk" on three beers, so they can get "drunker" by drinking more.
Height, weight, gender, age, whether you ate or not, and even where you're drinking can affect how long it'll take to feel drunk, as well as how long you'll remain in that state, but someone who gets "drunk" in three beers will always get drunk in three beers and it has nothing to do with being vegan or not.
