But how much do you really know about this? Most people do not realize the damaging effects being dehydrated from alcohol can do. First I will tell how the alcohol causes the dehydration. I’m sure you know that when you drink a lot of alcohol you urinate more. Well this is because ethanol, which is in the alcohol, stops something called vasopressin from being released. This leads your kidneys to product more urine and that’s what leads to alcohol dehydration. So when you urinate it is not just the alcohol coming out its also additional water from your body.
