Case in
point: Those who appear to be drunk may not have imbibed a single drop of
alcohol. They may instead suffer from a
rare condition known as auto-brewery in which the body converts carbohydrates
into ethanol.
This can
occur when “microorganisms capable of fermenting alcohol outgrow normal gut
flora.” Probiotics
plus a low-carb diet have been effective for restoring gut health.
Sometimes a rose is a rose is a rose, but sometimes it’s a horse of a different color. Investigating before assuming can avoid mistaking manure for perfume.
