Does longan fruit help sober up?

Under normal circumstances, rambutan does not help alleviate the effects of alcohol, as its nutritional components cannot directly affect alcohol metabolism.

Rambutan is rich in vitamins, minerals, and dietary fiber. However, these components cannot accelerate the breakdown of alcohol in the human body. Alcohol metabolism typically relies on the actions of alcohol dehydrogenase and aldehyde dehydrogenase in the liver, which gradually convert alcohol into harmless substances that are expelled from the body. Rambutan neither activates these enzymes nor supports alcohol metabolism, and therefore cannot relieve discomfort symptoms such as dizziness and headache caused by alcohol consumption.

From the perspective of hydration, although rambutan contains some water, its water content is limited compared to specific hangover remedies or drinking large amounts of water, and is insufficient to dilute blood alcohol concentration for the purpose of alleviating a hangover. Moreover, the sugar content in rambutan does not provide any special benefits during alcohol metabolism and cannot significantly reduce the negative effects of alcohol on the body.

After drinking alcohol, one should not rely on consuming rambutan to alleviate hangover symptoms. Drinking warm water, honey water, or other fluids that promote urination may help accelerate the elimination of alcohol. If serious discomfort occurs after drinking alcohol, timely scientific measures or medical attention should be sought.
