Dr Neena Chandrasekaran, a medic who specializes in Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine, shared her findings to TikTok, in series called: Things they don’t tell you. 'If you are going for a night out on the town and you are going to drink alcohol, eating cheese before drinking alcohol can decrease your risk of having a hangover,' the 34-year-old explained in the now-viral video.

The Florida-based doctor said it's because cheese has a lot of protein, fat, and complex carbs that can coat the stomach, which decreases the absorption of alcohol. 'Cheese can help the body metabolize alcohol better and prevent liver damage,' she told viewers.

'Cheese also replenishes nutrients because it is full of B vitamin and calcium – these specific nutrients are depleted from the body when drinking alcohol,' Neena added. The doctor added that the ingredients in cheese can help your body's function while you're drunk.
