"Auto Brewery Syndrome"

 

https://www.pennlive.com/food/2019/10/mans-stomach-was-brewing-its-own-beer.html?outputType=amp

 

"Police and doctors didn't believe a 46-year-old man who swore that he hadn't had alcohol before he was arrested on suspicion of drunken driving.

His blood alcohol level was 0.2, more than twice the legal limit for operating a car. He refused a breathalyzer test, was hospitalized and later released. But the facts remained in contention.

Then researchers discovered the unusual truth: Fungi in the man's digestive system was turning carbohydrates into alcohol - a rarely diagnosed condition known as "auto-brewery syndrome."

4 Agreements, #4:

 

4. Always Do Your Best
Your best is going to change from moment to moment; it will be different when you are healthy as opposed to sick. Under any circumstance, simply do your best, and you will avoid self-judgment, self-abuse, and regret.

 

Really?  Are you being: "That Guy?"

 

?

 

I was testing all you slobs!  See what happens when I spoil everyone! LMAO... They demand more.  ???

         Years ago I saw an episode of a lawyer show that stuck in my mind.   It might have been a Perry Mason.   Anyway, someone was on trial for doing something while drunk, although the guy on trial said he didn't drink.  At the end of the show the lawyer had the court verify he was not drunk, and then gave the defendant soda crackers.  After a few crackers and a little time, the defendant was dead drunk.  The defendant was not guilty.   I always wondered if there was any facts related to the premise.  I guess so.  Now off to google to see if I can find the episode.

         I haven't found an episode but it could just as well have been an "Andy Griffith show" episode.
