Does chewing gum or eating sweets reduce the blood alcohol level?

Correct answer

No.

The blood alcohol concentration depends on many factors, so it cannot be calculated solely by considering the amount and type of alcohol consumed. Furthermore, contrary to what some believe, none of the following activities has been proven effective in reducing the blood alcohol concentration: exercising, chewing gum or eating sweets, drinking or chewing coffee, drinking tea, drinking oil, smoking, consuming cocaine, using certain mouth sprays, drinking a lot of water, or consuming egg white.
