Drinking Beer Makes My Arms And Thighs Feel Swollen And Puffy. Is This Water Retention?
This could possibly be water retention since puffiness and swelling is usually due to retaining water in those parts of the body.
Lots of people retain water after consuming certain foods or drinks. It’s called an ‘idiosyncratic reaction’. Basically the body produces more histamine when these foods are consumed, and this creates a swelling.
Beer has more yeast in it than other kinds of alcoholic drink, so it’s possible you are reacting to the yeast. It’s likely that other foods containing yeast are also unsafe foods for you, though their effects may not be so noticeable.
