Had no alcohol drink whatsoever but still gotten badly drunk. That is what has been happening to a man in America. In fact, his blood-alcohol level was found to be 0.2%, about the same level after taking 10 drinks just in an hour when he was tested.

For example, when a person with this syndrome eats bread or pizza, he or she gets drunk. Since this syndrome is rare and not easily diagnosed, it had been regarded as a myth until recently.
Can you imagine how difficult life might be if you suffered this syndrome? Just having a bowl of cereal for breakfast and gets drunk to start a day? Fortunately, there are cures such as antifungal therapies and probiotics that help normalize the bacteria in the stomach.
