    This has indeed happened. Someone has done experiments and durian has an inhibitory effect on acetaldehyde dehydrogenase. After drinking alcohol, it is precisely because the body secretes acetaldehyde dehydrogenase that alcohol can be digested and then excreted from the body. However, durian reduced the activity of acetaldehyde dehydrogenase by 70%. After eating durian and drinking alcohol, people are more likely to get drunk and even cause alcoholism. But only in vitro experiments cannot prove that the two are related.
