If anything it probably affects Asians more. 10% of them lack an enzyme that breaks down one of the byproducts of alcohol, leaving them severely nauseous and with horrendous headaches. It's so severe that treatments for alcoholics have included blocking this enzyme to induce such responses and completely remove any will to ever drink again.

I recently read a biography by Danish defector Robert Dam. Gives an interesting insight on how this f**ked up cult works. Well worth a read, if you haven't already.
