Following his divorce, a man in Thailand relied solely on beer for a month and was found dead.

Overview

  • Thaweesak Namwongsa, a 44-year-old father in Rayong’s Ban Chang district, stopped eating and consumed only beer for roughly one month after his divorce.
  • His 16-year-old son found him unconscious on his bedroom floor suffering a seizure and immediately called rescue workers.
  • Paramedics from the Siam Rayong Foundation arrived to find over 100 empty beer bottles neatly arranged on the floor and were unable to revive him.
  • Authorities believe the chronic alcohol intake likely led to severe nutritional deficiencies and triggered the fatal seizure.
  • The forthcoming autopsy is expected to confirm the precise cause of death and has sparked broader concern over mental health support and extreme drinking behaviors.
