Alcohol
How do you stay below 0.05? (This is a guide only) Men average size: No more than 2 standard drinks in the first hour and 1 drink per hour after that. Women average size: No more than 1 standard drink per hour. Sobering up takes time – the liver gets rid of about one standard drink per hour. Sweating it out, cold showers, coffee, fresh air, or vomiting won’t speed up the process and won’t remove alcohol from the bloodstream any faster. This means it may not be safe to drive or work the following day.
Again, depends on the amount you drink. Sobering up takes time – the liver gets rid of about one standard drink per hour. Sweating it out, cold showers, coffee, fresh air, or vomiting won’t speed up the process and won’t remove alcohol from the bloodstream any faster. This means it may not be safe to drive or work the following day.
