Drinking alcohol at a rate of one drink per hour allows the liver adequate time to metabolize the alcohol completely.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

This is true. The liver can metabolize approximately one standard drink (12 ounces of beer, 5 ounces of wine, or 1.5 ounces of hard alcohol) per hour. Drinking more than this can lead to the build-up of alcohol in the bloodstream and potential negative effects on the body.
