Explanation
On average, the human body can process the alcohol content in 5 ounces of wine, 12 ounces of beer, or 1.5 ounces of distilled spirits (approximately 14 grams of alcohol) in about one hour. However, this is only an estimate, as factors such as body weight, food consumption, and drinking speed can affect how quickly alcohol is processed. Always remember: never drink and drive.
