Question: What’s the best way to sober up?
- take a cold shower
- drink water
- exercise
- eat bread
- make yourself throw up
- drink black coffee
Answer:
None of the above! While the above "remedies" may make someone feel
better, they
do not help someone sober up. The amount of alcohol in the blood is
controlled by
the metabolic rate of the liver. The only effective thing that will
sober someone
up is time.
A general guideline: It will take as many hours to sober up as
the number
of drinks ingested. Keep in mind that even after sleeping overnight,
someone can
still wake up with a BAC over .08 which makes them unfit to drive.
