After a party, a friend who has been drinking says he will sober up fast and then drive home. Which plan will actually lower the alcohol in his body?
Correct answer: Waiting, since only time lets his liver break the alcohol down
Why
Because the liver cannot be hurried, quick 'sober-up' tricks do not work; they only change how a person feels. A person who has been drinking may still be impaired hours later. The safe plan is a sober driver, public transportation or a cab.
