[QUOTE="csf1s, post: 136671, member: 6918"] Slightly confused!! A small (125mm) meaure of whiskey is indeed one unit and the liver will take approximately 1 hour to process it. Why then should it stop the liver from producing glucose for four hours and two measures for eight hours etc? I think that this may be incorrect. Incidentally for those that drink red wine (like me) a small standard pub measure i.e. 175mm of wine at 12% volume contains 2.1 units of alcohol. In other words a 125mm measure of 8% wine is 1 unit. This formula can be used to work out the alcohol unit content of any wine and therefore how fast you need to drive back from the pub! :? I'd like to get to the bottom of my query. [/QUOTE]
