Do you really know about alcohol?

[Stinkweed]

I know that alcohol is a depressant. I just want to know how many glasses of wine could a person who is 6'2" and 225lbs and has some food in his stomach, be able to drink without getting drunk, but still feel some of the effects such as feeling relaxed etc.

Alcohol is processed through the liver at approximately 1 standard drink per hour. At 225 lbs, 3 drinks within 2 hrs will get you to that point your talking about without getting drunk or over the legal limit.

those 3 drinks would be what specifically? Beer, wine, rum? I am curious about wine specifically. Do you think you could tell me how much wine that person could drink and just have the effects I said before?

I've read and heard recently that your alchol tolerence is based on metabolism. My friend who is about your size gets drunk a lot faster than I (I'm 5'10 and weight about 145lbs). He can have about 4 beers and be totally outta of it while 4 beers just makes me a little drunk, this would be if we consumed em at the same rate. Depending how fast you consume will affect how drunk you get.

 

And about the wine, 3 glasses wouldn't affect u that much say over a course of two hours you probaly would get that relaxed feeling. I know my dad drinks about 2 glasses in a 1 hour period and he seems more relaxed. Now say u had three glasses in 5 mins that'd probaly get you a little too relaxed.
