How long does it take to get alcohol totally out of your system?

How long does it take to get alcohol totally out of your system?
It takes the human liver 1 hour to break down 1 ounce of 80 proof alcohol. 1 ounce of alcohol = 8 ounces wine = 12 ounces beer. A shot glass is approx 1 ounce. So add up how many ounces you have consumed and that is how many hours it will take your body to process it. Contrary to popular belief there are no shortcuts or ways to speed up this process, coffee, food, cold shower, nothing will make the breakdown of alcohol in your liver go any faster.
i dunno but i would say 12 hours maybe
There are many factors that influence the rate in which your body metabolizes alcohol including size,liver health,and others but a good rule is you rid yourself of 1oz. per hr. It takes much longer for your body to rid itself of the other impurities involved with drinking ...usually 2-3 days.And you Must rehydrate
This depends on your blood alcohol content. Alcohol is metabolized at the rate of .015 of blood alcohol concentration (BAC) every hour.
Someone with a BAC of .15 would be alcohol-free in about 10 hours (i.e. .15 BAC / .015 metabolism rate = 10 hours)

Redwood Toxicology Laboratory now offers an EtG test, claiming to detect alcohol consumption up to 80 hours after the elimination of alcohol.

Most tests can only detect alcohol consumption for 12-18 hours after the alcohol is metabolized and eliminated.
