Ever wondered how long alcohol lingers in your body after that last drink? This episode of 'Recovery Partner Network' breaks down the nitty-gritty details of alcohol metabolism. It’s not just about the buzz fading away; understanding how long alcohol stays in your system can be crucial for your health, legal matters, and even your job.
The podcast explains that alcohol is processed at a rate of about 0.015 per hour, meaning it can show up in blood tests for up to 12 hours. But that's not all. When it comes to urine tests, alcohol can be detected for 3 to 5 days with the ethyl glucuronide (EtG) test or up to 12 hours using traditional methods.
If you’re navigating sobriety, or supporting someone who is, this episode offers essential insights into how your body handles alcohol and why it matters. The host’s straightforward approach makes complex information easy to grasp, ensuring you’re well-informed without feeling overwhelmed. Perfect for anyone on the recovery journey or those just curious about the science behind alcohol metabolism.
