One neurosurgeon is going viral on social media after he put up an alarming video of how long it takes for the body to break down alcohol.
The doctor revealed how he just went through the most heartbreaking tragedy involving his own son who died from a drunk driving accident.
The eye-opening clip by the doctor features him telling the world that there is still to react before it’s too late while confirming the actual amount of time that the body takes to detoxify and break down the likes of alcohol.
He even provided insight into drinking at parties and how you can save your own life and that of so many others with a few simple tips and tricks.
58-year-old Doctor Brian Hoeflinger demonstrated the ordeal through a descriptive example. He had plenty of shot glasses in front of him that was filled with water from his kitchen.
He added how the liver can only end up metabolizing one drink shot in one hour. So those having regular-sized drinks may end up consuming a lot more than that and the consequences are hazardous.
The neurosurgeon similarly detailed what he felt was the standard-sized drink glass for those in the US.
This included anything that filled 0.6 fluid ounces or 14 grams of pure alcohol. While the drinks pictured may be different each does have the same amount of alcohol he revealed in the video.
The doctor mentioned his family tragedy where his own son died after drinking and getting behind the wheel.
He advised others to steer clear of that behavior and really did hope they would have a safe and healthy lifestyle so they don’t have to go through the pain and suffering he’s been through after his son’s death.
