The normal, healthy liver can process about 1/2 ounce of pure alcohol (thatâs 6 to 12 ounces of beer, 5 ounces of wine, or 1 ounce of spirits) in an hour.
Women are at risk of liver damage if they drink about half as much alcohol as men. That is, drinking more than 3/4 to 1 1/2 ounces of alcohol a day puts women at risk. Risk may be increased in women because their digestive system processes alcohol less quickly.
