Question 1

how much beer is safe to drink everyday for a healthy adult in milliliter if it contains 8% alcohol by volume?

Accepted Answer

Depends: Your alcohol tolerance is specific to your physical  condition.  Beer is generally a safe beverage in moderation.  However, there are many factors to consider.  I would suggest you discuss this with your primary care physician.

Question 2

how much does beer sabotage weight loss?

Accepted Answer

Depends on amount: 1 beer on occasion (every few days) with a good weight loss program will not affect you at all. 2-3 daily will cause you to gain 1-2 pounds weekly. So it depends on how much you drink. If you have to have one have one on occasion. If you truly want to lose the weight, cut it out.

Question 4

how much benadryl (diphenhydramine) and beer would knock you out completely?

Accepted Answer

Depends: That  depends on several factors: your tolerance to alcohol, your sensitivity to antihistamines, your present level of sleepiness, whether or not you've ingested any stimulants, etc.  I assume you're looking to a benadryl/alcohol combination to help you sleep? If so, that is a bad idea. The resulting sleep quality would be terrible, and you'd awaken feeling unrested (or worse!) talk to your doc.
