A member asked:

I heard that for every glass/shot of alcohol a person has, they should drink a glass of water to equal it out. is this true?what is the reason for it?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes, but: Alcohol is dehydrating. That's why it's good to drink water. Women should only drink half as much as men. They make less enzymes that metabolize alcohols. Really women should not consume more than 1 drink daily--certainly two at most.
