Every person is different; therefore, the effects of alcohol vary from person to person. While some people may be able to limit their drinking, others have a difficult time controlling their alcohol consumption.
In order to fully understand the consequences of drinking, you should first know what constitutes as a drink. One drink is recognized as:
12 fluid ounces of beer – approximately five percent alcohol
Eight to nine fluid ounces of malt liquor – about seven percent alcohol
Five fluid ounces of wine – roughly 12 percent alcohol
One and one-half ounces of 80-proof distilled spirits (vodka, rum, gin, tequila, whisky, etc.) – an estimated 40 percent alcohol
The effects of alcohol can be influenced by a number of risk factors such as the amount consumed, individual’s medical history, tolerance to alcohol, as well as other drugs – legal or illegal – mixed with alcohol.
