This's from master wong's blog. didn't knew he had a blog anw. haha.

To discuss the effects of alcohol on the body, one must first define moderate drinking. Moderate drinking, in modern terms, would be considered at 160-280g per week of alcohol intake. This works out to about 20-40g per day, at which 3% alcohol concentration would mean taking in half to one full bottle of beer per day; Hence, actually all those 'uncles' at the coffeeshops can be considered the most healthy among us all with their daily dosage of Tiger beer.

Excessive drinking is simply any amount above the recommended intake, which over long periods of time can cause various neurological and biological complications. These include damage to the receptors in the central nervous system, death of brain cells(more commonly due to mathematical problems) and liver cirrhosis.

Extreme dosages of alcohol in short periods of time tend to cause more immediate problems. The effects of alcohol blood concentration(BAC) is as follows:

Euphoria (BAC = 0.03 to 0.12 %) Subject may become more self-confident or daring. Their attention span shortens. They may look flushed. Their judgement is not as good - they may express the first thought that comes to mind, rather than an appropriate comment for the given situation. They have trouble with fine movements, such as writing or signing their name.

Excitement (BAC = 0.09 to 0.25 %) Subject may become sleepy. They have trouble understanding or remembering things (even recent events). They do not react to situations as quickly (if they spill a drink they may just stare at it). Their body movements are uncoordinated. They begin to lose their balance easily. Their vision becomes blurry. They may have trouble sensing things (hearing, tasting, feeling, etc.).

Confusion (BAC = 0.18 to 0.30 %) Profound confusion - uncertain where they are or what they are doing. Dizziness and staggering occur. Heightened emotional state - aggressive, withdrawn, or overly affectionate. Vision, speech, and awareness are impaired. Poor coordination and pain response. Nausea and vomiting often occur.

Stupor (BAC = 0.25 to 0.4 %) Movement severely impaired; lapses in and out of consciousness. Subjects can slip into a coma; will become completely unaware of surroundings, time passage, and actions. Risk of death is very high due to alcohol poisoning and or pulmonary aspiration of vomit while unconscious.

Coma (BAC = 0.35 to 0.50 %) Unconsciousness sets in. Reflexes are depressed (i.e., pupils do not respond appropriately to changes in light). Breathing is slower and more shallow. Heart rate drops. Death usually occurs at levels in this range.

Death (BAC more than 0.50 %) - Alcohol causes Central Nervous System to fail, resulting in death.

Lucky i nv touch anything. lol.
