The liver can only metabolize a small amount of alcohol at a time, leaving the excess alcohol to circulate throughout the body. The amount of alcohol consumed determines the effect on the body.
Alcohol statistics show that approximately 53% of U.S. adults have articulated that one or more of their family members or close relatives engages in excessive and/or abusive drinking. Alcohol related statistics such as these go a long way in establishing the extensive nature of alcohol abuse and alcoholism in the United States.
More than seven percent of the population, nearly 13.8 millions, aged 18 and older have problems with alcohol, including 8.1 million people who suffer from alcoholism.
Among the factors that influence blood alcohol levels (BAC's) after a fixed number of standard sized drinks are gender, body weight, and the amount of food in the stomach; other factors include the rate of drinking, the presence of other drugs that can affect alcohol metabolism, and the overall health of the individual.
