Men

The amount of alcohol in the blood stream is called the blood alcohol concentration (BAC). A BAC of 0.05 means that an individual has 0.05 g of alcohol in their body for every 100 mL (0.1 L) of blood. A standard drink is 10 g alcohol, which is approximately equal to 100 mL of wine. A man´s BAC will generally increase by between 0.01 to 0.02 for each standard drink. A man´s BAC will generally decrease by 0.01 per hour (approximately 1 standard drink).

The University of Adelaide Road Accident Research Unit recommends, however, that to remain under the legal limit of 0.05, a man should consume no more than two 10 g standard drinks in the first hour and one each hour following.

The consumption of alcohol with a meal, however, will significantly slow the absorption of alcohol from the gastrointestinal tract. The maximum BAC recorded will, therefore, be lower than when alcohol is consumed on an empty stomach. In addition on a full stomach BAC will be recorded for a longer period of time.

Women

The amount of alcohol in the blood stream is called the blood alcohol concentration (BAC). A BAC of 0.05 means that an individual has 0.05 g of alcohol in their body for every 100 mL (0.1 L) of blood. A standard drink is 10 g alcohol, which is approximately equal to 100 mL of wine. A woman´s BAC will generally increase by between 0.02 to 0.03 for each standard drink. A woman´s BAC will generally decrease by 0.0075 per hour (approximately 3/4 of a standard drink).

The University of Adelaide Road Accident Research Unit recommends, however, that to remain under the legal limit of 0.05, a woman should consume no more than one 10 g standard drink in the first hour and one each hour following.

The Institute recommends that wine consumers should not drink and drive.
