Variation in Blood Alcohol Content

39
Blood alcohol content is the percentage of alcohol present in your bloodstream.
Normally the legal percentage of alcohol in blood is different in different countries.
In the United States and Canada, the legal percentage is 8%.
8% is the legal term in United States and Canada.
This means that legally you will be considered as intoxicated if the percentage of alcohol in the blood is less than one tenth of one percent of your blood that is concentrated with alcohol.
There are two different ways to measure this.
One is breathalyzer and the other is blood test that is taking blood sample.
There are different things and habits that effect the measurement of the blood alcohol content.
The most important is what type of alcohol you are taking, what is your tolerance power, what you have eaten before, at the time of drinking and after drinking, your gender, what is the percentage of body fat and many other different things.
Your sickness can also change the level of alcohol in blood.
If you are a regular drinker and drink same number of pegs even then your blood alcohol content varies.
Suppose you have taken five cans of beer last night and today also you have taken five cans of beer.
It is not always possible that your blood alcohol content will be same.
If it is 10% last night then it can be 8% today.
It depends on many other things.
Also if you are hungry, thirsty, tired or have taken less of different alcohol than last night then your blood alcohol content may vary.
There is no spread sheet on internet or any other way from which you can download and check the level of alcohol in the blood.
Even there is no mathematical calculation to calculate the blood alcohol content.
This is only because of the changes that take place in the body.
There are many different myths about blood alcohol content.
Different myths are there for reducing the level of alcohol in blood like drinking a lot of coffee, doing a lot of physical exercise, bathing under cold water, eating a lot of pickles, drinking a lot of lemon juice, etc.
But all this is waste as these things cannot reduce the instant level of alcohol in the blood.
Level of alcohol in the blood can only be reduced by passing time.
It can take one to four days or more to clear out the level of alcohol in the blood.
There is no other way.
To get the level of alcohol in the blood accurately all you have to do is give a sample of blood for testing and after checking the exact alcohol content in the blood can be determined.
It is 100% accurate.
The most intelligent thing that you can do is after drinking stay at the place where you are or if it is very urgent to drive then opt for a person who is not drunk and can drive you home safely.
