Tiberius Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 I was surprised by the definition. I thought binging was like drinking for hours or days at a time The National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism defines binge drinking as a pattern of drinking alcohol that brings blood alcohol concentration (BAC) to 0.08 percent—or 0.08 grams of alcohol per deciliter—or higher. For a typical adult, this pattern of alcohol misuse corresponds to consuming 4 or more drinks (female), or 5 or more drinks (male) in about 2 hours. Research shows that fewer drinks in the same timeframe result in the same BAC in youth; only 3 drinks for girls, and 3 to 5 drinks for boys, depending on their age and size.1 https://www.niaaa.nih.gov/publications/brochures-and-fact-sheets/binge-drinking#:~:text=The National Institute on Alcohol,alcohol per deciliter—or higher.

Quit at beer #8 at 2 hours in, while 5, 6, and 7 haven't even hit the bloodstream yet. Been there, done that, drove the 'porcelain bus'. 😁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like your spirit! 🍺 🍺 I have a buddy who had his own personal breathalyzer gadget. Sometimes he’d be close to the limit BEFORE he had anything to drink, and sometimes it would say he was safe when I knew for a fact he was WAY OVER! I hope nobody got in trouble with a false sense of security from that piece of crap thing. It was no better than a Magic Eight Ball. I’m surprised they even sell them for fear of liability, not only from arrests but any accidents/injuries that might happen. I think he got it at a drug store. Or maybe at the bottom of a box of Cracker Jacks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
