Nevertheless, below are the short-term effects of alcohol consumption, depending on BAC (blood alcohol concentration) * Euphoria (BAC = 0.03 to 0.12%). o Subject may experience an overall improvement in mood and possible euphoria. o They may become more self-confident or daring. o Their attention span shortens. They may look flushed. o Their judgment is not as good — they may express the first thought that comes to mind, rather than an appropriate comment for the given situation. o They have trouble with fine movements, such as writing or signing their name. * Lethargy (BAC = 0.09 to 0.25%) o Subject may become sleepy. o They have trouble understanding or remembering things, even recent events. They do not react to situations as quickly. o Their body movements are uncoordinated; they begin to lose their balance easily, stumbling; walking is not stable. o Their vision becomes blurry. They may have trouble sensing things (hearing, tasting, feeling, etc.). * Confusion (BAC = 0.18 to 0.30%) o Profound confusion — uncertain where they are or what they are doing. Dizziness and staggering occur. o Heightened emotional state — aggressive, withdrawn, or overly affectionate. Vision, speech, and awareness are impaired. o Poor coordination and pain response. Nausea and vomiting sometimes occurs. * Stupor (BAC = 0.25 to 0.40%) o Movement severely impaired; lapses in and out of consciousness. o Subjects can slip into a coma; will become completely unaware of surroundings, time passage, and actions. o Risk of death is very high due to alcohol poisoning and/or pulmonary aspiration of vomit while unconscious. o Loss of bodily functions can begin, including bladder control, breathing, heart rate. * Coma (BAC = 0.35 to 0.50%) o Unconsciousness sets in. o Reflexes are depressed (i.e., pupils do not respond appropriately to changes in light). o Breathing is slower and more shallow. Heart rate drops. Death usually occurs at levels in this range. * Death (BAC more than 0.50%) o Can cause central nervous system to fail, resulting in death. |

I think every thing must be done in moderation. Too much of anything is "bad". |
