BAC Levels, Alcohol Consumption, & Body WeightA 200 pound man who drinks 10 drinks consumes 5 ounces of pure alcohol and will have a BAC of 0.18, but a 100 pound woman who drinks the same will have a BAC of 0.45, 2 1/2 times greater. This might explain why so many women support laws which they KNOW increase both traffic deaths and heart disease deaths. Alcohol, Weight and Blood Alcohol Levels*
