Do women get more drunk than men?
There is no conclusive evidence to suggest that women get more drunk than men after consuming the same amount of alcohol. However, women may generally have a higher blood alcohol concentration after consuming the same amount of alcohol due to differences in body composition. It is important for both men and women to drink responsibly and in moderation.
Why have men got a higher alcohol allowance than women?
Women are affected by alcohol more rapidly because they tend to have a higher proportion of body fat than men. As fat cannot absorb alcohol, it is concentrated at higher levels in the blood. Women also have less of a gastric or stomach enzyme (dehydrogenase) that metabolizes or breaks down alcohol before it enters the bloodstream. Because of this, women absorb up to nearly 30% more alcohol into their bloodstream than men of the same height and weight who drink the same amount of alcohol. Women are also usually shorter and lighter than men, further concentrating alcohol in their blood. Therefore, when women of average size consume one drink, it will have almost the same effect as two drinks do for the average-size man. If women eat little or skip food entirely, that compounds the effects of drinking alcohol.
