How many units alcohol do you drink per week?

[Brauny Blue]

Between 30-35 unit a week for me. According to stats i am in the warning zone:icon_conf. Over 35 units (17.5 pints) and you are in the danger zone.
Anyone take much notice of the scale

Apparently 21 units for men (10.5pints)
...............14 units for Women (7 pints)


upto 21 units for men is o.k
21-28 you are over but not at great risk
29-35 you are potentially putting yourself at harm.
35+ you are endangering your health.

1 unit = 1/2 pint

 

[Macky]

I have a strange feeling I may be in the 35+ group

 

[Macky]

1 unit = 1/2 pint

[Brauny Blue]

Not sure about 'shorts'.

I think a short counts as 1 unit, where as a double counts as 2.

since Friday I've had about 8 pints of Guinness (no way can you keep absolute count, it is impossible) 2 litres of voddy & a bottle of very fruity sauvignon blanc.

Am I over the prescribed limit?

Just rolling a fag as we speak.

It's all scare mongering if you ask me.

Me Dad is in his 60's & he's more of a pisshead than me, still living in Braunstone by the way. Everybody knows pissed up Irish Joe :icon_lol:
Grandad Macky was also a complete pisshead, but drank himself dead before I was born.

That sounds about right, it isn't exactly the 'salubrious' part of Braunstone, that's for sure. :icon_wink
