How many units of alcohol is realistically safe in a night?!


Question: How many units of alcohol is realistically safe in a night!?
When i go out generally I drink 2 strongbow and two fosters which adds up to 9 units do you think that is safe for a 16/17 year old in a week!.Www@FoodAQ@Com


Answers:
lol thats not 9 units!
at most a can of cider is 2units(but that is 8% alcohol) strongbow is around 5% alcohol if i remember correctly, lets call that 1 unit!.!.!.
and beer is very rarely more than 1 unit, but at most 2 (fosters is larger, isn't it!?) but i can't remember its proof, lets say 1 unit also!.!.!.
so 2 strongbow+ 2 fosters = 4 units
the way it works is a man, of average weight, with average capacity for alcohol can process 1 unit per hour!.!.!.
anyway i cant see a 17 year old being drunk after 4 units!. so this isn't too much no,
well on average through a whole night drinking(3-5hours)
4-6 units = vaguely tipsey
15units = drunk
18 = very drunk (cant stand)
20 -22 = sick
25+= unconcious!.
so 4-6 units is ok, every day, it would do damage, but every now and again, no harm at all!.!.!.!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Not too sure what "units" are but Im 21, 140lbs and I can some times drink a 2/6 to my self and be really drunk but be ok!. its all going to depend on the person!Www@FoodAQ@Com

Probably not, i would suggest slowing down to one, of each!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
