If you are not sure how many drinks are enough to wake up the next day with unpleasant symptoms of drunkenness, Dr. Bhavini Shah suggested that it doesn’t take long for alcohol to affect the nervous system and brain. “A unit or two of alcohol increases heart rate, dilates blood vessels and often makes people more sociable and talkative,” she said, adding that one unit is 10 ml of pure alcohol, which is about the amount the average person can process in an hour.
She added that after four to six units, alcohol begins to affect your nervous system, slowing reaction time and affecting areas of the brain associated with decision-making, leading to poorer judgment. “At about 8 units, the average person can expect a monkey. It means that you have consumed more alcohol than your liver can process in one night“, she explained.
Finally after ten units of alcohol your coordination will be significantly impaired and you can expect symptoms of nausea, diarrhea and vomiting, as well as dehydration and headaches.
