The pancreas can also be effected by alcohol consumption and secrete enzymes internally instead of sending them to the small intestine. This will cause inflammation (pancreatitis). Kidneys are effected by alcohol consumption in that when heavy amounts are consumed, the kidneys increase their urine output and are so busy ridding the body of the excess fluids that it cannot regulate the distribution of sodium, potassium and Chloride ions. 5. How fast is alcohol metabolized? The body can metabolize alcohol at the rate of .015 of bac every hour. Or about an ounce of liquor an hour (1 regular drink) Pg. 3 6. What are the effects of a .20 BAL on a 160lb man and on a 120lb woman? Women have a different physiology than men. However .20 BAC is .20 in either men or women. Now the AMOUNT of drinks taken to get to that point would be more or less depending upon the weight gender of the individual. A 160lb man would have to consume more (double the number) drinks than a 120lb woman in order to maintain an equal BAC as her. Now the physiology of a woman is different in that women tend to be less hydrated than men and weigh less. As she consumes alcohol she will be effected quicker as well as not need to drink as much. A normal 160 lb man in general is more hydrated and doesn’t react or process the alcohol as quickly.
