  • Women become more impaired than men do after drinking the exact same amount of alcohol; this happens because women's bodies have less water than men's bodies. Because alcohol mixes with body water, alcohol becomes more highly concentrated in a woman's body than in a man's; a simple way to explain this is to use the example of dropping the same amount of alcohol into a much smaller pail of water.
  • Beverage alcohol contains ethyl alcohol (ethanol), a simple molecule consisting of two carbon atoms; because this molecule is so small, it can rapidly be penetrated into ever tissue of the body.
  • Alcohol affects every organ in the body and it is a central nervous system depressant that is rapidly absorbed from the small intestine into the bloodstream.
