Four Phases of Consuming Alcohol
The dangers of alcohol happens in phases.
You go through four phases when you consume alcohol.
- Phase 1 starts when you can feel a disturbance of your equilibrium. That happens when you have 1 to 2 per mill.
- Phase 2 starts when you get aggressive, when your musculature gets slack, and when you get tired. You start sleeping and the process of poisoning is finished, because you don’t drink anymore. That happens when you have 2 to 2.25 per mill.
- Phase 3 – When you drink the same amount of alcohol very fast, you can slip into the phase 3 right away. You become unconscious.
- Phase 4 – You get a circulatory shock and a deathtrap starts. Now there is a chance that you’d fall into the coma. That happens at 2.5 to 4 per mill. After 4 per mill, you are in coma.
My Opinion
I think alcohol isn’t good but also not bad. The only thing which is important is that you have to control your self. Many people die because they drink too fast and much.

1 part per million in blood concentration is equal to a BAC (blood alcohol level) of anywhere from a .02 to a .04. That is about half of the legal limit in the US. 2 parts per million would, of course, be twice that or a little more or less depending on the person.
On average, for a 150 lbs person 1 ppm would be four drinks in an hour with nothing to eat. 2 ppm would be something like eight drinks in the same amount of time.
