About Alcohol Calculator
This tool gives a rough indication of how many standard drinks of a given type it might take before someone of your weight and sex begins to feel affected. It is a rule-of-thumb estimate for general awareness — nothing more.
What it actually calculates
Each drink type carries an approximate alcohol content in grams — around 13 g in a standard beer, 13.5 g in a glass of wine, up to about 22 g in some spirit servings. The tool compares that against a threshold scaled from a 70 kg reference, adjusting upward with body weight and downward by a factor for women, who typically have a lower proportion of body water. It then reports how many drinks reach each threshold. It does not compute blood alcohol concentration, and it does not model the passage of time.
Why individual results vary so much
Enormously more than any simple model can capture. Food in the stomach, how fast you drink, hydration, sleep, liver function, medication, tolerance, genetics and how your body clears alcohol — roughly one standard drink per hour, but with wide individual variation — all change the outcome. Two people of identical weight and sex can end up in very different states from the same drinks.
Safety note — do not use this for driving decisions
This estimate must never be used to judge whether you are fit to drive, operate machinery or work. It is not a breathalyser, it has no legal standing, and it cannot tell you your blood alcohol level. In Türkiye the legal limit is 0.50 promil for private-car drivers and 0.00 for commercial drivers, and limits differ by country. If you have been drinking, do not drive — use a taxi or public transport. If you are pregnant, taking medication, or concerned about your drinking, speak to a doctor.
