The medulla is the part of your brain that controls basic survival functions such as breathing and heartbeat. When you've consumed so much alcohol that the medulla is affected, your brain's ability to control respiration and heart rate is severely diminished. Your heart rate can drop and breathing cease, causing death, at blood alcohol levels as low as .30%.
A blackout is an amnesia-like period that is often associated with drinking alcohol, whereby the individual seems to be functioning normally, but later has no memory of what occurred.
Alcohol oxidizes when it gets into the human system; this process occurs at the rate of an ounce in two or three hours. For 100-proof whisky, which is up to fifty per cent alcohol, this would mean that 8 ounces of whisky would be gone from the body in less than 12 hours; most of the alcohol would be breathed away, but some of it would be lost through sweat or urine.
Women who are alcoholics have death rates 50 to 100 percent higher than those of male alcoholics, including deaths from suicides, alcohol-related accidents, heart disease and stroke, and liver cirrhosis.
