How much is too much alcohol?


I drink a 750ml bottle of red cabernet shiraz (14%) wine most evenings, I dont have a hangover the next day and dont care if I go a week without the wine so I know Im not an alcoholic but is it safe to drink a bottle of red each night?

I think for your own good you should visit the above website for information about your drink habits. A lot of the people who have answered your question have done so in a very glib manner not aware of the danger and harm you are doing to your body.
You are 3-4 times over the recommended drink limits.

When you begin to feel a little strange around the back of your neck you are over the limit to drive but in any event you have had enough. Do not do that every night 'cos you will eventually damage your liver and maybe you kidneys

Good Question - Only you know the answer -
You looking to drink till you get a hangover? If you are, try drinking more because what you have is not enough to trigger a hangover. The other fact is, 1 drink for an alcoholic is too much. Good Luck in searching for your Answer.

The recommended weekly alcohol limit is:

3-4 units per day for men and
2-3 units per day for women.

Hiya, i really like my wine to, but usually it is either a bottle every other week i have one, in the one night lol.

i think maybe just cutting it down to one glass a night, would be fine, or every other night etc, like your treat.

i am sure it is red wine that is quite good for you (well as alcohol goes, i love red wine to)

That depends on your weight etc. I myself drink half a bottle every night with supper. I have done that for about 20 years. A lot europeans drink wein with every meal. A bottle would be a bit much for me, but if you dont start to increase and it doesnt affect your life, it should be ok. everyone is diffrent. Maybe it helps you to relax .

Not if you don't want liver cancer in 20-25 years.

Probably not!
Remember an alcoholic was not born one , it is a person which may have addictive tendencies , and drinking a complete bottle in one sitting all by yourself , well... i would be concerned, Red wine per say is actually good for you , if it relaxes you or helps you unwind , try limiting your self, to a glass per day, or better yet one glass only a couple of times a week , see if you can grasp the self control aspect of it , having no limits or boundaries on yourself could potentially get you into trouble. if it's difficult or you find you HAVE to have the complete bottle i would just avoid it all together and maybe talk to someone about it, some counseling, there may be an underlying issue your not aware of. Remember Society 's view on alcoholism is a knocked out dragged down drunk with a hangover, and that is sooo far from the truth, So many alcoholics are functional parts of society, but damage is being done to themselves, and in their personal lives, and loved ones around them.. I wish you the best, and the fact that your asking is an excellent sign of awareness on your part!!! BE HEALTHY...

When you have to hold on to the grass to keep from falling off the earth, you've had too much

You'd probably be okay to throw in another six pack of beer.

For me a mouthful will put me in hospital, that was from drink abuse, it is now a toxic poison. I have seen a pickled kidney, it was taken from the body like that - pickled by alcohol.
So beware because it all started when I drunk a bottle of white wine one night. One night too many or so I am told.

one tequila, two tequila, three tequila, floor....:-)

that's a lot of wine for one evening... they (but then again who is they ?..:-) ) suggest one or two glasses... as long as you keep healthy and you don't suffer you're allright i guess..:-)

cheers !

its not that bad but you dont want to get to use to it .

it is fine to drink as much as you like, until your drinking starts to effect other aspects of your life negatively, like job, family, boy friend ....ect. than you know its too much.

no one on here can tell you how much alcohol you should drink. it should be common sense that it depends on your weight, your body, your health, your family history, etc. go ask your doctor. and all of this coming from an 18 year old.

That's a lot for your liver to process. Two drinks per night is a good, healthy amount. Any more can be detrimental to your health.

When you wake up in the morning, and someone has dumped on your chest...

great
