Alcohol by the Numbers
By Dr. Richard Boyum
- 12 beers a week at 12 oz. each = 144 oz.
- 144 / by 16 oz. = 9 pounds
- 9
pounds times 50 weeks = 450 pounds
If you weigh 150 pounds, you are drinking 3 times your body weight in beer a year.
If you drink 12 beers a week, you drink 1 gallon and a pint. This amounts to 56 gallons of beer per year.
Do you drink 56 gallons of milk or juice?
- 12 beers per week * 50 weeks equals 600 beers per year.
- That
would be 25 cases.
Where would you store a year's worth of beer?
- 2,000 calories recommended per day
- 100 calories per a beer
- 10 beers per a week * 100 calories = 1,000 calories
- 50 weeks * 1,000 calories = 50,000 calories per year
- 50,000 calories of beer = 25 days of empty calories
If you drink 12 beers a week, you drink 9 pounds a week.
- 9 lbs. * 50 weeks = 450 lbs. a year
If you urinate 6 oz. in a minute, it would take 9 minutes to pass the beer.
- 450 lbs. / by 60 minutes = 7.5 hours of urinating and don't forget to add in zipper time
