For example, a woman who weighs 45kg's and drinks 1 glass of wine, her Blood Alcohol Content could = 0,045g! If she had not had anything to eat she could be over the legal limit. 1 Unit = 0.02g in 100 ml blood, or 0.10mg per 1000ml in the breath. It takes the body approximately 1 hour or more, to get rid of one unit.any restaurant glasses are 250 mls, and so red wine comes to 3.3 Units! On 1 glass of red wine everyone is over the Legal Limit! (0.06g). Please note: cans of beer come in different sizes (330ml, 340ml, 440ml, 750ml and now a 500ml. Therefore units of alcohol vary greatly depending on the can/bottle size.
