FAQs

Blood Alcohol Content (BAC) is a measure of the amount of alcohol in your bloodstream. It’s expressed as a percentage.

Why it matters:

• BAC affects your coordination, judgement, and reaction time

• Legal limits vary by location (typically 0.08% in the US)

• Understanding your BAC helps you make safer decisions

• Higher BAC levels increase health risks

Siply: Sip Smarter tracks your estimated BAC in real-time to help you stay informed and safe.

Siply: Sip Smarter uses the Widmark formula, a scientifically-backed method that considers:

• Your weight - heavier individuals typically have lower BAC for the same amount of alcohol

• Your sex - Different body water content affects alcohol distribution

• Alcohol consumed - Based on drink type, size, and ABV percentage

• Time elapsed - Your body metabolizes alcohol at approximately 0.015% per hour

Important: This is an estimate only. Actual BAC can vary based on factors like metabolism, food intake, medications, and individual physiology.

Your body metabolizes alcohol at approximately 0.015% BAC per hour. This rate is fairly constant and cannot be significantly accelerated.

Only time allows your liver to process alcohol. Siply: Sip Smarter shows you your estimated BAC over time to help you plan ahead.

Remember: Even if you feel fine, your BAC may still be elevated. You still have alcohol in your system until 0.0 BAC.
