How sensitive is %dCDT?
It has been established that %dCDT can increase after about 2-3 weeks of steady alcohol consumption of about 4-6 drinks a day (this is equivalent to a bottle of wine, 5 cans of beer, or ½ pint (8 oz.) of hard liquor). The longer a person drinks at this level (or perhaps binge drinks) the more likely %dCDT will be positive. Men seem to be more sensitive than women. In many studies, chronic heavy drinking leads to a sensitivity of 60-80%.
