HI,

can somebody please explain me the alcohol metabolism in detail i always am confused about itsad tnx.

hey man alcohal metabolism is not a big deal. alc produces lot of NADH so body has high energy, and high NADh favours triglyceride formation ,
main three reaction in which high nadh works pyruvate to lactate, OAA to malate, and DHAP to GLYCERAL3 PHOSPHATE. due high convertion of glucose to fat thats why we high rate of hypoglycemia in alcoholics.
