The catabolism of alcohol in the human body mainly relies on two enzymes in the liver's enzyme system: one is alcohol dehydrogenase and the other is acetaldehyde dehydrogenase.
Alcohol dehydrogenase can remove two hydrogen atoms from alcohol molecules, decomposing ethanol into acetaldehyde. Acetaldehyde dehydrogenase can remove the two hydrogen atoms in acetaldehyde, converting acetaldehyde into acetic acid, and finally decompose it into carbon dioxide and water.
The main component of wine is ethanol. Alcohol is ethanol. If the human body has alcohol dehydrogenase, ethanol can be decomposed into acetaldehyde. Acetaldehyde is decomposed by acetaldehyde dehydrogenase into acetic acid. Acetic acid is not harmful to humans and is then broken down into carbon dioxide and water.
Ethanol and acetaldehyde are the most harmful to the human body. In the human body, alcohol dehydrogenase exists, and the amounts are basically equal. But there are more people who lack acetaldehyde dehydrogenase. This lack of acetaldehyde dehydrogenase prevents acetaldehyde from being completely decomposed into acetic acid. Instead, acetaldehyde remains in the body, causing symptoms of drunkenness such as nausea, vomiting, coma, and discomfort after drinking alcohol.
Therefore, people who are not good at drinking and whose alcohol consumption is below a reasonable standard are those who have insufficient or complete lack of acetaldehyde dehydrogenase. For people who are good at drinking alcohol, if they drink too much and too fast, exceeding the decomposition capacity of acetaldehyde dehydrogenase, they will also become drunk.
Whether a person is drunk depends on the concentration of ethanol in the blood. When the ethanol concentration in the blood is between 0.05 and 0.1, a person begins to feel hazy and happily tipsy; when it reaches 0.3, the person will have slurred speech and a staggering gait, which is what we often call drunkenness; if it reaches 0.7 , people will die.
People’s tolerance for ethanol varies greatly. This is due to differences in gastrointestinal absorption capacity and liver metabolic processing capacity. This also results in different levels of alcohol consumption among people. Schisandra chinensis can protect the liver, promote the detoxification process of the liver, and protect the liver from poisoning.
There are three pathways for the catabolism of alcohol in the human body: liver, skin and respiratory system; about 95% of it undergoes oxidative metabolism through the liver's enzyme system, mainly P450 (monooxygenase).
