How is alcohol absorbed into the Body?

The physical structure of cells is disrupted by alcohol.The most fluid membranes are the ones that are low in cholesterol.Although the effect is small, there is evidence that it is important.Animals that are resistant to ethanol intoxication because of their genetic background or previous exposure to it are found to have brain membranes that aren't easy to remove.An exception is the increased behavioral sensitivity in aging animals.A response that can be regarded as adaptive is when animals are treated chronically.Lowering its own effect may be achieved by favoring the absorption of cholesterol or saturated fatty acids into the membranes.
