Abstract: | The rate of metabolism of ethanol in humans has been assessedby intravenous infusion of ethanol/saline under feedback controlto maintain a constant blood alcohol concentration. After equilibration,meals consisting predominantly of carbohydrate, fat or proteinwere eaten and changes in ethanol metabolic rate were found.Carbohydrate caused a significant increase in this rate andfat or protein caused small but non-significant decreases. Infusionof ethanol/saline resulted in a temporary fall in plasma freefatty acid levels and a steady rise in plasma triglycerides.The changes in alcohol metabolism following carbohydrate cannotbe accounted for by changes in insulin, free fatty acid or lactate/pyruvatelevels. |
