The metabolic breakdown of alcohol is performed by the enzyme alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH), which is found mostly in the liver; over 90% of all alcohol removal from the body is done by ADH.
Vomiting is part of the body's automatic defense system that is activated in order to prevent more alcohol from being absorbed.
In 2008, about 7.2% of pregnant women used alcohol.
In addition to the age 21 MLDA (minimum legal drinking age), other effective strategies for preventing underage drinking include increasing alcohol excise taxes and limiting alcohol outlet density. Youth exposure to alcohol marketing should also be reduced.
