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.
Animal research suggests that brain cells destroyed by long-time exposure to alcohol can be reversed when the animal is abstinent from alcohol; this finding appear to contradict the long-held belief that brain cells, once destroyed, cannot live again.
