It is well recognized that the primary alcohol, ethanol, can be absorbed unchanged along the whole length of the digestive tract, that absorption takes place rapidly from the stomach (about zo%), and most rapidly from the small gut (about 80%). T h e rate of absorption after drinking is affected by several factors, for example the volume, concentration (10-2074 solutions are most rapidly absorb...
