  • Genetics: Alcoholism is a complex health issue. Therefore, there are likely to be many genes involved in increasing a person's risk for alcoholism. Scientists are searching for these genes, and have found areas on chromosomes where they are probably located. Powerful new techniques may permit researchers to identify and measure the specific contribution of each gene to the complex behaviors associated with heavy drinking. This research will provide the basis for new medications to treat alcohol-related problems.
  • Alcohol mixes easily with body fat so that it can effectively penetrate almost all organs of the body. However, alcohol mixes most easily with water, meaning that alcohol concentrations will be highest in the blood (which is over 90%water) after drinking.
