Alcohol is metabolised to ATP and unused ATP will of course be stored as glycogen later. When glycogen storage are full, fat is deposited. Glucose is needed + ATP. High Protein intake will lead to gluconeogensis and create the glucose.
- User23 4y agoPlease link to a metabolic ward study showing ethanol observably being converted into bodyfat through a glycogenesis to lipogenesis pathway. I only found ones saying it never happened, so I’m very interested in any counter example.
- kbenson 4y agoYou just went from answering someone that asked you for a source with "I’m not interested in being an unpaid research assistant" to asking someone else "please link to a metabolic ward study showing..." in the same thread. Maybe people would feel a bit more generous with their time if you were willing to do the same?
