So it has, 0 carbohydrates, 0 fats etc but calories are still sky high. Obviously it's better to drink for dieiting in comparison to things like beer, but are these calories burnt off extremeley quickly as there are no carbs or fats?
Thanks.

The first step in the metabolism of alcohol is the oxidation of ethanol to acetaldehyde catalyzed by alcohol/dehydrogenase containing the coenzyme NAD+.Originally Posted by Andrewj91
The acetaldehyde is then oxidized to acetic acid and finally CO2 and water through the citric acid cycle.

Alcohol metabolism (moderate consumption) for dummies
............NAD+ -->NADH.................................NAD+--->NADH
Ethanol ---------------------> Acetaldehyde -----------------------------> Acetate--------->acetyl-CoA
...........Alcohol Dehydrogenase.......................Acetaldehyde Dehydrogenase
Hmm that does not look like how I wanted it to look
