Alcohol and the Digestive Tract

  • Chapter
Medical and Nutritional Complications of Alcoholism

Abstract

The proximal digestive system is exposed to high concentrations of alcohol. Alcohol influences gastric secretion, and excessive alcohol intake is associated with injury to the mucosa of the stomach. Diarrhea and weight loss are also frequent manifestations of alcoholism. Alterations in the intestinal absorption of nutrients have long been suspected in alcoholics. The present chapter reports on the progress made, emphasizing the past several decades.
