Low doses of alcohol substantially decrease glucose metabolism in the human brain
2006
NeuroImage
Moderate doses of alcohol decrease glucose metabolism in the human brain, which has been interpreted to reflect alcohol-induced decreases in brain activity. ...
Here, we measure the effects of two relatively low doses of alcohol (0.25 g/kg and 0.5 g/kg, or 5 to 10 mM in total body H 2 O) on glucose metabolism in the human brain. ...
This research was also supported in part by the Intramural Research Program of the NIH, National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism. ...

Ethanol impairs glucose uptake by human astrocytes and neurons: protective effects of acetyl-L-carnitine
2011
International Journal of Physiology, Pathophysiology and Pharmacology
Our results indicate that ethanol exposure decreases the uptake of D-(2-(3)H)-glucose by human astrocytes and neurons. ...
These findings suggest that deprivation of glucose in brain cells contributes to neurotoxicity in alcohol abusers, and highlights ALC as a potential therapeutic agent to prevent the deleterious health ...

Nutritional Ketosis as a Potential Treatment for Alcohol Use Disorder
2021
Frontiers in Psychiatry
Several findings suggest that during alcohol intoxication there is a shift from glucose to acetate metabolism that is enhanced in individuals with AUD. ...
Here, we review evidence for nutritional ketosis as a potential means to reduce withdrawal and alcohol craving. We also review the underlying mechanisms of action of ketosis. ...
ACKNOWLEDGMENTS We would like to thank the late Dr. Richard Veech for his lasting contributions to the field of nutritional ketosis. ...
