The statement that alcohol is one of the fastest substances absorbed by the body is true. When consumed alcohol enters the stomach, where it can be absorbed into the bloodstream. To be absorbed, alcohol moves across the epithelial cells, through the interstitial space, and into the capillaries. The alcohol molecules are very tiny and they don’t have to be broken down by digestive enzymes to get into the blood. This i the reason why alcohol is absorbed very quickly by the blood and spreads easily.
