The enzyme ADH that metabolizes ethanol depletes NAD+ and increases NADH. NADH stimulates fatty acid synthesis. NAD+ is needed for β-oxidation of the fat. This causes fat to accumulate in the hepatocytes. | The enzyme ADH that metabolizes ethanol depletes NAD+ and increases NADH. NADH stimulates fatty acid synthesis.
