According to the most recent National Survey on Drug Use and Health (NSDUH), alcohol is the drug that is used most often by high school seniors; although they cannot legally purchase alcohol, over 90% of them have tried it and almost on third of them have reported that they have had more than five drinks at one time within the past month.
Alcohol is broken down by the liver at the rate of approximately one unit per hour (a pint of normal strength beer being two units). As a result, it is possible to still be under the influence of alcohol the following morning.
Glutamate is an excitatory amino acid that is part of the transmitter systems in the brain that might be affected to produce alcohol's "intoxication"; this amino acid is located throughout the brain and can be inhibited or enhanced by different doses of alcohol.
