What clears acetaldehyde?
Acetaldehyde is removed from the body primarily by oxidation to acetate via a number of NAD-linked aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) enzymes. There are nineteen known ALDHs in humans, but only a few of them appear to be involved in acetaldehyde oxidation. There are many analogous enzymes in other organisms.
