With regards to the possible mechanism by which fructose accelerates ethanol metabolism, a literature review indicates a possible shift in the metabolism of fructose in the presence of alcohol. This shift has been linked to the production in the liver of NAD+ which facilitates alcohol oxidation. Therefore, in the presence of alcohol, the metabolism of fructose in the liver is diverted from NAD+ to NADH requiring pathways, which in turn generates the NAD+ needed for alcohol oxidation<ref>Agro Food Industry hi tech Sep-Oct2009, Vol. 20 No.5; Fructose and its effect on alcohol elimination from blood following alcohol consumption; Fernando Schved</ref>.
