Actual (reported)College drinking associated with sporting events is characterized by excess alcohol, along with food intake, over the duration of hours has the potential to cause a build up of fat in the liver. Fatty liver can increase blood glucose concentrations leading to a prediabetes like state. The present study will determine how overweight men respond to the over-consumption of alcohol/food to identify which characteristics might protect some men from fatty liver, while others might be more susceptible to this condition. The goal of this work is to determine the direct impact of alcohol/food intake to cause acute fatty liver through the stimulation of de novo lipogenesis in 20 overweight, healthy men. Understanding individual susceptibility to alcohol-induced fatty liver will aid in the development of strategies designed to help people mitigate these risks. Hypothesis is that 5h excess consumption of alcohol and food will increase liver triglycerides by 4% or more, in comparison to fasting state.

Actual (reported)Liver triglycerides
Liver fat will be measured twice in each subject via magnetic resonance spectroscopy, blood will be drawn hourly and metabolites will be measured enzymatically.
will be measured before (fasting) and after 5 hours of alcohol consumption
All subjects will be under the same protocol which is eating and drinking on one afternoon.
