Approximately 5% total, and that includes not only breath and urine, but sweat, tears, saliva, breast milk and all other forms of excretion, plus non-oxidative
metabolism as well. The vast majority (~95%) has to be physically metabolized (broken down) through oxidation first to acetaldehyde,
then to acetic acid. This occurs primarily in the liver through the enzymes alcohol dehydrogenase
(ADH) and aldehyde dehyrdogenase
(ALDH). A small amount of ADH activity occurs in the stomach while the alcohol is still being absorbed
