A blood test analysing your 'genes' will show 100% positive if you have the mutated gene or not, which indicates hereditary/genetic hemochromatosis.

What happens to albumin strands in an egg when heated?
the albumin is a protein, and the shape of this protein chanegs when it is heated (scientists call this the protein denaturing). You can think of it like this: If you have a strand of uncooked spaghetti, and you heat it, it changes shape and goes from being staight and hard to not being able to stand itself upright and able to be bent. Proteins are normally all jumbled up, and when they get denatured, they tend to straighten out, like the oppisate of what happened with the spaghetti.

Update: I just tied soaking my previously unusable "readers" in a glass with a few drops of Soft Scrub Gel With Bleach overnight. The foul odor seems to be gone. Also the plastic lenses are beautifully clean. Incidentally, the Soft Scrub does wonders for my metallic thermos coffee pot which I never could keep clean. Just put a small squeeze in and fill it up. Soak over night and rinse. Water will "bead up" on the clean surface once you rinse the pot out. NO need to scrub.

How fast does your body heal after stopping alcohol?
It can take up to two years for whatever healing is going to happen. Sometimes, one never gets completely back to normal physically or neurologically, depending on the damage caused by the drinking. Things definitely improve noticeably in a couple of months, especially with therapy and support. Addition: Your cancer risk and brain damage are permanently up. You liver can take up to 8 years to fully heal depending on how heavily you hammered it, but such a long time is unlikely. Resuming drinking will raise your cancer risk and brain damage further, these factors may lessen over time but will never heal. Your liver will so long as there is no cirrhosis. I drink all the time and so do most of my family. We mostly live a decent life span. Your susceptibility is in the genes I'm afraid and there is no "how drunk can j00z g3t" clinic available yet ;)
