I read that alcohol dehydrogenase enzymes are what help you process alcohol and after years of drinking you develop a deficiency in these enzymes, therefore making your tolerance higher (you need to drink more to get the same “drunk” feeling).

My question is: Why can’t we just medically raise our levels of these enzymes back up to where they used to be, or even higher, so that we get drunk faster and therefore drink less?

Likewise, why isn’t there a treatment for alcoholism that tries to balance this enzyme to a “normal” level in order to more normalize someone’s drinking habits?
to answer the first reply, acetaldehyde dehydrogenase will detoxify acetaldehyde to acetic acid. Is that still as fatal?
