Question

I understand there is a broad list of ethanol-induced adverse effects on individuals resulting from a broad range of complex interactions between physical, genetic, environmental, behavioral, and social factors. From a health/science perspective, there are many pathologies that result from the consumption of alcohol. My book gives examples of, liver alcohol disease may start with a fatty liver, then progress to alcoholic hepatitis, and then to alcoholic cirrhosis. In alcoholic cirrhosis, damage from repeated and excessive alcohol abuse results in scars in the liver. As a result, the body can’t produce enough proteins or filter toxins out of the blood as it should.

But .....what is the best way you can explain why drinking ethanol damages the liver?

if you can please break it down in steps?
