Drinking, Acetate, and Stress (NCT06584448)
Role of Acetate in Heavy Drinking
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
The purpose of this study is to learn how drinking alcohol affects how people experience stress and how that is affected by the body's chemistry. Specifically, the investigators will be studying relationships of drinking and a stress hormone called cortisol. The investigators believe that results will lead us to find more effective ways to help people stop or reduce drinking when participants are drinking at harmful levels.
