About Last Night

No I don't work for Cheerz but I wish I did--and had stock options. Instead of claims there's science behind it. It says to take a 1 oz shot for every 3 or so drinks. I take 3 and am set for the nite. No cravings for more booze, bloody marys, greasy junk food or bong hits the next day. Maybe just a little tired. I drink beer so take it straight but when bars realize they can mix this right in drinks and do something good instead of jacking people's heart rate with Red Bull this stuff is gonna blow up big time.

The stuff works, simple as that. As for the question about the science, from their web site:

Succinicate: Helps reduce the effects of acetaldehyde by activating the second half-cycle of tricarboxylic acids to help accelerate the decomposition of acetaldehyde and the energization of the oxidation processes in the mitochondria, and has been shown to bolster the immune system and stimulate neural system recovery.

L-glutamine and N-acetyl cysteine: Alcohol inhibits the availability of glucose through an insulin-mediated mechanism. L-Glutamine and N-acetyl cysteine contain a sulfhydryl group effective in scavenging acetaldehyde and to help the liver manufacture glutathione, one of the body's most important naturally occurring antioxidants and detoxifiers.

Milk thistle (silymarin): A powerful proven blood and liver antioxidant that scavenges free radicals that can damage the liver and helps protect liver cells (and other cells in the body and brain) from toxicity.

Right. Hangovers can't be cured. But they CAN be prevented, if you don't fall for repackaged vitamins and take something with some practical science behind it. If of course you can get past your irrational paranoia. Maybe quit drinking for awhile and let what's left of your brain heal. Enjoy your hangover.

Sorry for the double post, I could be drunk right now???

I own a wine company and casual sipping takes a sideline to "break out the wine bong" more often than not. XS Energy Drinks have provided the best morning after remedy that I have found since the hair of the dog, do it all over again plan. A friend told me its from all the B-12.

i was googling anti-hangover remedies and found this article:

http://www.just-drinks.com/article.aspx?id=92343

it's about cheerz and how people anti-drinking freak-outs are condeming it because it'll make people drink more, apparently. if you don't want to register for the site (i'm gonna get junk mail now), here's some excerpts:
A product launched in the US which claims to reduce the effects of a hangover has been condemned by proponents of sensible consumption and marketing of alcohol.



The new product, called IntelliShot, is described as a "liquid supplement that helps naturally flush alcohol's most toxic metabolite".



IntelliShot's producer, a Las Vegas-based company called Cheerz USA, claims that the 45ml lemon-lime flavoured shot, which can be drunk straight or as a mixer, contains a blend of powerful immune system boosters and super-antioxidants "clinically proven to help naturally reduce and eliminate acetaldehyde, a powerful muscle poison created as the body breaks down alcohol in the liver".

Peter Duff, chairman of Alcohol in Moderation, an international body which aims to promote the responsible consumption of alcohol and which is supported by drinks companies, told just-drinks he was "shocked" by the idea of such a product, adding that by offering to alleviate the effects of a hangover it was encouraging binge-drinking and went counter to the industry's message of advocating responsible consumption.

I think that's an interesting debate. does anybody actually think that reducing hangovers will cause people to drink more ? they should write an article on that.

Before you go to bed Drink as much warm salt water as you can over the toilet and thow it up. that cleans everything out...it has always worked for me....NO HANGOVER

Interesting that there is such a lack of solid research on this problem. I persoanlly think the majority of hangover is due to the depletion of water in the blood due to the action of the kidneys in removing the toxic byproducts of achohol metabolism When it is depleted below a certain level the kidneys are unable to continue the cleansing function and these toxins remain in the blood. As a result, you endure a slow and damaging 'poisoning' until these fluids are replaced. As well, the depletion of the fluids depletes certain ceral-spinal fluids adding to the resulting pain.

That is why I've always found plenty of water during and shortly after drinking and perhaps an apsirin to be the best defense against this malady..

The next morning I suck down an XS Krakoosh Rootbeer and it really turns my day around. When slouching on the couch is not an option, hit the Krakoosh Rootbeer and feel the difference. I think between the B-vitamins for the boost and and the carbonation for the stomachache, it really can turn your day around so you can play through those endless night after night holiday festivites...Check it out...and the stuff taste great, not like those other energy drinks that leave a medicine or vitamin taste in your mouth.

What Ms. Raymond says about alcohol's effects on the body are accurate. There are however, products that do help your body process alcohol more efficiently while protecting against the damage that does occur. View drinkinmate.com and discover a product that works. You will NEVER drink any amount of alcohol again without it,

I must agree, bonghits have long since been a reliable remedy for a hangover. They help easy the pain of the headache, settle the stomach naseu, and increase your appetite for a greasy breakfast burrito. I also recommend a red beer or bloody mary - Like the article said, your body doesn't like you taking away the alcohol so fast.

I must agree with BigPaws23 - Bonghits have long since been a reliable source of hangover remedy; easing the pain of the headache, settling stomach naseau, and increasing the appetite. I usually like to wash down my bonghit with a red beer or bloody mary as well - Like the article said, your body is not happy that you took all the alcohol away so suddenly.

I have always found bong hits to be a very reliable and enjoyable hangover remedy. Anyone else?

Believe? I have been suffering from migraines for 16 years. I happenstanced to aleve a hangover with imitrex. Why not pass on the information?
