Hi guys,
I have developed a formula to combat hangovers after about a month or so of trial and error/research and it is working pretty well yet I think it could be improved and would really appreciate some help!
The general idea around the formula is to increase glutathione levels, dilate blood vessels and rehydrate before and after drinking to help someone wake up feeling much better than usual after a night out.
NAC is subbed for L-Cysteine HCI in the post drinking dose due to reports (and first hand experience) of a pro-oxidative effect after ethanol consumption
http://www.ncbi.nlm....pubmed/16439183
I was just wondering if anyone would change this formula at all and also if anyone knew if L-cysteine had the same pro-oxidative effect as NAC does after ethanol consumption, I have not been able to find any literature or reports indicating that it does but the verdict remains open.
I appreciate any help or advice!
Cheers
