The science behind Hangover

3 minuty čtení

You already know that we like to play an open game. And the Hangover product is no different. Come see under the hood of the hangover miracle!

Mindflow Hangover contains 11 natural substances and extracts that help prevent hangovers. You can find which ingredients they are and in what quantity directly in the product details . In this article, we will focus on what the individual substances help with and why we mixed them into the product. None of the folders are there by chance.

Links to the studies are provided at the end of the article.

1. Decomposition of acetaldehyde

Acetaldehyde, the main cause of hangovers , is formed from ethanol. We focused on acetaldehyde in several substances contained in the capsule. The pulp extract accelerates its metabolism and the body gets rid of it faster. Attention! However, the metabolism of ethanol does not speed up, so the alcohol does not break down faster.

In addition to faster breakdown of acetaldehyde, we also think about its effects. The combination of L-cysteine and vitamin B1 protects the organism from its negative effects.

2. Sugar regulation

Alcohol can cause hypoglycemia (low blood glucose), which is manifested by general weakness and headache. It often occurs in people on a low-carb diet or in people who haven't eaten enough before drinking alcohol. Siberian ginseng helps regulate blood sugar levels.

3. Acidification of the organism

During the breakdown of ethanol, substances are created that overacidify the organism. Altered pH in the body can cause mischief especially when it comes to metabolic processes. What with this? A trio of minerals , magnesium, zinc and selenium helps to increase the pH and thus easily copes with the problem.

4. The immune system

One of the main causes of an unpleasant hangover is the changes in the immune system that occur after consuming alcohol. We thought about that too. According to a study, a highly concentrated prickly pear extract reduces CRP to normal values during a hangover . The aforementioned selenium and zinc also lend a helping hand.

5. Body balance and headache

Alcohol, or the ethanol contained in it, disrupts the balance of many substances in the body. For example, the well-known hangover headache is due to an increased concentration of serotonin, histamine and a lack of magnesium ions in the brain. Vitamin B6 helps the hormonal system to function properly , and the bioavailable form of magnesium in turn replenishes ions and helps to avoid headaches . Sounds great, don't you think?

6. Antioxidants

While you are enjoying a sweet dream, a lot of free radicals are produced in your body the night after consuming alcohol. And our old familiar ethanol is to blame. What with this? This would quickly turn glutathione into a major antioxidant. However, it cannot be taken directly, as it would break down in the stomach.

We have dealt with this as well. We added L-cysteine (precursor of glutathione) and the already mentioned substances selenium and zinc to the composition, which play an important role in the formation of glutathione.

7. Protection of the organism

While we humans enjoy indulging in alcohol, our livers are not so thrilled about it. That's why we also added milk thistle with silymarin. It helps the protection and proper functioning of the liver. Our product therefore helps to protect the organism in the long term.

8. Quality of sleep

Alcohol shortens the REM sleep phase and reduces the depth of NREM sleep. In layman's terms - your sleep is worse and the body does not have the opportunity to regenerate properly . To make matters worse, drinking in the evening weakens the production of melatonin (the sleep hormone). We thought of that too and hid a good amount of high-quality magnesium in the form of glycinate in Hangover. With its action, it beautifully supports sleep and increases its quality.

So now you know everything about Hangover from A to Z. It's time to pick up your ticket to a hangover-free morning !
