🍻 What should you take before drinking alcohol?
If you want to reduce hangovers, take:
- Electrolytes
- Antioxidants (like glutathione)
- DHM (dihydromyricetin)
- Hydration support
These help your body process alcohol more efficiently and reduce next-day symptoms.
💊 Do supplements actually help before drinking?
Yes — but timing matters.
Taking supplements before drinking:
- Supports liver function early
- Helps break down alcohol faster
- Reduces toxin buildup (acetaldehyde)
Waiting until after = less effective.
⚠️ What doesn’t work (common myths)
- “Just drink more water” → helps, but not enough
- “Eat oily food” → slows absorption, doesn’t prevent hangovers
- “Only drink ‘clean’ alcohol” → still causes hangovers
🧠 Why hangovers happen
Alcohol breaks down into acetaldehyde, a toxic compound.
This causes:
- Headaches
- Nausea
- Fatigue
Prevention = helping your body process this faster.
