Swedish Scientists Have a ‘Pre-Drinking’ Pill – Screamin’ Scott

They can put a man on the moon but science can’t cure the common hangover till now. Years go by and I wonder if they could come with a magic pill to stop the dreaded feeling you get after a night of celebration with friends.

Now Swedish doctors have it allegedly solved with pro-biotics. No wonder pill is going to cure everything if you wake up next to someone who you don’t remember their name. This pill would take the sting out of the alcohol before the toxins reach the liver. This also doesn’t mean you can go hog wild on a drinking binge. This is to help in moderation make you feel at least a little bit better. 

And one last point to make, don’t use the one-liner, “Don’t worry I’m on the pill” or “This will make you a better driver.” Please always remember not to drink and drive. Call a cab or Uber.

"Pre-drinking" pill uses probiotics to break down alcohol before alcohol reaches the liver

Swedish probiotic company de Faire Medical (Stockholm) is bringing its pre-drinking dietary supplement, Myrkl, to the U.S. market. The supplement first launched in the UK. It contains trademarked probiotic strain AB001, described as a "mix of proprietary high-performing bacteria enriched with L-cysteine and vitamin B12."
