Holistic Hangover Recovery, Rooted in the Gut-Liver Axis

Our formulation is built on over three decades of microbiome and nutritional research, targeting the core biological systems disrupted by alcohol. Scientifically studied probiotics and prebiotics work synergistically to improve alcohol metabolism, reduce acetaldehyde levels, and reduce alcohol-induced gut barrier damage. Potent bioactives like curcumin and dihydromyricetin accelerate detoxification and protect liver cells from oxidative stress, while citrus-derived flavonoids help neutralize inflammation-driving free radicals. Together, these components help the body metabolize alcohol more efficiently, calm systemic inflammation, and restore cognitive clarity—helping you recover faster and feel better, naturally.
