Bubbly Prevents Hangovers


If you occasionally find yourself waking up with a hangover the next morning, there is hope. Scientists have found that a few glasses of bubbly might prevent this. Research at a university in Korea found that infusing alcohol with oxygen allowed drinkers to sober up quicker. By boosting the oxygen levels in drinks actually cut the time it took to clear the alcohol from subjects’ systems by 10% – 20%. The oxygen-enriched versions reduced plasma alcohol concentrations faster, thus speeding up the trip back to normality with less side effects. It’s not yet certain how exactly this added oxygen would affect the taste of typical drinks but they figure it can easily be done. Alright!
