Synthehol is here ! Or rather, alcohol that gets you drunk but won't harm your liver or give you a hangover...
Which likely means a lot more drunk people a lot more of the time.
A scientist has developed a new type of alcohol which he claims will not damage the liver or leave you with a hangover. 'Alcosynth' is made from synthesised chemicals, and been formulated by Professor David Nutt from Imperial College, London. He told BBC 5 live's Emma Barnett that his new product "avoids targeting the liver" which would erase your hangover.

ReplyDeleteCiro Villa When this is released I predict an awesome week-long party, immediately followed by the end of civilisation.
ReplyDeleteEither it's alcohol or it's not. We understand how ethanol is metabolised. Three routes through the liver. Ethanol give you acetaldehyde and methanol gives you formaldehyde and will first blind and then kill you. That's down the ADH -> ALDH pathway. Alcoholics have two other pathways. Pointless going down all that - I smell bollocks.
