Hangover Clinic

The French call it "wood mouth." Germans refer to is as "wailing of the cats." Spaniards call it "backlash." Most English speakers call it "hangover." No matter what you call it, it's a lousy feeling. But why should a pleasurable experience such as drinking cause so much pain? The main reason is congeners.

Congeners are the byproducts of the fermentation process that give alcoholic beverages their aroma, color and flavor. When congeners enter your bloodstream, your immune system eliminates them by releasing proteins called cytokines. This surge of cytokines causes inflammation leading to headache, nausea and body aches. This powerful reaction to alcoholic beverages can turn a night of celebration into a morning of misery. But Chaser attracts and absorbs congeners before they can do their damage helping you wake up refreshed.

Please drink responsibly. Never drink and drive.
