Immediately, alcohol is absorbed into the blood stream via the stomach and small intestine. From there, alcohol moves towards the liver where it begins transforming to a toxic byproduct called acetaldehyde. This compound is linked to fatigue, flushing, and cellular stress. It takes one hour for the body to breakdown one drink.
Elyxr supports early detoxification using L-Cysteine (glutathione precursor), zinc, vitamin B3 and DHM (active compound from Hovenia Dulcis) to enhance alcohol metabolism.
Addtionally, Elyxr prepares the body against the inflammatory onslaught and liver cell stress with vitamin C, curcumin, piperine and milk thistle and prickly pear.
Furthermore, our supplement pre-emptively supports the stomach with ginger against alcohol's stomach irritation.
In other words, the pre-capsules are providing a biochemical "shield".

Considered to be a moderate drinking amount, the liver is operating near its maximum alcohol metabolising capacity; resulting in acetaldehyde build up.
Additionally, there are signs of gastritis (stomach lining inflammation), increased adenonsine activity (feeling drowsy), disruptions in the gut, release of stress hormones (cortisol and adrenaline) and increased inflammatory response to the organ stress.
Elyxr continues to address acetaldehyde build up with L-cysteine by binding to the toxicity to remove it. The formulation addresses energy challenges with B vitamins, gut lining support with zinc and the surmounting inflammatory response with the herbal extracts.

This level of consumption places the brain under profound suppression, causing pronounced motor impairment, mood swings, memory loss, poor reflexes, potential blackouts and signs of alcohol poisoning.
Internally, glutathione (master antioxidant) is nearing depletion, dehydration is peaking, vomiting occurs from gastrointestinal distress, and the immune system is on high alert from multiple insults. These include alcohol-induced tissue damage, acetaldehyde modifications and endotoxins from gut bacteria penetrating the gut lining.
At this stage, Elyxr's pre-capsules are working in overdrive and nearing the end of its' effectiveness considering the number of drinks.

THE SLEEP STORY

Alcohol fragments your sleep architecture; poor REM sleep (brain development), reduces melatonin (sleep regulating hormone) and increases cortisol (stress hormone) and inflammation during the night.
However, that "drowsiness" from earlier in that night begins to wear off as GABA rebounds and causes an excitatory response, which leads to poorer sleep quality, feelings of wakefulness during the night and vivid dreams.
Even more concerning, the drop in blood alcohol levels during the second half of the night triggers a fight-or-flight response in your body, causing racing heart rate, tremors and anxiety during the early morning hours - hangxiety.
While all of this is occurring, alcohol is still being eliminated, so the oxidative stress and inflammatory response linger and often become more enhanced during this period. So when you wake up, you've got a nasty hangover.
Elyxr's post capsules are designed to tackle those morning pathologies. L-theanine for brain activity modulation and apigenin (chamomile extract) for reducing anxiety to promote a deeper and calmer sleep.
Furthermore, magnesium glycinate for neuromuscular relaxation and sleep, taurine for water balancing, zinc carnosine for stomach support, prickly pear and L-glutamine for immunity support, vitamin E for antioxidants, and vitamin Bs for energy and mood recovery.

It's not surprising you wake up closer to baseline with Elyxr.

Elyxr's dual phase, 6 capsule format is formulated intentionally - dosages backed by science.

We understand what's happening to your biology while you celebrate and when you sleep are completely different.

We studied and considered how profound the impact of alcohol is on your biochemistry, so we didn't take any chances and dosed each ingredient specifically to the research. Any less, would be a disservice to your body.
