Prickly Pear…The Natural Hangover Cure*
Did you have a little too much fun last night? Do you have a headache? Is your mouth dry, and are you nauseous? Do you wish you could sleep the day away? You are probably experiencing a hangover from too much alcohol! However, we have good news! One way to naturally minimize the impact of a hangover is to consume 2 oz. nochtli® Recover SuperiorFruit, which is made from 99% pureed prickly pear!
The scientific explanation for symptoms related to a hangover involves alcohol triggering inflammation in the body; the body breaking down alcohol into toxic waste; and the liver’s ability to only process a limited amount of toxins. In addition, all of the below combined trigger “hangover” like symptoms.
· Inflammation. Alcohol can induce gut inflammation that can lead to inflammation throughout the body, such as liver and brain.
· Immune System. Alcohol consumption makes it more difficult for the immune system to protect the body against harmful germs.
· Blood Sugar. Alcohol causes blood sugars to drop. When the liver is busy metabolizing alcohol, it is unable to release sugar to stabilize falling blood sugar levels.
· Dehydration. Drinking alcohol increases the frequency of urination which can lead to dehydration.

A study conducted at Tulane Health Science Center included 55 young adults who volunteered and participated in a double-blind, prickly pear/placebo-controlled hangover trial. Each volunteer ingested either prickly pear or an identical placebo 5 hours before alcohol consumption. The participants were then asked to consume 1.75g of alcohol per every pound of their weight during a 4-hour period. The same test was conducted twice within a two-week period. Overall findings suggested that prickly pear reduces hangover symptoms by 50%!
