Chaser - stops hangovers... but does it stop the infamous red face?

Here is the product:
http://www.doublechaser.com/

It claims to stop hangovers by absorbing toxins. Some people, when they drink (usually asians), like myself, turn bloody red. This is due to our inability to break down the toxins in alcohol, thus it's like drinking poison. Does anyone know if this Chaser product prevents this?

EDIT:
I guess the general question I'm asking is does anyone know how to stop the red face thing?

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Chaser = Charcoal

Charcoal basicly soaks up whatevers in the alcohol. So you don't get a hang over or vomit if you drink too much. I guess it would stop you from getting red faced since it soaks up the toxins like it clames too. Also I would sugest to save some money, just buy normal charcoal tablets at the health food store. They do the same thing....

Shit, if you want to avoid a hangover just drink water while you're drinking. A hangover is simply dehydration.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Isn't taking any forms of drugs while drinking really horrible to your liver?

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

I've had to take something that that twice, once because of alcohol posining from ingesting to much alcohol(duh?) and the other time... um, yah something about almost O.D.ing on pills of some sort, don't remember it very well. ^^;;;

I was speaking idiomatically.

I consider myself a very well-versed authority on hangovers. I get them all the time. The double chaser has been around for a while and I decided to give it a shot to see how it matches up to, say... a 6-pack in the morning or narcotic-induced sleep.

I was actually rather surprised at how well it worked. However, it also struck me as rather strange to have to be taking a chaser after every other drink you ingest. Not only is it an inconvenience, cumbersome and just downright awkward for the regular drinker; there's always the possibility that, you know, you'll get drunk and forget to pour the pill down the hatch with your next drink.

I know drunks. I'm one of them. This is not how we roll.

In addition, they taste like ASS. It's gross. Just fucking watch what you're doing and it should be fine. If you're going to get THAT shitfaced you should have a plan in place so you don't have to go to work the next day or something.

I guess I'm lucky that I just don't get hungover unless I almost drink to the point of alcohol poisoning.

My plan is always the same. Simply have a support group 6-pack ready and waiting to nurse you back to health before you go to work/family reunion/church.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

Alternatively, you could go there without the morning pickme up, vomit all over the boss/mother/bibles and totally not have to worry about going to any of that boring shit ever again.

The first step is admitting you have a problem, Encephalon.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Charcoal will not kill your liver on it if you take it while drinking (it's suposed to soak up the alcohol, which alone injures your liver). For charcoal is just ash and not a drug. Posion control centers and vets give it to people/pets if they injest posions. It has the same effect when used when you drink alcohol. As I said....all Chaser is is charcoal with some added calcium.

Hair of the dog. Sometimes the best cure for a hangover is drinking some of what made you drunk. It's a nauseating thought, but doing so will either shock the hangover off of you, or cause you to puke out the toxins. It's worked for me in the past.

But I DO have a problem. I admit it and therefore I don't have a problem. I know that it's an imploding fallacy at best, but it gets me by.

On the contrary, a hangover is merely withdrawal symptoms from the socially acceptable drug that is alcohol. Withdrawal symptoms are usually cured best by getting your fix again. So what better way to "fix" your withdrawal symptoms than giving your body more of the same drug you were taking the night before?

Or just drink lots of water.

How ya doing, buddy?

Red face is a prerequisite for being Asian.

How ya doing, buddy?

Amen.

A hangover is a combination of dehydration, low blood sugar and alcohol withdrawl. That's why the best cure for one is a huge greasy fry-up and a load of alcopops.

Actually, the best cure for a hangover is two double bloody marys made with chilli vodka and plenty of tobasco and worcestershire sauce and a pint of stella in very quick succession. Nothing sorts you out quicker than that.

As for the red face thing, it's caused by high blood pressure. Try cutting down your salt and fat intake and get some exercise once in a while.

Oh, so that's how it works. I'll be honest in saying that I only made a partially-educated guess as to why drinking the same thing again helps you. Thanks for the clarification. Good to know we have a hangover scholar . ^_^

Really? Then I must be hanging out with the wrong asians. None of them turns red when drinking. -_-

I'm asian and my face won't turn red when i'm drinking :P... so...

Clearly you're both Mexican, then.

If I did get this 'red face' I would blame it on a fuckedup sunburn, some sort of excuse that seems to work.
