With the Christmas festivities now well underway, many will be hoping and praying for a miraculous hangover cure after some boozy days. Mirror reporter Ariane Sohrabi-Shiraz tried the new £1 pill that apparently prevents a hangover by breaking down the alcohol in your gut quickly.
The new product, Myrkl, is the 'first formula in human history to show promising results of breaking down alcohol effectively in the gut before it reaches the liver'. Containing vitamin B12, it is said that the pill will 'make sure you feel fresh the next day', with a 75% satisfaction rate in an independent survey of customers.
A peer-review study found that Myrkl broke down up to 70% of alcohol within 60 minutes, and 50% after 30 minutes of consumption. Swedish company claim this 'pre-drinking pill' is all you need, recommending that you take two of the pills between two and 12 hours before drinking alcohol, allowing you to drink without looming anticipation of a hangover.
