ZBiotics Pre-Alcohol Probiotic Drink is designed to help mitigate the effects of alcohol consumption by breaking down acetaldehyde, a toxic byproduct of alcohol metabolism. Acetaldehyde is primarily responsible for the discomfort experienced after drinking. The product uses a genetically engineered probiotic, Bacillus subtilis ZB183™, which produces an enzyme similar to that of the liver, aiding in the breakdown of acetaldehyde in the gut.

The probiotic in ZBiotics is engineered to function in the gut, where acetaldehyde tends to accumulate, as the liver cannot process it there. By consuming ZBiotics before drinking, the probiotic helps enhance the gut's ability to manage acetaldehyde, potentially reducing the severity of hangovers. It is important to note that while ZBiotics aids in breaking down acetaldehyde, it does not affect intoxication levels or make alcohol consumption safer.

ZBiotics is FDA-compliant for safety and is manufactured in an FDA-registered facility. The product is designed not to alter the gut microbiome, ensuring that its effects are consistent and predictable without long-term changes to gut health. This makes ZBiotics a practical choice for those looking to enjoy alcohol responsibly while minimizing next-day discomfort.
