Hangover Free Synthetic Alcohol In Development

Imagine going out for drinks and not having to worry about waking up the next day with dry mouth, headache, or nausea.

This is the goal for Imperial College London's director of the neuropsychopharmacology unit, David Nutt.

Nutt has been working to develop 90 compounds that will make you feel tipsy but won’t give you the hangover effect the next day.

This synthetic creation, Alcarelle, has Nutt eager to see how the industry will use the alcohol, saying "The drinks industry employs really creative people."

The director originally predicted that his synthetic alcohol would replace traditional alcohol by 2050, but it looks like we could be drinking it in the next five years.
