It’s Almost Here, Carolinas Ready For A New Alcohol That Causes No Hangover
There’s a company in London working on a synthetic alcohol. If you drink at all chances are you have had a hangover. This is exciting news. It’s almost here, ready for a new alcohol that causes no hangover.
Oddity Central states, “London-based GABA Labs is working on a type of synthetic alcohol called ‘Alcarelle’ which reportedly provides the relaxing effects of alcohol without hangovers, balance deficiencies, or any of its other negative side effects.”
A spokesperson for GABA Labs explained what people trying it can expect. They said, “It feels like what a glass of wine feels like. It feels relaxing. It makes you a bit more chatty, a bit more socially engaged with people.” They add, “We know where in the brain alcohol has its ‘good’ effects and ‘bad’ effects, and what particular receptors mediate that – Gaba, glutamate and other ones, such as serotonin and dopamine. The effects of alcohol are complicated but … you can target the parts of the brain you want to target.”
They say Alcarelle is a tasteless substance that can be added to other drinks. So you can put in any kind of drink. It doesn’t need to be an alcoholic drink. That’s great news because we know alcoholic drinks are not good for you. If people could get their ‘fix’ from synthetic alcohol without suffering damage to their liver, heart, brain, etc., that could potentially save millions of lives.
So get ready Carolinas for a new type of alcohol that causes no hangovers. They hope to launch the product by 2026.
11 Country Artists Who Don't Drink Alcohol
It seems that the Country music industry and alcohol almost go hand in hand. With so many songs about drinking, partying and having an all-around good time, it really isn’t a big surprise.
But, as Lady A’s Charles Kelley begins his journey towards sobriety, the topic has been top of mind.
“I want to thank everyone who has shown me so much support and encouragement so far on my journey of sobriety,” Kelly said in a recent Instagram post. “Y’alls kind words have meant the world to me and really lifted me up over the past few weeks. I can’t wait to get back on the road with Lady A next year.”
That got us thinking about which other country stars don’t drink. There aren’t necessarily a lot of examples of people who are open about it in the industry, but there definitely are a few.
One notable example is Keith Urban, who has been very open about his struggles with addiction to drugs and alcohol many times in the past.
“I’ve nothing against drugs or alcohol. Everyone does what they want to do to have a great time,” Urban said in an article by The Times U.K. “I just realized I’m allergic to it. Someone said, ‘You have an allergy? What happens when you drink?’ And I said, ‘I break out in cuffs.'”
Here is a list of 11 other country artists that go against the grain and choose not to drink alcohol.
