Just when you thought canned drinks couldn't get any lamer, here comes Alcohol Killer!
http://www.alcoholkiller.com/

'ALCOHOL KILLER® is unique healthy refresher based on pour natural base without any artificial colours, stabilizers or chemical preservation.'
'It is THE REAL ANTI-ALCOHOL DRINK with delicious refreshing taste - light sweet with gentle cirus taste. It is fantastic when it is slithly chilled and it is still tasty, refreshing and killing your thirst even when it is warm.'
'ALCOHOL KILLER® is a rare beverage with excellent refreshing taste, which helps to reduce alcohol in the organism and helps to protect you from negative effects of alcohol'

I happened to see a can of this in a shop here and just had to find out more! :p
The website has to be one of the silliest i have seen in a while, particularly as they seem to be serious about it all. I still can't work out what half of the site says, it has some of the oddest English i have read. And it promises to be good for just about everything except killing alcohol! :confused:
'Our drink is NOT a miracle drink, that lets the alcohol disappear in a second!'

Does the world really need another overhyped soft drink?!?
Especially one that saves us from evil! :rolleyes:

.:Easily:.

Although the name is completely ridiculous, I can see why this product would sell, particularly if you have some hottie with you and you need to sober up (see pic - very sexual piece of advertising) :)


I checked the ingredients and its basically a mixture of specific nutrients (B vitamins, essential amino acids etc) that are used in the metabolism of alcohol.

However, that graph they proudly bandy around has to be impossible/fuged - theres nothing that can sober you up that fast (water is one of the best ways to sober-up, due to the chemistry of water).

hoorah, hoorah!

I was left contemplating my own existence until this ingenious product was launched upon the earth to save us all...:rolleyes:

Although, now that i think about it, there is a drink that has saved us all, it has been around for hundreds of years...

bEeR!

Anyway - did you buy it? whats it taste like? will you buy it again?

Spill the beans!

"Straighten up", in a manner of speaking ;)


I checked the ingredients and its basically a mixture of specific nutrients (B vitamins, essential amino acids etc) that are used in the metabolism of alcohol.

However, that graph they proudly bandy around has to be impossible/fuged - theres nothing that can sober you up that fast (water is one of the best ways to sober-up, due to the chemistry of water).
No reputable study I have ever heard of has come up with a way to increase the rate at which the body metabolizes alcohol (and many, many, many have tried). The chemistry of water is irrelevant - once the alcohol is in your system it is absorbed throught the tissues at the same rate regardless of the very minor amount of dilution you can pour in. So drinking lots of water makes absolutely *no* difference at all to the rate at which your body will absorb alcohol at all.[/QUOTE]

That website is weird, it is like a really dodgy dodgy translator wrote it, on second thoughts it probably was a dodgy translator doing it.
