DHM / Dihydromyricetin / Ampelopsin - Hanger recovery &/or alcoholism help.
When drinking, your brain is working hard to counteract the alcohol present. The alcohol consumed attaches to the GABA receptors, causing the brain to think there is more GABA in your system than usual. Since the brain believes there is more GABA present than needed, it produces less GABA itself. Because of this reaction, the next morning when the alcohol has left your system, you may experience a rebound effect that can cause anxiety, difficulty sleeping and trouble concentrating.
DHM ensures that alcohol impacts your brain’s GABA receptors as little as possible, so this reaction doesn’t happen and you don’t experience the rebound effect or hangover symptoms the next day.
Dihydromyricetin also works hard to support the liver in breaking down the toxic metabolic by-product acetaldehyde as quickly as possible. When you consume alcohol, the body breaks it down into smaller chemicals until all byproducts are eliminated completely. However, one of these chemicals is called acetaldehyde and can be 20 times more toxic itself than alcohol. High levels of acetaldehyde in your system can result in a handful of uncomfortable symptoms and increased hangover symptoms the next day. As your body gets flooded with acetaldehyde, your liver can only work so fast to get rid of it. However, DHM helps your body break down acetaldehyde much quicker so you can get back to normal even faster.
Standardised extracts are available in capsules/powder nowadays but it's been used for 1000s years for various health benefits. I think it's been approved to treat alcoholism in some non patent-loving countries. Can also help with non-alcoholic fatty liver.
Basically good shit & fairly non-toxic. Available as a supplement.
