Title: Alcohol that won't give you hangovers will be available within 5 years

Prepare to be permanently drunk in about five years' time, because a scientist is in the process of developing a synthetic alcohol which has the same merry effects as booze, but won't give you a hangover or cause liver damage.

That's literally like saying: "in five years' time you'll be able to rob banks, but you won't get arrested or punished". It's a MIRACLE.

The scientist behind 'alcosynth' - which has been named Alcarelle - is Professor David Nutt, who's director of the neuropsychopharmacology (have fun trying to say that word out loud) unit at Imperial College London. Nutt's foray into the world of synthetic alcohol grew as a result of his terrible fear that alcohol is "more harmful to society than crack", due to how freely available it is, and how harmful it can be to our health.

Speaking to the Guardian about just how dangerous he believes alcohol is, the scientist hypothesised that "if it were discovered today, it would be illegal as a foodstuff. The safe limit of alcohol, if you apply food standards criteria, would be one glass of wine a year."

That puts all your Saturday (and Sunday) morning headaches into perspective, doesn't it.

In an attempt to solve the problem of alcohol's popularity despite its detrimental effects on health, Professor Nutt has been researching and developing Alcarelle. The alcohol alternative, which the Guardian describes as "a holy grail of molecules", works by stimulating 'Gaba receptors' in your brain, just as alcohol does. When Gaba receptors are engaged, it causes the brain to calm (hence the feeling of social relaxation after a glass or two of wine).

What the scientist has created is a product that stimulates Gaba receptors, minus the damaging side effects for our livers (and our whole entire beings, when the hangover hits the next day).

The miracle invention hasn't been properly tested for safety yet, but over the next five years, Nutt and his team plan to get it properly regulated so it can be made available to a wider market.

Imagine that: a future without your head stuck down the toilet following a heavy night. The actual dream.

This miracle invention sounds like it works a lot like GHB.  Which I'm all for that being legal again.  

However, everything has a limit to when it becomes dangerous.  If people know there are no consequences long term or the next day, they will keep chasing the perfect level of drunk.......which no one ever attains before passing out, crashing into something or someone, or dying. :(

Isn't that what anti anxiety drugs do?  It sedates, get you high but doesn't leave a hang over. It causes it's own problems in time.

Not really.  I mean if you don't need them, sure you're going to feel altered and I guess you could call that high, but it's not like alcohol or pot.

Seriously, this drug describes GHB to a T in how it works.  I would not be surprised at all if it is some similar chemical structure.  The fact that so many of us that have used G recognized the similarities should tell you something about this new alcohol.

Most don't know that up until the early 90's GHB was a over the counter supplement.  Most don't know that in Europe GHB is actually used to treat alcoholism.....at least it was back in the 90's.  Not sure about currently with all of the "date rape" hype bullshit.

Most also don't know that a form of GHB is sold here, although it's damn near impossible to get it prescribed which really fucking sucks because it is the best sleep ever, and the alternatives they give a person suck and are dangerous AF.  https://www.fda.gov/drugs/drugsafety/ucm537281.htm

A "Cupful"?   that's insane or do you mean a cap?

That's still a truckload at one time of good ghb....enough to put most into a coma and kill some.  When my old friend made it in the 90's he would put it into emptied out 16 or 32 oz plastic water bottles.  Two of the twist off caps on those would have me feeling way chill, or put me to sleep at night, and I used about 16oz every 10-14 days depending on if I took it with to go out.  Usually, it was supplied by the guy that was a huge steroid/pot/X dealer in that circle so it was pretty much all me consuming that bottle. 

Are you sure you aren't confusing that big of a dose with GBL?  The cup you posted would be about right for that.

GBL = the shit that they used to sell @ nutrition stores Che.

Look at the size of the bottle caps on those bottles.  They are about the size of the measuring cup you posted.  Now grab a 16 oz bottled water or of your favorite soda.  A dose for each is a "capful".....you tell me which one is more powerful?

I've used the yellow one on the left in that pic, and it was pretty good.....,but it is not GHB good.

BTW, my old friend that used to be the big juice/pot/X dealer got his hands on the shit from Europe one time.  It comes in a pink powder, and you just take one of those little mini mini scoops like you get with some powdered vitamins....that shit was incredible!  We just took one scoop, cuz we were afraid of it and it wasn't in English, but it was super chillaxing and then euphoric when we started pounding the booze.
