"Long COVID Linked to Worsened Hangover Symptoms: Study"

Research suggests that long COVID may lead to increased alcohol sensitivity and more severe hangovers in some individuals, potentially due to the weakening of the blood-brain barrier caused by the virus and inflammation. Anecdotal evidence and a recent study published in the journal Cureus found that patients with long COVID reported experiencing worse hangovers and alcohol intolerance, with some developing new-onset alcohol reactions and sensitivity after COVID infection. While more research is needed to confirm these findings, the study highlights a potential link between COVID and alcohol-related symptoms.

Hangover-Free Liquor Tech: The Key to Enjoying Alcohol without the Morning After

London-based company GABA Labs is developing a synthetic alcohol called Alcarelle that aims to deliver the pleasurable effects of alcohol without the negative side effects. Alcarelle targets only GABA receptors in the brain, allowing for the release of dopamine and serotonin while avoiding undesirable effects. The tasteless synthetic alcohol can be added to nonalcoholic drinks or mixed with real alcohol. GABA Labs plans to complete U.S. food-safety testing by mid-2026 and launch in European markets. The development of drugs to reduce alcohol cravings and speed up hangover recovery is also underway. The decline in alcohol consumption among Americans, along with the potential adverse health effects of drinking, has fueled interest in alternative options.
