FAQ

What is Drink Defence?

Drink Defence is a scientifically formulated capsule designed to support your body after drinking. It contains a targeted blend of DHM, milk thistle, and electrolytes that helps your body break down acetaldehyde — the toxic byproduct of alcohol that’s largely responsible for hangovers (see supporting research).

What makes Drink Defence different from other anti-hangover supplements?

Drink Defence stands out by targeting the root cause of post-drinking discomfort: acetaldehyde, the toxic byproduct of alcohol metabolism. Our formula combines multiple clinically-supported ingredients that work together to support your body’s natural recovery process.


We do this through four key actions:

1. Supporting ALDH enzyme activity to help break down acetaldehyde more efficiently

2. Replenishing NAD⁺ levels, a vital cofactor involved in alcohol detoxification

3. Assisting in acetaldehyde conversion by promoting its breakdown into harmless acetate

4. Providing antioxidant and liver support to buffer against cellular stress


Thanks to this multi-layered approach, Drink Defence users report feeling clearer, less sluggish, and more mentally sharp the next day—even after a big night.

How does Drink Defence work?

When you drink, your body breaks alcohol down into acetaldehyde, a compound that causes next-day symptoms like headaches, nausea, and fatigue (see supporting research). .

Drink Defence supports your body’s natural detox process by delivering ingredients like DHM, which has been studied for its ability to enhance the breakdown of acetaldehyde, and milk thistle, which supports liver function. The goal is to help your body process alcohol’s effects more efficiently, so you can wake up feeling better.

Just remember that Drink Defence does not lower your blood alcohol level or make alcohol safer to consume. Please drink responsibly.

Does Drink Defence work for all types of alcohol?

Yes, all alcoholic drinks contain ethanol which converts into toxic acetaldehyde. Drink Defence breaks down this toxic compound so you can avoid any side effects.

When do I take Drink Defence?

Take 3 capsules after your last drink of the night or right before bed— the earlier the better. Ideally within 30 minutes of finishing your last drink. This timing gives your body the support it needs to break down acetaldehyde while you rest.

It’s quick, convenient, and fits easily into your evening routine.

How long does Drink Defence last?

The effects of Drink Defence are designed to support you through the night and into the next day. When taken after drinking, its ingredients stay active during the key window when your body is processing alcohol and recovering — making it effective even if your night includes early drinks or late plans.

Does Drink Defence expire?

Yes.

Drink Defence has a shelf life of 18 months from manufacturing. You can find the Best-By date on the bottle.

Store it in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. No refrigeration needed.

Does Drink Defence affect my level of intoxication?

No.

Drink Defence does not impact your level of intoxication or your blood alcohol content. It’s formulated to support recovery after drinking, not to alter your alcohol metabolism in real time.

Never drink and drive, and always follow safe drinking practices.
