But one good drink often leads to another and it does not take a large quantity of alcohol to result in an unexpected hangover the morning following one too many. So millions of otherwise sober-minded adults find themselves dealing with the problem after it occurs. A aspirin, seltzers or other "over-the-counter remedies only deliver little more than hope and hype to a hangover victim.

Now there is a better solution: Nopal party cactus

Preventing and even curing a hangover is not a new idea. From making and taking home formulas to popping a few aspirin in the morning, many treatments are available, but not necessarily comparable. Aspirin is known to be harmful to the liver when mixed with alcohol, home remedies just add to the symptoms or make them worse.

Nopal (party cactus) is simple and easy to use. No more cramping your lifestyle, no more having to mix a potion while enjoying a few brews or cocktails with your friends. And you'll never have to feel sorry the next morning!. Just takes 3 capsules before having your first drink, and forget about it and wake up in the morning with renewed vigour and alertness.

Nopal (prickly pear cactus) taken before a night of drinking has shown to be an effective preventor of hangovers, quelling some of the wretched symptoms that strike the morning after a night out.

Nopal also helps maintain your health against potential future problems caused by alcohol toxicity, including liver damage and premature skin aging. Nopal lets you enjoy the social scene while taking responsibility for your health, so you can enjoy many years of responsible drinking.

Nopal (prickly pear cactus) is a new, all-natural dietary supplement that helps to regulate the metabolism of alcohol to safely and effectively prevent hangovers before they start.

Is Nopal safe? You could gobble down an entire package without side effects. Do NOT try that with over-the-counter capsules.

It is ironic that the solution to preventing a hangover, headaches and its other disagreeable after effects, has been hiding from us in a remarkable form of cactus plant life, since before alcoholic beverages were first consumed.

The revolutionary botanical discovery was extracted, by a French scientific team, from a plant that thrives in the scorching temperatures of the world's deserts. The plant, is a member of the Cactacea (Cactus) family, known as Opuntia ficus indica.

The active Nopal extract formula is derived from the fruit of the Prickly Pear Cactus, which has the ability to prevent a hangover.

Some of the names by which the Opuntia is also known are Barbary Fig, Indian Fig, Nopal or, most commonly, the Prickly Pear. Since pre-historic times, desert natives in North and South America have consumed the fruit and pads of this member of the Cactaceae family.

Spanish explorers carried this and other cacti species to Europe over two centuries ago and not long after, the Moors introduced the Opuntia to Africa.

Knowing this, the scientific team believed that the key to preventing pain and fatigue caused by physical stress was to find a way to increase the body's natural HSP levels faster, with no physical side effects. They felt that it was not beyond the realm of reason that an extract of a plant, that possessed an amazing level of survivability, could possibly enhance the ability of the human body to accelerate its HSP synthesis. In this manner, such an extract could protect human beings against many types of physical aggressions-including alcohol.

To examine the effectiveness of the extract for reducing hangover symptoms, Wiese and colleagues randomly assigned 55 adult volunteers aged 21 to 35 years to receive either prickly pear or placebo five hours before alcohol consumption.

Over four hours of drinking, volunteers consumed up to 1.75g of alcohol per kilogram of body weight, a quantity that has produced hangovers in previous studies.

One hour after their drinking session, the participants had their blood alcohol levels measured by the researchers. The following morning, they had their vital signs measured, and had blood and urine samples taken. Participants also reported hangover severity based on nine symptoms and overall well-being based on a scale from zero to six, with six points indicating the worst well-being.

The researchers found that three of the nine symptoms of hangover—nausea, dry mouth, and loss of appetite—were significantly reduced after taking the extract.

The average score for well-being the next morning was 2.75 for volunteers who took the extract and 3.10 for volunteers who took placebo.

The researchers also found that levels of C-reactive protein were strongly associated with hangover severity, and that C-reactive protein levels were 40% higher in volunteers who took the placebo compared with those that took the extract.
