Cheers to all wanting to live for the bottles but have been scared of the morning after. Now your dreams have come true for there is now cure for hangover.
The cure was developed by an ex Telsa Engineer, Sisun Lee who decided to quit the job he loved and form a company that would solve the most pressing dilemma of some people.
Lee’s company, Morning Recovery, will officially open for business on July 5, when it will start selling the FDA-compliant hangover cure.
Revealing how it all began for him, 27-year-old Lee stated that he went on a trip home country of South Korea, where it was all about partying hard. There, he found out that even after he drank he didn’t get any hangover in the morning following some hangover cure drinks he took.
Back to the US, he tried similar drinks without any success. Hence, he decided to buy the ones from Korea online and try it with some of his friends who really fell in love with the drinks and wanted more.
Seeing a prospect, Lee contacted the companies to be their distributor in the US, but they shut the door on him since he neither had any experience in beverages nor consumer goods. More so, they didn’t even know him.
That brought an idea to him to start making the drink himself since he had already had three years of nanotechnology/biotech engineering in college before changing majors to computer science.
Soon he found himself researching the ingredients and discovered the work of Dr. Jing Liang, a UCLA researcher publishing papers on herbal remedies for hangovers.
This led him to find out that it was a herbal compound called dihydromyricetin (DHM) found in the Oriental Raisin tree and rattan tea, that has been used to cure hangovers in Asia for hundreds of years.
It was from here that Lee continued to develop his cure for hangover with the help of Dr. Jing Liang using himself and his friends as the tests “mice” before over two thousand people indicated interest in trying out the supplement.
After the test, Lee put up a Web page explaining the science behind the drink which he posted on Facebook and asked his friends to share. It was there that a VC in Toronto saw the post and put it on Product Hunt, a website that helps launch new products.
“Overnight we became No. 2 on Product Hunt. We weren’t even a startup. We were just people doing this thing,” he said. That day 10,000 people signed up to try it.
Soon, the number of people rose to over 30,000 and it became obvious that he had to leave Telsa to face the business.
There you are, now there is a really working cure for hangover for you.
