Word is that scientists are on the brink of creating a drug that mimics all the nice things about alcohol, but eliminates all the hangovers, addiction and health issues. You know you want to read more.
This “serious revolution in health” is being formulated by the former UK government drugs advisor Professor David Nutt, and has been described as doing for alcohol what the e-cigarette has done for cigarettes.
Basically, it targets our neurons directly. Once taken, it can give the taker the precise same feelings of pleasure and disinhibition – because it manipulates precisely the same neurotransmitters.
But, and here’s the best bit, because it acts directly on the brain, it can be blocked by an antidote. One minute you’re dancing naked on the table, the next minute you’re driving on the highway – completely sober. Professor Nutt explains:
I think this would be a serious revolution in health… just like the e-cigarette is going to revolutionise the smoking of tobacco. I find it weird that we haven’t been speaking about this before, as it’s such a target for health improvement.
The sad thing is that it’s nearly impossible to get this out onto the market. Imagine this guy going to SAB and telling them that their product is null and void.
All we can say is good luck, Professor Nutt.
