WIRED Tested Miracle Hangover Cures. You're Welcome - WIRED

Downing Flaming Sambuca shots at last call may seem like a good idea at the time, but come sunrise your body most likely won’t be thanking you for it. A new wave of pre-drink supplements promises to combat this, however, and lighten the burden of the dreaded hangover.

Just as it began to look a lot like Christmas, WIRED grabbed the chance to update our anti-hangover supplements feature. Since we first tested these products that claim to ease your head when you’ve had one too many, we’ve discovered a host of new products to try. Aiming to ease the effects of an excessive night of food and alcohol, these supplements include ingredients supposedly designed to break down alcohol in the gut before it reaches the liver or boost your body’s defenses with essential vitamins and minerals. In turn, so the claims go, this can help to eliminate (or at least drastically reduce) headaches, upset stomach, and nausea post-partying.

While small independent studies have been conducted to test the validity of these supplements, proof that they actually work as a hangover preventative is an area that remains to be satisfactorily explored. However, this hasn’t stopped brands from launching these supplements that tap into the “one too many” market. “The theory behind these supplements is that they work to lower your blood alcohol level and support your body with vitamins, reducing the chances of a worse hangover,” says Nadja Auerbach, clinical operations associate at Thriva. “The active ingredients in these popular pills include things such as the amino acid L-cysteine, vitamin B12, and two probiotics, or healthy bacteria, Bacillus subtilis and Bacillus coagulans.”

Video Game Adaptations Could Keep Beating Marvel at the Box Office in 2024 - WIRED

One of the more amusing TikToks that followed the announcement of the forthcoming Legend of Zelda movie riffs on a scene from the animated series Drawn Together. In it, the blue-caped Captain Hero sits in a wheelchair at the bottom of a staircase next to the text “Zelda fans when the movie was announced.” One beat later, the words “it’s live action” appear, and Captain Hero screams. Another beat, then “it’s produced by Avi Arad (Morbius)” flashes up, this time to a louder scream. Finally, “It was written by the writer of Batman v Superman, Rise of Skywalker, and Jurassic Worlld [sic],” and Captain Hero unleashes one last wounded wail.

Even with the slight mistake—the movie's screenwriter, Derek Connolly, did contribute to Jurassic World and Star Wars: Episode IX—The Rise of Skywalker but didn’t have anything to do with Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice—historically, you’d have been naive to bet against this wisdom. Video game adaptations have a rough track record. Yet 2023 saw the release of one critically acclaimed video game adaptation, The Last of Us, which received two dozen Emmy nominations, and one obscenely profitable one, The Super Mario Bros Movie, which made more than a billion dollars worldwide last spring. Even more obscure titles, like Five Nights at Freddy’s and Twisted Metal, made reasonable waves.

This upturn in the fortunes of video game adaptations has coincided with a perceived downturn for comics-based fare. After 15 years of dominance, “superhero fatigue” is now a pervasive talking point. Is there a new hegemon in Hollywood? That might be premature, but 2023 hinted at a future realignment in audience appetites.
