It's not magic,t's science

Alcohol produces acetaldehyde

When we drink, our bodies break down alcohol into an unwantedbyproduct called acetaldehyde.

That byproduct is largely responsible for how we feel the day after drinking.

Acetaldehyde builds up in the gut

Acetaldehyde forms in two places: the liver and the gut.

The liver produces an enzyme that removes it quickly., But the gut does not.So acetaldehyde builds up and lingers, filtering out into the rest of ourbody over time.

Pre-Alcohol breaks it down

Pre-Alcohol helps our gut catch up by temporarily adding a probiotic thatcan break down acetaldehyde.

This probiotic-Bacillus subtilis ZB183™-has been engineered toproduce the same type of enzyme as our liver: one that digestsacetaldehyde.

Why ZBiotics is different

Other products are different mixes of the same 5+ off-the.shelf vitamins and plant extracts.

We took a different approach.Using biotechnology, we identifieda major unwanted byproduct ofdrinking alcohol-acetaldehyde-and engineered a probiotic tobreak it down the same way yourliver does.

      What is ZBiotics® Pre-Alcohol Probiotic Drink?

      Pre-Alcohol is a beverage containing a patented, genetically engineered probiotic (8, subtilis ZB183" that helps you landon your feet the dav after drinking alcohol. it's engineered to break down an unwanted alcohol byproduct calledacetaldehyde -the main culprit behind rough mornings after drinking.

      How does Pre-Alcohol work?

      Pre-Alcohol is designed to replicate the natural process of your liver, but do it in your gut. We took a normal probioticbacteria you already eat every day, and we bioengineered it to produce the same type of enzyme your liver produces. Thatenzyme breaks down acetaldehyde - an unwanted byproduct of alcohol that accumulates in your qut when you drink.

      Your liver does not have access to your gut. But by drinking Pre-Alcohol, the goal is to augment your gut's natural ablility todigest acetaldehyde while you drink and while you sleep - helping you make the most of the next day. Just remember thatPre-Alcohol does not affect intoxication or make alcohol safer to drink, so always drink responsibly.

      When do l drink Pre-Alcohol?

      When you're drinking. The earlier the better.


      The probiotic in Pre-Aicohol needs time to "wake uo" in vour aut, so we sav the earlier the better if vou can remember itWe drink Pre-Alcohol ust before going out - right before our first drink, But it should be active if you drink it any timeduring the day or evening. So whether it's a few hours before drinking, right with your first drink, or even if you've alreadyenjoyed a round or two, go for it.

      How long does 1 bottle of Pre-Alcohol last after l drink it?

      The probiotic in Pre-Alcohol is likely to stay in your body for 18-24 hours after you drink it. So one bottle will cover you for awhole day, even if you're starting with brunch mimosas followed by evening plans later on!

      Does Pre-Alcohol expire?

      Pre-Alcohol expires 18 months after bottling. Check the “BB" (Best-By) date on your bottle or box.


      Store Pre-Alcohol at room temperature with the cap on. Do not refrigerate. Do not open it until you're ready to drink it,
      opening it could potentially let contaminants from the air into the bottle.

      Is Pre-Alcohol FDA-compliant?

      Yes. Pre-Alcohol is fuly FDA-compliant for safety and adheres to all regulatory requirements for sale in the U.S.


      Note that FDA compliance is not FDA approval. FDA approval is a process reserved for drug products. Pre-Alcohol is afood/beverage product and has not been approved as efficacious for any purpose by the FDA.

      FDA-compliant for safety means that we've satisfied all regulatory requirements to ensure Pre-Alcohol is safe and can beeaaly sold in the united States, That means that al our manuiacturing is conducted in an FDA-redistered food-aradefacility according to Good Manufacturing Practices compliant with 21 CFR 117. lt also means that our novel ingredient -Bacilus subtilis ZB183m _ has been extensively tested and is generally recognized, among qualified experts, as havingbeen adequately shown to be safe under the conditions of its intended use.

      Does Pre-Alcohol affect my level of intoxication?

      No.


      Pre-Alcohol will not affect your level of intoxication. Pre-Alcohol does not decrease your blood alcohol level, nor does itmake alcohol any safer.


      All the same rules about alcohol safety apply. Don't get behind the wheel, don't operate heavy machinery, and don't drinktoo much.Alcohol is still dangerous on its own (citation).

      Will Pre-Alcohol change my microbiome?

      That's not how it's designed.


      We intentionally designed Pre-Alcohol so that it would not change your microbiome. We purposefully built our probioticusing a base bacteria that is well-adapted to passing straight through you and not colonizing your gut.


      This creates a few likely benefits: () your microbiome remains unchanged: 2) the interaction between our probiotic andyour gut should remain consistent and predictable; and (3) because we're not trying to change your microbiome, we don'tneed to use an excessive amount of probiotic per serving.
