Frequently
Asked Questions |
| How
does RU-21 work? |
A:
RU-21 supports the body's natural ability to metabolize alcoholic
beverages. When taken with alcohol, the natural ingredients
in RU-21 support alcohol metabolism by slowing down the process
of ethanol oxidation into toxic byproducts which occur with
alcohol consumption. RU-21 aids the body's digestive system
by supporting the decomposition of alcohol's digestive byproducts
into acetic acid, water and carbon dioxide.
Everything
of a biochemical nature, including processes in the body that
occur during alcohol intake, can be addressed biochemically.
RU-21 has been shown in experimental and clinical studies to
enhance the body’s natural ability to metabolize alcohol
by helping it break down dangerous toxins. Ingredients in RU-21
enable certain biochemical reactions that enhance enzyme functions
of the body, while keeping the energy levels up and metabolic
pathways running properly. |
| How
do I take RU-21? |
A:
RU-21 is formulated to support the body's
ability to metabolize alcohol, which means interfering in a metabolic
process. Therefore, it is important that you take RU-21 at the
time of alcohol consumption. Take
two pills before your first alcoholic drink, and two pills after
your last drink. However, because individual metabolisms vary,
modifications of these directions are acceptable. In studies,
1 tablet per 2 drinks was shown sufficient for most males and
1 per drink for most females. If you are drinking for several
hours, have more than a just few drinks, have a higher body
weight, or are particularly susceptible to hangovers, you can
take an additional two pills in the time between the first and
last drink. Taking more than six pills per day is not recommended
because even though it will not cause serious problems, you
could possibly experience some stomach discomfort. |
| Does
RU-21 contain any stimulants? |
A:
No. RU-21 does not contain any stimulants. |
| When
should I use RU-21? |
A:
It is a good idea to always use RU-21 when consuming alcohol.
Using RU-21 with even minimal amounts of alcohol will help maintain
good health and even appearance, since acetaldehyde is also
known to cause premature aging of skin.
Studies link even moderate drinking to life-threatening diseases.
This is why it is very important to always keep alcohol consumption
to a minimum and supplement it with food and vitamins. RU-21
is not intended to protect the body from EXCESSIVE alcohol consumption,
which should always be avoided. |
|
Will RU-21 prevent intoxication? |
A:
RU-21 will NOT reduce the level of intoxication or the feeling
of intoxication. Simply put, when you drink alcohol and use RU-21,
you may still get "buzzed". However, RU-21 helps the
body eliminate alcohol-related toxins that affect important body
functions and the way you feel in the morning. |
| Can
alcohol be beneficial for health? |
A:
Some people do choose to enjoy certain health benefits from alcohol;
for example, it is widely believed that the Resveratrol and other
antioxidants in red wine may help protect against certain diseases.
To enhance any health benefits of moderate alcohol consumption,
many people choose to take RU-21 so they can enjoy the positive
benefits of alcohol consumption while protecting their bodies
from any toxic effects. RU-21 enables legal drinking-aged adults
to enjoy alcohol moderately and responsibly by boosting the natural
ability of the human body to effectively metabolize alcohol. |
| Why
do some people process alcohol differently? |
A:
Women possess less of the necessary enzymes for alcohol metabolism,
and are more prone to the toxic byproducts of alcohol than men.
Some ethnic groups, such as Asians and Native Americans, also
possess less of the enzyme that metabolizes alcohol than other
groups. |
| What
is the origin of RU-21? |
A:
RU-21 was developed by a group of scientists at the Institute
of Theoretical and Experimental Biophysics, Russian Academy of
Sciences (Russian counterpart of the National Academy of Sciences
in the US) under the lead of a renowned Russian scientist, Prof.
Eugene Mayevsky in the course of a 25 year-long research studying
alcohol metabolism. |
|
What are the RU-21 ingredients? |
A:
The list of ingredients in 100% natural dietary supplement RU-21:
Succinic Acid 200mg
Fumaric Acid
75mg
L-Glutamine Acid 250mg
Vitamin C
60mg
Vitamin B6
10mg
Vitamin B2
8.5mg
L-Cystene
30mg
Alpha Lipoic Acid 20mg
Other ingredients: Glucose (Dextrose) |
| Does
RU-21 Encourage Excessive Drinking? |
A:
No. In fact, RU-21 has been shown in clinical trials to reduce
alcohol cravings, which occur due to acetaldehyde's effect on
the central nervous system. In addition, surveys have shown that
individuals who use RU-21 become more educated about alcohol metabolism
and as a result tend to consume alcohol more responsibly. |
| How
Long has RU-21 Been on the Market? |
A:
RU-21 has been on the market in Russia since 1999. It was introduced
in the United States in 2003. |
| Is
it Safe? |
A:
RU-21 has not been shown in studies to cause any side effects.
No cases of any side effects have ever been reported. |
| Has
RU-21 been scientifically tested? |
A: Clinical trials
were conducted at the Russian Academy of Sciences, Ministry of
Public Health of RF, and earlier at laboratory of the Soviet Military
Academy of Sciences.
The analysis of scientific data obtained from those clinical trials
proved that 1.0g to 3.0g of RU-21 (0.5g tablets) introduced before
or during alcohol consumption, significantly reduces the risk
of alcohol-related diseases as well as mutagenesis (damage to
DNA cells) and also prevents alcohol-induced hangover. |
