Himalaya PartySmart, 10 Individual Capsules - Alcohol Breakdown Liver Support for a Better Morning After Drinking - Plant Based, Vegan, Non-GMO, Gluten Free, Clinically Studied (Pack of 3)

Short review - Amazing and frankly life changing for me. I constantly recommend this in real life and I think I give away more of these pills to people I know so they can try them, than I even use them myself with no one ever telling me it failed!Long review - To put things in perspective, I was forced to quit drinking ANY alcohol because of how badly my body reacted to it all the way back in the 1990s (I would literally get headaches while drinking a single beer & a "good drunk" would lay me out for 3-4 days of hell), even though I had always enjoyed alcohol in many forms up until that time.Sometime around 2000, I really wanted the ability to drink alcohol again at certain events so I did research and developed a strategy involving taking a lot of vitamins, hydrating and prepping my stomach before drinking for those times I wanted to drink at events/parties & making sure I took a heavy dose of Ibuprofen (800mg) with at least 8oz of water at the end of the night. This worked really well and always prevented hangovers for me, but it was actually about 2 hours of prep so 1) I only did it once or twice a year & 2) I never casually drank, it was always to party.One day back in early 2022 before one of these events, I just happened to be at a friend's place and she was raving about how awesome Party Smart was and gave me a box (which contained a single pill). I was EXTREMELY skeptical to the point that I still did my prep instead of using the Party Smart on that occasion but did take the pill/box home with me to "experiment" with.Fast forward several weeks to the start of a holiday weekend which gave me 4 days to recover from drinking if the Party Smart didn't work. I purposely did everything "wrong" for my body by not hydrating or taking any of my normal prep stuff (or post drinking hydration/Ibuprofen) and then purposely overindulged (not to the point of having my stomach pumped or anything but definitely enough that I was way past BAC legal limits).I took the pill immediately after my first swallow of alcohol (similar to what I do with Lactaid and dairy) & then went for it by drinking way too much Tequila (something like half of a fifth) AND Prosecco (a full bottle) over the next few hours with no water or other hydration either during or after I finished.I fully expected that I would still have a hangover the next day & even in my drunken state of mind, I was absolutely calling myself an idiot in my head for trying this "experiment" rather than at least drinking water before going to bed. My hope was that Party Smart would cut my hangover to be a single day (rather than four) but the thought that it would totally eliminate it was really just a pipedream in my head.Next morning I was shocked because although I felt a little rundown there was zero headache or queasiness at all and even the rundown feeling went away with a little more sleep. I was completely blown away and immediately ran here to order a box of the pills (at the time, a box of single pill boxes was the only packaging option).Since then I have drank alcohol a lot. Sometimes hard alcohol like Tequila, Rum or Vodka... Sometimes wine... Sometimes beer... Sometimes jumping back and forth between different types. At times I have gotten distracted by people and forgot to take it immediately after my first taste and instead took it after 3-4 mixed drinks and yet still no hangover headache or queasiness the next day (although I definitely feel worse from a "being rundown" perspective when I forget to take it with that first sip).The upside is that I now can definitely drink casually and on the spur of the moment instead of only on special occasions with lots of prep. As part of this, I actually have gotten to try the amazing microbrews that are now ubiquitous (vs the mass produced options I had before I was forced to stop drinking by hangovers) and am no longer hesitant to have foods that have been cooked using alcohol (yes, I am still ao paranoid about my massive hangovers that I take a Party Smart just to eat something in a beschamel or other wine based sauce).Because of this, Party Smart has transformed my life in many ways. Not sure that my liver is exactly happy about it or that I haven't been drinking too often in response to having this ability again but that's a "me problem" having nothing to do with this amazing product.I would rate this product as at least a 7 on Amazon's scale of 1-5 as it is literally my favorite product I have ever bought through Amazon.

I have a problem metabolizing alcohol, I can tell because my cheeks turn red. Even with 2 drinks I’ll have a headache the next day. So these are a game changer. If I am celebrating and drink a lot these cut a hangover down by half or even more. I usually am just tired the next day. Instead of hungover all day. I recommend these to everyone! I honestly think they work better than the pre alcohol shots or cheers.

Kills your hangover

Full disclosure I am a beer drinker only. No shots. No cocktails. No mixed drinks. Nada. Not even the fruity shots. However I can easily put down 18-30 beers in a drink session. NOW that I’m 40 I am getting hangovers. Even just with beers. My twin kind of yelled at me and said “you had a good run! I started getting hangovers at 23!” Pretty sure his yelling was more jealousy than anything hahahaha!Anyways. I took this large pill about 1hr before my drink session. I had one (1) small slice of pizza during my adventures last night. I was trying to count how many beers I had. I believe it was my average amount. About 20-ish. Normally I wake up very thirsty with very little sleep. Maybe slightly nausea in my older age. Definite sleep deprived. No one ever gets good sleep after a night of drinking. Alcohol naturally suppresses that function in our brain. So naturally we would wake up not feeling our best.With this pill I feel pretty good. No headache. No nausea. Not really that thirsty. I’ll have to circle back to this again if it doesn’t work in the future. Definite worth the try if you are like me and wanting to avoid hangovers. Good luck!

GREAT

I really put this vitamin through a series of tests. I wanted to see if it works for most situations rather than just my own.Control; without taking vitamin: I am 28 years old, I do a lot of shots, mixed drinks and Jell-O shots. My hangovers last about 3-5 days, I experience dehydration, body aches, headaches, and my eyes also feel heavy and tired throughout the week. I drink a moderate amount of water when I drink alcohol but not as much as I should (1-2 glasses).Results taking vitamin:If you are a light drinker (1-4 drinks), this product works very well, no dehydration, no headache in the morning, no frequent bathroom trips. Has you feeling pretty good and ready to go in the morning. I didn’t drink any water during this specific test, and the results were better than I could’ve hoped.If you are more of a mid level drinker (5-9 drinks), this product has a 50/50 chance of working, it really depends on how much water you drink. 1st attempt was good, I drank (1-3) cups of water (6oz each) along with my alcohol and I felt good in the morning and only had a slight headache. The 2nd attempt was more of a struggle, I didn’t drink any water with my alcohol and I had a headache in the morning and I was definitely dehydrated. No body aches though and the hangover only lasted (1-2) hours. Again, a better result than what I had initially hoped for.If you are a heavy drinker (9-13 drinks), this product will not perform as well, it still works better than if you hadn’t taken it. But in 3 separate attempts with plenty of water (3-6 6oz cups) during my alcohol consumption, all 3 attempts I had a headache the next day and I was dehydrated most of the day and had body aches. I will say, the hangover didn’t last longer than a day each time.I would say it worked pretty well, even for heavy drinkers, it worked better than not taking a supplement at all. Definitely drink plenty of water either way, it was the common denominator for the best results.

I had high hopes for PartySmart, but after using it three times, I haven’t noticed any real difference in how I feel the next morning. The capsules also have an unpleasant taste, which makes them a little hard to take. While I appreciate the idea of a plant-based, herbal option, unfortunately, this just didn’t work for me. I don't think I would buy again.
