Those big brains at MIT have managed to devise a "cocktail" that will get you sober a fraction of the time it took you to get blotto. And here I thought they didn't ever go near parties...
The magic drunk bullets are enzymes fashioned after the body's normal organelles, and which flushing your system with a ton of (for lack of better term) "alcohol-eaters", clearing out alcohol molecules and putting your blood alcohol content on the right side of the decimal point. Or to hear it straight from the scientists conducting the study, it would “almost be like having millions of liver cell units inside your stomach or in your intestine, helping you to digest alcohol”.
Preliminary tests showed that drunk mice injected with the solution sobered up much quicker than those injected with a control, which means either this will one day be a boon to humans, or allow us to drink as much cheesewine as we want without fear of hangovers.
