Podcast: ep. 70: Zack Abbott of ZBiotics


Listen Later

Zack Abbott is the co-founder and the inventor of the proprietary technology behind ZBiotics. This product is built upon the idea that we have been attempting to tackle those rough mornings after drinking alcohol incorrectly for decades, if not longer. Long-standing research shows that neither dehydration nor electrolyte imbalance is what causes that next-day misery. 😲

Getting into the science, when the body begins to break down alcohol, one of the bi-products that is created is called “acetaldehyde”. This is highly toxic. As I understand it, the liver is great at managing acetaldehyde, but not all of it makes it to the liver. Some of it lingers in your gut, where it is not broken down well, gets absorbed into the body, and wreaks havoc many of us are familiar with. Zack and his team have worked to create a product that helps your gut do a better job at breaking down the acetaldehyde in your cut called, “pre-alcohol”.

Do you know someone who might like this? Please share it.

They’re not here to claim they have a magical cure-all, but a growing number of customers are swearing that it is making their next mornings much better, if not completely better. I have tried it on a couple of occasions when I’ve had some drinks and feel that the following days were great.

Aside from the alcohol space, Zack and his team are working to reclaim the term GMO (Genetically Modified Organism) as one that can be a good thing. On every bottle, you’ll find “Proudly GMO” written. Zack talks about this in the episode. Read more from them here.
