Jan 11, 2005: On December 3, 2003, I posted
a message in my web journal about the Asian Blush, which quickly resulted in over 100 very-informative comments. This forum is intended to be an information source for those of us looking for information about why we turn red when we drink alcohol.

buy pepcid from Amazon.com.

Business Venture Opportunity-
I'm a biochemist that has been working for over 3 years to discover a viable business opportunity to create a cure for this affliction. Unfortunately for all of you out there, it doesn't seem like Convivia will ever be an option in a country such as ours with such strict regulations (as well as Japan and China) because the mechanism of action of 4-methylpyrazole, originally used to treat methanol poisoning, is just too dangerous to be taken regularly or sold over the counter. I am also well aware of the misinformation coming from Cheerz and NoRedFaceFormula, which seem to have little to no effect in treating alcohol flush reaction. Finally, Pepcid AC, which seems to be the general go-to cure for most people, most likely blocks the histamine (redness) response but does nothing to reduce acetaldehyde levels, resulting in a greatly increased risk of cancer and liver cirrhosis.
I believe that I have found a potential cure, based both on anecdotal evidence from this forum and personal research, that will prove to cure both the symptoms of Asian glow. I have developed a formulation, based largely on H2 antagonists (blockers) as well as antioxidants which target and neutralize acetaldehyde while protecting the stomach.
I am currently working with the former CFO of Pfizer, Canada, as well as an American teacher in Japan to develop this business, but require someone with an entrepreneurial spirit and experience in the pharmaceutical industry, preferably regulatory experience. Anyone with a PHD or MS in biochemistry or a related field should also contact me at chrisumbach@gmail.com
PS: ECheng - I contacted you via email several times regarding this venture. If you want an effective and harmless cure for this ailment, please help me to recruit for this new venture.
