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.

Don't know...he just told me they were natural ingredients.
Yeah I've wasted a ton of money on a bunch of products. So annoying. But that's why I was surprised with this supplement. His Asian Flush Pill worked on his sister too, who I've seen get really really red when taking nothing.
Maybe it's different for everyone but I haven't seen it not work yet.
I asked him and it's not Fomepizole of Alda-1.
Yeah that makes sense. He told me he was just going to put a page up to see if there is interest first before he does any more work. I don't think he'll end up going through with it actually unless interest is ridiculous, but he said there hasn't been many signups.
Do you guys think that not being able to eat a few hours before is a big deal? Especially when you can take Pepcid.
No he didn't. He said it's not a drug through and that they're all natural ingredients.
Hey everyone,
Like dorkomatic, I want to thank everyone for all the insights people have shared on this forum. I've been reading these posts for a long time, looking for solutions and have only began posting today. I finally made an account because I wanted to give back and contribute to the discussion.
So last weekend, a friend of mine let me try a supplement he created when he drinks and I was surprised it worked on me (I would say it reduced my flush by 90-95%).
The only thing is that I can't eat anything a few hours before taking the pill but this didn't bother me too much. He didn't want to take Pepcid so he took time to figure out a natural solution to process the alcohol (I don't understand all the chemistry but he's showed me some of his notes). I keep telling him he should sell this but he's busy with other stuff and keeps saying that it won't sell because people would need to not eat a few hours before taking the pill. I did convince him to put up a website to see if there is any interest and maybe he'll focus on it full time if he gets interest but I wanted to see what you all thought.
I definitely would buy it but would you guys? Help me convince him! His site is just called Asian Flush Pill (I told him he should have been more creative, haha)
Hi obliko,
I'm also pretty concerned about this. I definitely want to put my health above all else, but I enjoy drinking too! I know there are higher rates of esophageal cancer in Asia and from the research I've done, the incidence rates there are about 0.02%, which is slightly encouraging.
I tried but I can't seem to post a link to the source from the study
