Surgeon Alexander Umnov: the use of products with iodine and vitamin B6 before drinking reduces the harm caused to the body by vodka.

The surgeon Umnov spoke about ways to reduce the harm from vodka, advising, in particular, to eat foods that contain a lot of iodine and vitamin B6 for this purpose. Talking to the News.ru portal, the doctor explained that iodine activates the production of thyroid hormones, which contribute to the faster breakdown of alcohol that enters the body.

As for vitamins, Alexander Umnov gave the Russians the following advice:

“The day before the holiday, take vitamin B6 – it activates the enzyme alcohol dehydrogenase, which destroys alcohol.”
Also, according to the doctor, before drinking, it will be useful to take drugs – pancreatic enzymes. This, the doctor said, helps to reduce the burden on the gastrointestinal tract.
