Sunset Forte Alcohol Flush Support

The term alcohol flush reaction, also known as Asian flush or Asian glow, refers to the red face commonly experienced after consuming alcohol. This happens because of a genetic ALDH2 enzyme deficiency common in, but not exclusive to, people of Asian origin.

The functionality of the ALDH2 enzyme is a crucial element in breaking down a toxic metabolite of alcohol called acetaldehyde and it's deficiency causes a toxic buildup whenever alcohol is consumed. This results in a variety of unpleasant reactions that include facial flushing, headaches, nausea and a general feeling of discomfort.

Sunset works to stop the Asian flush reaction by utilizing multiple layers of defense. Firstly, via glutathione synthesis, it assists the deficient ALDH2 enzyme break down acetaldehyde before it causes facial flushing. Secondly, via a histamine blockade, it prevents the body from reacting to whatever flush-provoking toxins are left behind. These two flush defence mechanisms are held in place by a synergy of compounds balanced precisely for optimum flush fighting effect.

Sunset works best if you take 3 capsules 30 minutes before consuming alcohol. You can also take 3 capsules of Sunset while consuming alcohol to reduce any existing facial redness.

Yes, you can have Asian flush if you’re not Asian. Despite the large proportion of Asians who suffer from alcohol flush, the term is simply used to describe a condition whereby the alcohol drinker lacks the necessary enzymes required to break down the toxins that arise from the metabolism of alcohol.

This deficiency can occur in anyone and is usually passed down from generation to generation, so if your mother or father has it then chances are you will have it too. Sunset has been used by hundreds of caucasian customers to successfully fight alcohol flush. Read more about caucasians and alcohol flush here.
