Why ‘kutoa lock’ doesn't cure your hangover, it delays it Studies point to a 24-hour pause to let the body fully process and eliminate the toxins. Health 19 min ago

Kutoa lock buys a few more hours of feeling normal, keeping the nervous system numbed and the blood alcohol level up.

Researchers say food can slow how quickly alcohol is absorbed, which lowers your blood alcohol concentration at any one point, but it does not change the total amount that eventually enters your bloodstream.

A study from Bowling Green State University found that fatty food in particular delays the rise in blood alcohol levels, but it does not make the liver process alcohol any faster, and does not reduce how much is ultimately absorbed.
