Patches Vs. Pills

This is a question asked everyday!  “Why use patches vs. pills?”  What we have done is gathered some real scientific and factual inforamtion to help you understand why Zaca uses patches vs. pills.

pills1With pills one needs to take several dosages over the night to even have a chance to help with the hangover.  Most companies that have hangover pills suggest you take 2 pills before drinking and 2 pills every hour while drinking.  Who can remember this?

Pills are harder for the body to digest and absorb.  Did you know that only 10-20% of the nutrients in the pill actually make it to the cellular level?  This means that 80-90%  is eliminated by your body!  Let’s say you go and purchase hangover pills for $20, you are actually wasting $17 because your body will eliminate it.

Pills contain filler ingredients to cut cost.  Almost 90-96% of capsules, pills, and tablets are filler ingredients.  Adverse reactions are caused by fillers mostly not the active ingredients. 

Pills are hard to take and remember.  Most people recognize the use of supplements but the problem is they are a pain in the butt to take!  When was the last time you were suppose to take a supplement pill and just completely forgot?  How about people who can’t even swallow?

zaca-box-sample-picZaca Patches are easy to use and last 24 hours.  For example with the hangover patch all you need to do is put it on before drinking and forget about it and enjoy your night.  You can forget about this patch because it works all night or day.  There are NO fillers, sugars, calories, or colors added to any of our patches.  And, 100% is absorbed rather then wasting 80-90%!

Zaca and Vitamin C

c_fruitVitamin C is found everywhere!  Its found in foods and supplements.  Supplements you need to watch out for.  Their are all different forms of vitamins and most supplements contain the synthetic forms.  You want to stay away from those forms because there is no beneficial reason for taking them.

We receive emails every single day about our ingredients.  So today we are going to focus on vitamin C and what it may do for a hangover.

Everyone knows how vitamin C is an antioxidant?  So what it does is it helps to fight free radicals in your body.  The reason why you need vitamin C while drinking is because alcohol metabolizes and then your body detoxifies itself releasing free radicals.  Vitamin C may also work on headaches and pain because it inhibits prostaglandins which are responsible for these pains.  It has also been known to help with motor co-ordination, alcohol clearance and stimulates the liver to break down the alcohol.

Here are some healthy, whole food sources of vitamin C:

Whole Food Sources Serving Vitamin C (mg)
Sweet red pepper 1/2 cup, raw 141
Strawberries 1 cup 82
Orange 1 medium 70
Brussels sprouts 1/2 cup 68

Raw food is always the best way to eat your foods when trying to consume large amounts of nutrients.  The other great thing with food is you can’t over dose on it!  Its food!!

Yes, Zaca the organic hangover patch does contain this perticular ingredient and its the real vitamin C complex.  The difference between eating the actual food and wearing the organic hangover patch is the food is going to fill you up.  You also will have to cosume large amounts of foods because of the nutrient loss in our foods now-a-days.  The hangover patch you simply put on and forget about it for 24 hours.  Its that easy!

Can you really work hard and play hard at the same time?

How many times have you had an important social engagement to attend at night, yet you had to wake up and work the very next morning?

It was a toss up, but you couldn’t resist to attend the engagement. The next day you only wish you had one less drink. Your hangover feels like you got punched in the back of head and left in the Sahara desert with no water.

So can you really work hard and play hard at the same time? Is that an oxymoron? Well, maybe not if you didn’t have to deal with the hangovers. At least that’s what our customers think after using the Zaca ‘hangover patch.’

What do you think?
