Sobar, founded by Joseph Fisher, Ph.D, is a new snack that is built to reduce peak blood alcohol content by 50 percent, as tested on a 21-person sample size. The protein bars — available in white chocolate almond, honey peanut and caramel macchiato — are formulated to delay stomach emptying, during which alcohol is transferred to the small intestine where alcohol absorption is fastest.
To maximize the protein bar’s effectiveness, the brand recommends eating a bar five to 15 minutes before drinking, but no more than 30 minutes prior to your first drink. Sobar is made with allulose, a low-calorie sugar, which may result in a laxative effect due to excessive Alluose consumption.
Sobar protein bars come in a 12-pack for $30 and is available now.
