Didn't know that ginseng neutralizes the toxic agents in alcohol.
Quoted: Take about 1000 mg to 3000 mg of ginseng before the party. You will be able to support the effect of alcohol better and your mind will be more focused without having to resort to a cup of coffee. Ginseng also helps the liver in its job to neutralize the toxic agents in alcohol. Ginseng accelerates the decomposition and the elimination of alcohol.

Came up in conversation...
Quoted: Several studies show that it doesn't matter whether you drink occasionally or frequently-alcohol consumption results in adverse effects on muscle growth. Alcohol decreases protein synthesis and affects Type II muscle fibers (the ones used in explosive kinds of activities like intense weight training) more than Type I (the fibers used primarily in endurance kinds of activities).
