I have been told that Kudzu root is effective in metabolizing alcohol. Do Kudzu and RU-21 work the same?
No -- Kudzu (which is an obnoxious, fast-growing weed) is antagonistic to RU-21. RU-21 works to reduce the levels of acetaldehyde in the blood, thereby reducing the toxic effects of alcohol. Kudzu causes the acetaldehyde to collect and remain in the system longer - in hopes that the sickness from the toxicity will keep the person from drinking further. Obviously, the thought of voluntarily doing something that allows a potent toxin like acetaldehyde to collect in your body (when there are other, safer ways to curb drinking) is idiotic.
