B Good to Your Body Your doctor wasn’t lying: vitamins are important. It’s been true since you started munching those chalky Flinstones tablets, and it’s still true today. The packaging may be different, but the eight nutrients collectively known as “B vitamins” are vital to everyday health, and are also vulnerable to the effects of alcohol. B vitamins play a vital role in your body’s fight to remain healthy. Together, they help in converting food into energy, metabolizing fats and proteins, and maintaining healthy skin, hair, eyes, liver, and your nervous system. In other words, they keep the machine in smooth working order. Their weakness, however, is that they are water soluble, meaning they get flushed quickly from the body. Add to this the fact that alcohol hastens the B-vitamin flush, and you begin to understand why even occasional drinkers should be mindful of replenishing their B vitamins after a night out with that other “Vitamin B” – booze. Even moderate drinking can decrease vitamin B12 levels.
Regular drinkers should take note that routine consumption of alcohol not only flushes nutrients out, it also interferes with their absorption. Without the ability to absorb B vitamins, your body could eventually develop a vitamin deficiency leading to scary conditions like dementia and damage to the nervous system. Whether you consider yourself an occasional drinker or a more regular tippler, we could likely all afford to take in more Vitamin B – the nutrient, that is. Natural sources of the vitamins can be found in brewer’s yeast, almonds, animal liver, yogurt and eggs.

Launched at the beginning of October, Australia-based Vitamin Vodka is a new spirit that claims it to be your new “anti-hangover” medicine. We know what you’re thinking: Hello? Isn’t all vodka a hangover cure? We are right there with you. That’s why Bloody Marys and screwdrivers were invented. It’s important to note, however, that based on our experience, this is merely a delay tactic that leads to the dreaded double hangover, which unfortunately also generally coincides with Monday. RELATED: This Is What You Should Eat When You’ve Had a Lot to Drink That’s where this vodka comes in (or so it says). According to the company’s website, their booze is “infused with vitamins to refresh and revitalize,” which “assists in the prevention of the dreaded hangover.”
What exactly are these vitamins? “Vitamins B, C, and K are used in Vitamin Vodka,” the company’s European business manager Bradley Mitton told Vice. “The B and C vitamins assist with hydration, as it’s primarily dehydration that creates a hangover. You consume the equivalent of one multivitamin in every four shots.” RELATED: Jay Z Launches New Champagne That Costs Over $125 Per Glass But before you start planning to incorporate four shots of vodka into your nightly bedtime routine, we have some sad news: It’s only available in central Europe, and it costs €1,450 — which is equivalent to over $1,600. FILED UNDER: Cocktails , Food News , Health On a clear day, you can see forever—or at least that’s the wicked thought behind L.A. designer Agi Berliner’s transparent idea: see-through jeans. Exhibitionists notwithstanding, most folks wear them over bathing suits or as attention-getting evening wear with halters, garter belts and body stockings.
Created for the disco crowd, the $34 jeans are selling like, well, hot pants. In just six weeks, 25,000 pairs have already been sold in such major department store chains as Macy’s, Bonwit’s and Saks. “What’s limiting American designers is that we’re afraid to do something different,” says Berliner, 32, a Hungarian émigré who fled with her family to the U.S. in 1956. Agi thought up the gimmick in London while marveling at the way plastics were being employed by designers of punk fashion. In her L.A. office, where she designs for La Parisienne junior sportswear, Agi spent five days on the phone and six weeks testing to come up with the right plastic. Agi herself tried out the French-cut jeans with the zipper in front, and quickly found several problems: Some plastics tore away from stitching, others wouldn’t bend and all fogged with perspiration. The ideal material proved to be a vinyl supplied by a bookbinder. The steam was eliminated with a series of vents behind the knees and in the crotch.
