The present invention relates to a composition, and methods of using the composition, for minimizing the harmful effects associated with alcohol consumption. The composition includes a plurality of ingredients, which when combined, have the unexpected effect of increasing one or more metabolic pathways in the individual. As the metabolic rate is increased, alcohol is burned off, or utilized as energy source, and occurs at a considerably much faster rate than under normal physiological means. It is believed that the composition may have an effect on the brain causing it to increase metabolic rates, By administering the composition to an inebriated individual, the rate at which a person sobers up, occurs at a faster rate than would occur under normal physiological time frames.
