Concerning N-ACC, yes, that's correct, it works by binding with acetaldehyde, the toxic byproduct of alcohol oxidation. Acetaldehyde is also the very thing that causes headaches. So, unless you find an even more powerful chelating agent, such as DMPS (2,3-Dimercapto-1-propanesulfonic acid, aka Unithiol), ACC is the best bet to really cure your hangover.
Hmm - acetaldehyde is not a metal. I don't think that a chelating agent would help (nevermind the side effects). Maybe something more specific.
"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled." - Richard FeynmanFirst of all, I'm a toxicologist. Curing hangovers is my specialty.
Tested in vitro and in vivo. On myself, actually, as well as on some of my friends - both ACC and Unithiol do juuuust fine. In twenty minutes, the hangover is gone. They work by binding with carbonyl group. Unithiol works exceptionally well. Side effects? Low blood pressure and thirst out of this world. Also, Unithiol rapidly depletes your copper and zinc, so you should watch out for that. So, unless you have zinc and/or copper deficiency or allergy to any food containing sulfur (such as peas and turnip), you'll do fine.
How about vomiting?
