Boulder, CO (October 12, 2025) - (USAnews.com) — Cloud9 Health, a category leader in alcohol wellness, today announced plans to expand its platform to include at-home biomarker testing and telehealth services in early 2026. This expansion builds on the success of Daily Restore, its flagship doctor-developed supplement created to support liver health, energy, mood, and sleep for people who drink alcohol.
Founded by Mike Hardenbrook, Cloud9 was built to fill a gap in the wellness market for people who drink but also care deeply about their health. While most products in this space offer short-term relief the next day, Cloud9 focuses on daily support and long-term health outcomes.
"We're not in the hangover business," said Hardenbrook. "We're in the long-term health business. Daily Restore is the foundation. What's next is giving people deeper visibility into how alcohol affects their health and the support to act on it."
Flagship Product Gains Traction
Since launching in 2025, Cloud9 has delivered more than one million Daily Restore doses nationwide. The supplement was developed with healthcare professionals to support the body's natural recovery process from the biological effects of alcohol, which can persist for up to 72 hours after drinking.
Daily Restore contains benfotiamine (a bioavailable form of vitamin B1), NAC (N-acetyl cysteine), DHM (dihydromyricetin), and other science-backed nutrients that support liver health, help maintain energy, stabilize mood, and promote restorative sleep.
Many users have reported improved lab results, including normalized liver enzyme levels, better sleep quality, increased energy, and reduced next-day sluggishness. Customer experiences can be viewed at trycloud9.com/reviews.
Shifting from Recovery to Prevention
For decades, the alcohol wellness industry has centered on hangover pills, powders, and short-term fixes. These products do little to address the ongoing biological effects of alcohol. Cloud9 represents a shift from this reactive approach toward prevention, recovery, and long-term health.
This strategy aligns with a growing mindful drinking movement, where consumers aim to drink with greater awareness and prioritize health without adopting all-or-nothing behaviors. These individuals want support, not stigma. They want better health while maintaining social rituals and personal freedom.
Cloud9 is designed for this audience. It provides science-backed, accessible support that fits into daily life.
Platform Expansion: Testing and Telehealth
Building on the success of its flagship supplement, Cloud9 will introduce at-home biomarker testing and telehealth consultations in early 2026. These new services will give users personalized insight into how their habits affect key health markers such as liver enzyme levels, inflammation, and metabolic function.
The at-home collection kits will use trusted, clinically validated partners to ensure reliability. Users will access results through a secure portal and, if desired, connect with licensed clinicians for individualized guidance and support.
"People track everything today: steps, sleep, glucose," said Hardenbrook. "Alcohol health shouldn't be a blind spot. Our goal is to make this information visible and easy to act on."
Doctor-Developed and Science-Based
Cloud9 works with experienced healthcare professionals, including doctors who specialize in nutrition, liver health, and addiction medicine. Their involvement ensures each product is designed with both efficacy and safety in mind.
"Most people underestimate how long alcohol impacts the body," said Dr. Brooke Scheller, DCN, CNS, functional nutrition doctor and advisor to Cloud9. "Alcohol affects the liver, nervous system, and sleep cycles. Supporting the body daily is smarter and more sustainable than waiting until the morning after."
The upcoming testing and telehealth services will complement the supplement line, providing users with data-driven tools to track their health over time and take practical steps toward improvement.
Meeting Growing Demand
The expansion comes as more adults rethink their relationship with alcohol. Interest in mindful drinking and health-first drinking behaviors is rising. Many people are not seeking to quit entirely but want ways to reduce harm, stay healthy, and maintain balance.
Cloud9's platform serves this emerging audience. It offers a structured yet flexible way to protect health without judgment. By combining daily support, personal health data, and access to clinical care, Cloud9 is creating a new category in wellness.
A Forward-Looking Vision
Cloud9's long-term strategy is to lead the alcohol wellness category through an integrated platform that combines supplements, health tracking, and telehealth. This vision separates Cloud9 from hangover brands and abstinence-only programs. It gives people a practical and personalized way to stay healthy while enjoying their lives.
"We believe alcohol health will become as common as tracking fitness or nutrition," said Hardenbrook. "People want better options that respect their choices and help them stay well."
