what is an immediate cure for a hangover?

Question

hangover cure

Answer 1

you really want something that really works and doesn't cost much and makes perfect sense read on!

The reason u feel like sh!t is a. you poisoned yourself and b. Your dehydrated because your body needs 2-3 times the water to alcohol for the liver to break it down, and c all that urinating depleted your body of nessassary nutrients and water soulable vitiamins.

The cure!

Step one posion control: Activated charcoal has been used for 1000's of years to treat food posioning and such. It is still given in emergency rooms today. You can obtain sterile medical grade stuff through your pharmacy or online health/vitimin store it is used in herbal cleansing. MIx 1 teaspoon with water and drink to quiet a upset stomach.

Step two Rehydrate! Many people will tell you sports drink like gatorade but I recommend childrens pedialyte. The reason being is gatorade has only one electrolyte and lots of sugar. You don't want a suger rush and crash right now! The pedialyte is formulated for infants so its really fast and easy to metabolize, your stomach will thank you later.

Step three: Because you went and went and went somemore you passed all your minerals particulary potassium and magnesium as well as water soluable vitamins like c. You need to restock the shelves. You could take a vitamin pill and wait till hell froze over for it to get to your bowel or you get a bottle of liquid multi vitamins at any good vitamin store ( gnc) and keep it in the fridge. Just double or triple the recommanded daily dose on the label and add it to your pedialyte.

Lastly let me add a few things avoid things like red bull that have tons of caffine as these will dehydrate you more and although the hair of the dog can make you feel better by slowing your crash it's still a crash. If you do all what I put above you will feel about 70% better in one hr depending on you and what you did to yourself. Then have somemore.

Sleep is the final key and is usually the hardest to get, but try anyhow.

PS. If you can avoid aspirin and tylenol they just mask the pain. You don't feel like this cause your body is low on aspirin.

Here's a clip from a medical study, tell me the symptoms aren't the same as a hangover!

Symptoms of Magnesium Deficiency?
What are some of the symptoms of magnesium deficiency? They are outlined beautifully in a recent article by Dr. Sidney Baker. Magnesium deficiency can affect virtually every organ system of the body. With regard to skeletal muscle, one may experience twitches, cramps, muscle tension, muscle soreness, including back aches, neck pain, tension headaches and jaw joint (or TMJ) dysfunction. Also, one may experience chest tightness or a peculiar sensation that he can't take a deep breath. Sometimes a person may sigh a lot.

Here's one w/ potassiums;

The symptoms of potassium deficiency include muscle weakness, confusion, irritability, fatigue, and heart disturbances. Athletes with low potassium stores may tire more easily during exercise, as potassium deficiency causes a decrease in glycogen (the fuel used by exercising muscles) storage.

So now you know why every muscle in your body aches and the smallest task has u out of breath and you feel so tired........

Lastly I included two links if you read about the symptoms of magnesium/potassium deficiency. Please verify everything!

Answer 2

I don't know of an immediate cure, but I know of some remedies that will aid in your recovery:

Before and during your partying, drink plenty of liquids other than alcohol or caffeine containing beverages. Hang-overs are caused by dehydration, impurities in the drinks such as sulfates and may be a sign of alcohol dependence depending on your tolerance and frequency of occurrence. Also don't party on an empty stomach, the alcohol will enter the blood much faster if there isn't a buffer in place.

After the party, if possible keep drinking those liquids and eat burnt toast. Burnt toast contains carbon which will aid in neutralizing the remaining alcohol. There is also some pills you can take prior to your party available at Walgreens and stores like that may also help. Also check out www.howstuffworks.com for additional tips.

Answer 3

Strangely enough, a drink or two will immediately take care of a hangover. Be careful not to drink too much or you'll only delay the hangover until the next day and it'll be worse. Two or three drinks tops will get you over the hangover.

Answer 4

I swear this works for me...and I have had some doozies where I could barely move. Take a warm to hot bath in epsom salt water...and go heavy on the epsom salts, like a whole 2 quart carton in a full tub. Get there as soon as you can drag yourself and run the water. You may actually by laying by the toilet so it could be an easy task...just reach up there if you can and spin the old faucet...that's it. Might help to make sure before you go out...that your faucet isn't really tight, just tight enough to keep from dripping. Lay there, submerged as much as you can, just your nose sticking out to breathe, for about 20 minutes. Epsom salts is a detox, the salt itself, and the heat and the salt both bring on a sweat. After soaking, drain the water and shower with shampoo and a good soap, get the toxins off your skin. If you oversoak in the tub, you aren't sucking poisons OUT of your body, you are absorbing them back in from your icky bathwater. Good rule of thumb is when you feel like warming up the water, don't, just drain it and go for the warm shower. By the end of your bath/shower you should feel a LOT better. I do. As soon as you can keep it down, drink water because you are dehydrated and the epsom salts, along with pulling toxins out of you, also pulled fluid. And eat someting with a little starch, and a little grease. Like peanut butter and cracker or a fried egg and toast. Other drinks that are good? Something with caffeine if you have a headache, gatorade or the sugar free equivalents that they have now. Some tea. But water is what your body is really screaming for. You may also benefit from something that will make you poop, NOT the runs, just a good dump, like Metameucil...get alllll the poisons out of your system. But maybe you are not having a problem with that. If you actually have the diarrhea, try to stop it because it is dehydrating you more.
