Anyone got a hangover cure??

Answer 1

Drink Pedialite..that baby drink...it really really works...alot of bands and athletes drink it after they go out drinking...It's really good stuff.

Answer 2

The cure needs to begin before the hangover starts. Now clearly, the answer should be that you shouldn't drink at all ... but that might not be realistic. Try a product called "Chasers" they work well -- also Pepcid AC or Tums (etc.) can help if you remember to take them while drinking -- they soak up the bad part of the liquor and help your body to process. The other thing that works well preventively is instead of eating late at night drink water -- drink as much as possible. NEVER TAKE ASPIRIN before bed after drinking. Just drink water. When you wake up, more water. If it is a really bad hangover, and you can do so, these things also help:

1. Hair of the dog: have a drink. Your brain is suffering from withdrawral. There is a whole medical reason for this involving synapses etc., but suffice to say it is the reason Bloody Mary's are so popular at brunch.
2. Having an orgasm seems to rush endorphins that help (at least temporarily
3. Stick to your usual routine. Eat normally, drink water normally even if it feels bad.
4. Sweat it out. No excuses -- hit the gym especially hard after drinking.

check out this guy's Website too it is called "How Not to Get Drunk" ... pretty funny how the goes about stuff ... http://notdrunknotsober.blogspot.com/

Answer 3

firstly people "not drinking" is not a hangover cure, it's a hangover prevention.

Right firstly drinking water helps, but the human body is quite poor at retaining water (unless you're a menopausal woman) so sports drinks are often better. A banana helps to replace further loss of potassium, but by far the BEST hangover cure and prevention (if you want to still drink that is) is cysteine. Many hangover cures contain eggs, an excellent source of cysteine. Cysteine is a co-factpr for the detoxification of alcohol and its bi products, much of our trouble with hangovers is that we run out so the bi-products hang around making us feel ****. Taking cysteine should help your body clear the alcohol from your system more effectively and I find I get drunk slower too. You can buy L-cysteine tablets in most health shops. 1 tablet (~100-500mg) before you go out and then again when you get back seems to do the job.

The Top 10 cures

THINK JUICY THOUGHTS
...then drink 'em. The water in juice rehydrates your body, the fructose (sugar) it contains helps burn up the alcohol leaving you feeling just peachy.



QUIT FOR LIFE
Smoking doesn't just kill, it makes hangovers a lot more miserable along the way. Quit and your hangovers will be 50% less nasty. Guaranteed.



EAT YOUR BEANS
Eat your rice, grains, cereals, peas & nuts too. They're all stuffed with Vitamin B1, or Thiamine, which helps you metabolise the grog AND stabilises the nervous system. Lack of B1 is often what causes infamous DTs, or Delirium Tremors.



MONKEY BUSINESS
Ronan from Ireland says, "eat a bananna as they contain potassium which is guaranteed to revitalise your body after a heavy session."



HAVE A VB WITH YOUR VB
A Vitamin B before beers will make a kegload of difference in the morning. Vitamin B2 is good but B1's the best. For all you Americans out there VB is a tasty Australian beer.



THE ITALIAN RESTAURANT
Not just good for getting pissed at, good for getting well again the next day too. Through extra virgin olive oil and the liberal use of fresh ripe tomatos, Italians have learned the secret of getting real plump without getting heart disease and curing hangovers at the same. So while the wine gives you a hangover, dinner gives you the cure. Pure genius.



V8 IS GREAT
It's better than great, it's the best. Stacked with the mother of all hangover cures, tomato juice then sprinkled with every vege known to humankind, one drop of V8 is said by legend to contain an entire bowl of vegetables. If only it tasted like Coke.



COLLECT THE CAPS
Bill from Bondi, Australia says, "When I'm out on the squirt I take the top from every beer I drink and put it in my pocket. When I get home i count the caps and that's how many glasses of water I gotta get through. Works even better when you're seeing double."



THINK GINGER
"The best and greatest cure for that groggy nausia feeling is drinking ginger. It's been uses by boaties to cure sea sickness (hence nausia) for hundreds of years. If you buy sea sick tablet they will be 100% ginger. Go down to the Vege shop and buy some ginger root. If you have a juice extractor crush up the ginger put in some Orange Juice and scull. It burns ya through but it works like a dream!"



KUDZU
Not strictly healthy but close to nature, Kudzu is a Chinese vine used for curing hangovers as early as 200BC. In 400AD it was written into the Chinese Pharmacopeia as a kick **** cure and it's still being used today, possibly as close as your local health food store.

Answer 5

In my experience drink a lot of water and get some rest. There is no miracle cure. If you drink a lot of water before you go to sleep after drinking a lot, your hangover wont be as bad the next day.

***Also I know some people are going to suggest you take some Aspirin or Tylenol. DON'T. Or you should at least understand that doing so can increase the risk of liver damage. Also don't drink caffeinated soda. Caffeine is a diuretic and will dehydrate you further. Drink water and rest. :)

Answer 6

urrrrgggh I hate the feeling of a hangover!!!! I never drink pop but I find that a glass of full fat coca cola does the trick EVERYTIME!!!! I have been hanging round the toilet many a time trying and hoping 'this is the last time I bring anything up' and I've tried what my friends have said 'drink fresh orange' have a small piece as in a square of chocolate but none of the above helps EXCEPT the black stuff!!!! I can feel like I'm absolutely dying at the point where I want to just curl away forever and as soon as I have a drink of coke...I feel myself slowly coming round!! NEVER FAILS :-)

Answer 7

Drinking supresses ADH (Anti Diuretic Hormone) which makes you urinate the fluid that your body would normally retain. Stay well hydrated before, during, and after with some combination of ice water or orange juice, stay away from something like coffee which also acts as a diuretic. Also healthy eating is a must because alcohol can deplete the body of important nutrients, if all else fails, make sure to take a multi-vitamin daily.

Alcohol is absorbed directly through the stomach so sometimes it can be helpful to eat something like spaghetti or pizza to slow the effects down.

I've heard the oxygen inhalation thing too, but I haven't tried it.

Answer 8

Drink always with soda and keep up your limit that all. This will take some time say maybe three months of continous drinking and after that you will get accustomed to drinking within limits. One night affairs always result in hangovers because our body naturally rejects alcohol and that is why drinking is a vice and bad for health.

Answer 9

Well considering I have had them virtually every weekend for 18 years I think I have the hang of it now !

1. Lots of water through out the night when you wake up and paracetamol before the morning

2. Vitamin C in the morning in Orange juice etc and a multivitamin tablet

3. Lots of naughty food with carbs n fat strtegically through out the day

4. More water and tea through out the day

5. A swim and steam at lunch time or after work - if you can manage it

Hope this helps and good luck ha ha !

Rocky :0)

Answer 10

A glass of water for every alcoholic drink you had, paracetamol and your bed! When you party on down next time, drink one coke to every alcoholic drink. You'll be in the loo all night getting rid of excess but you won't get a hangover as bad or not at all!

Answer 11

I have:- 1 cup of tea, 1 Pint of cola, and 1 Pint of water - then have something to eat - I favour a fried egg sanga but anything of your own choice - wait about an hour and you should start feeling human again !

Also try a pint of water before bed the night before the hangover - this also helps
