Answer 2

You get a hangover because your liver has worked overtime detoxifying your body. It needs time to cleanse itself. You can help it along all by drinking dandelion tea which is available in health food stores and even in some supermarkets now. I would recommend making a big pot of dandelion tea and drinking it before you sleep and again after you get up in the morning. To get the full benefit put about 2 heaping tablespoons into a big pot (about a liter) of boiling water and let it steep for 5 to 10 minutes. Strain and drink. To completely cleanse your liver, make a fresh pot and drink it all day instead of water. The hangover will disappear.
Just a word of caution, because it acts on the liver, some people do get a little dizzy, when they first start drinking it. So please be careful.

I find lots of ice cold sparkling mineral water to re-hydrate, there is supposed to be something in eggs that helps a hangover, so I always have them scrambled with a bit of brown sauce. then 2 pain killers, very strong (if you have any) cos they will knock you out. Then a few hours sleep, Then i always have a Chinese take away beef green pepper with extra chillies. Then its time for bed, I did this yesterday after going out on saturday night and drinking lots of vodka and a bottle of champagne, I also fell over about ten times, landed on my tooth and chipped it took the skin of my chin and have a lump the size of an egg on my head, I twisted my ankle and have cut my knees. So you can Imadgin how sorry I felt for myself yesterday! I will never wear those heels again, so i think the best cure is not to drink, Hapy days!

Answer 4

The only thing to cure a hangover is drinking plenty of water. The headaches you get in the morning are caused by dehydration - the tissues in your head are drying out and are stretching across your brain and causing you pain. Paracetamol will help relieve the symptoms. You could also drink water between alcoholic drinks on your night out and before you go to bed to reduce the effects in the morning.

After years of research, I've become somewhat of an expert in this field.....

Answer 5

I never need hangover cures b/c I never have hangovers. Before you go out for the night, put out 2 aspirin, a glass, and bread. When you come home, eat two pieces of the bread and drink a full glass of water with your aspirin before you climb in bed. Works miracles.

Answer 6

You need a healthy dose of Tincture of Time.

All that really cures a hangover is lots of time. Sleep as much as you can.

To alleviate the hangover somewhat, drink lots of water before you go to bed, and drink water, and juices after you get up. You need to rehydrate yourself.

The best hangover cure is not to get one. Stay away from sweet sticky drinks when you plan to drink heavy. And drink your liquor either straight on the rocks, or with water. Higher proof liquor also seems to give less hangover trouble as well, as long as you don't mix it with Coke or other sweet stuff.

Answer 7

Cold kebab the morning after a night on warm real ale.

Answer 8

Dirty Knees is right on the money with this one - orange juice -OR- chocolate milk. Ice cold.. with a couple Advil. Then go back to bed for a good 12-14 hours.

Answer 9

I've found that a couple of paracetamols for the headache, a can of coke for the caffeine plus the fizz lifts the stale gas off your stomach when you belch, and then a bar of chocolate for an instant energy rush.

Answer 10

The only hangover cure I have found to work is actually knowing that point, ( found through experience,) once passed will do the damage in the morning.

Answer 11

Actually just take two multivitamins and drink some water. Actually you should have done that before you went to sleep, it probably won't help you now.
