Hangovers

Not as bad after a night on lager
6 years ago
I have personally found that the better the quality of what I am drinking...eg I can drink Becks, which conforms to the old purity laws all night without getting messy and with out being hungover the next day, but if I drink cheap nasty stuff I'm a wreck and I wind up hungover...thus it's the preservatives and crud that mess you up, not the alcohol.
Re-hydrate
6 years ago
If I'm sober enough to get a glass or two of water in me before I go to bed and keep a glass or two by my bed, it lessens my hangover. Re-hydrating I believe is part of the secret. Sometimes I feel so bad the next day even my hair hurts! In that case feeling sorry for myself on the couch with a jug of water and a Tylenol or two is the best I can come up with. Not the healthiest cure but at least it stills some of the self-inflicted torture and agony.

I agree with Sassy. Drink lots of water. It's good for what 'ales' you. Or, just drink a bunch more beer.
LOL..........

you might not think it, but your body, in a hangover, is actually going through withdrawls, so sometimes the "hair o' the dog'' is the best bet. However, your body also needs salts and water. I find a bananna (potasium salts) and lots of water are the best. Advil or tylenol the night before going to bed can help, but asprin thins blood (as does booze) and is not recomended.

ooops, I mean hangovers. After all the beautiful beer, I know it's very hard to drink water, but I know it helps to down some water before retiring.

In the UK, how do you tell a person drunk or having a hangover is from Cornwall? He says "I'm Hanging"
Water
5 years ago
The water idea is true because of the dehydration factor. Also, if you can stand it, try eating a couple of big tablespoons of straight honey. The sugars more easily get into your system. Fresh ginger is good too. You can make very strong ginger tea by boiling chopped fresh fresh ginger for about 5 minutes then letting it steep for 5 minutes. Add lots of honey and, bingo, hangover helper!

If you get drunk take a aspirin before... especially if you will be drinking wines my doctors way to survive too much wine in his lions club..dont ask me why but it works tried it more than a hundred times..even with the Amarone di Valpolicella 16% alc.
Drink water! Even if you are drinking beer you dehydrate....

My god...

EAT SOMETHING while you drink beer or wine, and drink water at the end of your party or whatever and then drink water again before going to bed.

Hangovers How Not To Have One
1 year ago

If you can party durring the day, have a good dinner and lots of water before bed. If not i suggest drinking juice that has a lot of potassium in it like orange bannana and then some water and maybe an advil if you do this you can drink lots and still feel great in the morning. That is the way i do it.

I generally drink at night so I try to have dinner first, water after, ibuprofen before bed if the headache is starting and LOTS of sleep - as much as I can get the next day.  Hardly ever hungover...
