For the most part the night is very hazzy.

i feel like i am more prone to hangovers than other people so i have to take precautions. usually when i get home, i try to eat something but more importantly i make myself stay up for an hour and drink as much water in that hour as i can. i will be pissing all night and sometimes it is hard to sleep because i have to be piss but doing this will almost completely eliminate my hangover. so it is worth it. any solution involving anything other than water and food is probably bogus.

03-31-2005, 01:53 PM
another drink...and im not kidding...have like a bloody mary or something...it will help...and then drink water as much as u can too

Then you're not rady to be drinking in the first place. /images/graemlins/grin.gif

- Primary cures are sleep and water.
- Secondaries are a hot shower, a good dump, and chewing Excedrin (as per "The Shining")
- Others: cranberry juice, gatorade, vodka, bacon, buffalo shrimp. Blend all with a raw egg and drink in one gulp.

i [censored] you not. it puts gatorade to shame. you'll feel noticably better in ten minutes. i garuntee it- in fact, any time you're dehydrated, some pickle juice chased with water always does the trick.

becides, you're probably a bachelor, which means you'll have a jar full of brine and one pickle in your fridge, right?

Just keep in mind that when you drive drunk you should drive really fast so you aren't on the road as long.

Make some very burnt toast. The charcoal will absorb toxins.

Make yourself some eggs. Eggs contain large amounts of cysteine, the substance that breaks down the hangover-causing toxin acetaldehyde in the liver's easily depleted glutathione. Therefore, eggs can potentially help mop up the left-over toxins.

Eat some bananas, this will replenish the potassium lost to alcohol's diuretic effect. Other potassium-rich foods such as kiwi fruit or sports drinks work just as well.

Replenishing the body's water supply after a night of drinking combats dehydration, and it also helps dilute the leftover byproducts in the stomach. Add salt and sugar to water helps replace the sodium and glycogen lost the night before. Non-caffeinated, non-carbonated sports drinks can achieve the same effect.
Drinking a few glasses of water before going to bed helps fight dehydration after the body finishes breaking down the alcohol.

The fructose -- fruit sugar -- in fruit juice helps to naturally increase the body's energy. Studies have proven that it also increases the rate at which the body gets rid of toxins such as those left over from alcohol metabolism. Fruit juice is also a good idea the morning after because it is high in vitamins and nutrients that were depleted the night before because of alcohol's diuretic effect. Vitamin supplements high in vitamins C and B are also effective.

Aspirin is a non-caffeinated pain reliever and is also in a class of anti-inflammatory drugs known as prostaglandin inhibitors. High levels of prostaglandin have been associated with increased hangover severity. In one study, participants who took a prostaglandin inhibitor before bed reported less of a headache and less nausea and thirst than those who had drank the same amount of alcohol but did not take the prostaglandin inhibitor before bed. If you have a sensitive stomach, though, beware -- taking aspirin after drinking can make your stomach hurt even worse.

Hangover remedies such as Chaser, Sob'r-K Hangover Stopper, RU-21, Berocca and Rebound are highly varied both in price and ingredients, so their effectiveness varies accordingly. They are classified as dietary supplements, meaning:

* They contain vitamins and minerals.
* They do not require a prescription.
* They are usually taken in pill form.

According to Hangover Review, which did a study covering many of over-the-counter hangover cures on the market, the only "medically provable" supplements are Sob'r-K Hangover Stopper, Chaser and Uncle Rummie's Hangover Helper because they make use of the effective filtering qualities of carbon to reduce the number of impurities the body has to process (see "Burnt Toast" in the last section). Sob'r-K Hangover Stopper is inexpensive compared to the others, uses the highest-grade carbon and the concoction is patented; therefore, Hangover Review deemed it the smartest choice. As for RU-21, marketed as a secret KGB pill, the manufacturer says specifically that it is not an anti-hangover pill but a supplement for detoxification. (By the way, its main ingredients -- dextrose, L-Glutamine and vitamin C -- can be found in high amounts in everyday foods). Rebound has the same ingredients as RU-21 plus a few other vitamins and oddities such as "young barley grass juice powder," but it is still basically a multivitamin. Berocca, again, is not a hangover cure -- it's simply a multivitamin that claims to increase energy naturally (through vitamins).

The secret to most of these purported "miracle cures" may in fact be the amount of water a drinker ingests when taking them. Many require taking a pill (or two) with a glass (or two) of water before drinking alcohol, and then continuing to take the pills over the course of the evening with full glasses of water, before bed with a full glass of water, and upon waking with a full glass of water. The hydration alone greatly improves the chances of having little-to-no hangover, and the vitamins in the pills just give it a little, albeit expensive, boost.

pedialyte works wonders and I highly recommend it.

Eating a full meal/multivitamins and drinking gatorade before getting drunk will do wonders. Give your body some time to absorb the food/gatorade as alcohol blocks the absorption.

"Revive" Vitamin Water. 1 or 2 16oz servings (depending on how bad the hangover is) with a couple aspirin does it every time.
