- Drink fruit juice because it contains fructose, which helps burn alcohol faster.
- Eat crackers and honey. Honey contains fructose and the crackers help absorb alcohol.
- Try some aspirin or willow-bark for pain relief.
- Drink some broth made from bouillon cubes to replace the salt and potassium in your body.
- Alcohol causes dehydration so drink plenty of water. Its best to drink one glass of alcohol and then one glass of water during the night but you still need to drink water the next day.
- Eat small amounts of carbohydrates to replenish amino acids lost by over indulging in alcohol.
- Have two cups of coffee to reduce the swelling of your blood vessels. Do not drink more than two cups or you may end up with the caffeine jitters, as well as a hangover.
- Eat a good meal if you can manage it. It will help replace all the nutrients you have lost.
- Sleep it off. The only way to get over drinking too much the night before is time. Time will heal you and time will give your body a chance to remove all the poison from your system.
- B complex vitamins will help shorten the duration of your hangover. If you plan to drink a lot, often make sure you take a supplement regularly. If it is a one –off you can benefit from a vitamin supplement before you go to bed or first thing in the morning.
The best thing for a hangover is to not drink in the first place. A hangover is your body’s warning that you have been poisoned. Listen to your body.
