How to cure a hangover

How do you cure a hangover? You either don't drink at all or you stop when you start feeling really good. Too late for that, huh?  Here are ten hangover cures: written by kate Johns

EAT A FULL MEAL

*Here is a hangover cure to use before you start pounding back those great tasting pilsners-eat a full meal.

*This will help slow down the alcohol from absorbing into your bloodstream.

*Make sure you eat a meal loaded with carbohydrates. Pasta and bread will soak up the alcohol, and help slow it down.

DRINK TONS OF WATER

*According to the Times Online, you should drink a lot of water the next day for a hangover cure.

*Drinking, alcohol causes your body to dehydrate, and then you will ache all over from the acid build up.

JUICE

*According to Ask Men.com, a hangover cure is to drink juice or take vitamins the next morning when you wake up with a terrible headache, and nausea from a hangover.

*Natural sugar in the juice and the vitamins will help to bring up your blood sugar levels making you feel a little more human.

TAKE A HIKE

*Another way to cure a hangover is to go for a short walk.

*This will help eliminate the lactic acid that builds up when you drink alcohol.

DON'T BE A SUGAR DADDY

*Avoid having a lot of sugar the night before, to avoid having to use a hangover cure. *It's the same as when you eat a ton of candy, you end up with a headache.

* Stick with beer.

ALCOHOL MINGLING

*Avoid mixing alcohol with beer, and cocktails.

*This is your mantra to say when drinking to stay safe: "Beer before liquor, never been sicker. Liquor before beer, you're in the clear."

HEADACHE CURE

*Reaching for headache medication is another hangover cure.

Although, avoid taking acetaminophen while drinking or the next day.

* Take ibuprofen instead.

*Alcohol when mixed with acetaminophen can become toxic to your liver. Your liver can't process it fast enough and you can end up with major flu symptoms, or even worse, dead.

CAFFEINE

*For another hangover cure, avoid caffeine the next day.

*Caffeine will just speed up your metabolism, causing you to be a wide-awake drunk.

GINGERALE

*Hangover cure number nine is to drink flat ginger ale the morning after a major bender.

*According to Askmen.com, flat ginger ale helps soothe your queasy stomach. Written by Kate Johns

JUST SAY NO

*Don't mix  rum, brandy and red wine  together, because they contain high concentrations of congeners that are compounds that make a hangover worse.

Of course you know the best hangover cure, right? Don't get drunk. Take it easy, don't mix drinks, eat a large meal the night before, and drink tons of water all night long to dilute the alcohol. COPYRIGHT 2012!!
