Need a good hangover remedy

Hey everyone, I'm going to be in two different weddings within two weeks at the end of this month. With rehearsal dinners and the receptions, I'm probably going to be consuming more alcohol in two weeks than I have all summer. If anyone have a way of feeling better in the morning after a night of drinking, please fill me in. And yes, tequila will be involved!

Re: Need a good hangover remedy

certian chemicals in RAW eggs have been proven to reduce the impact of a hangover.

avacados, bananas, and crackers are great foods to get into your system BEFORE you go to sleep. these foods contain electrolytes that aid in the absorption of water in your body's cells.

also, try to stay up atleast an hour after you complete drinking before you hit the sack. one last tip, do not sleep for that long. try to set the alarm for 4-5 hours. then you must get up and get some water into your system. try once again to consume electrolytes.

any citrus juice would be good to drink in the morning right when you wake up. this is because they have potassium just like the fruits i mentioned earlier that you should eat before you go to bed. also, simple carbs absorb quickly into your system to allow any function in your body to take place at a quicker pace.

i suggest juice before you get any solid foods into your system. atleast i have an uneasy stomach when i awake the following morning after a night of drinking.

(many other people on here will just say build your tolerance)

Drink a lot of water while drinking.

For the morning after, drink Powerade.

Re: Need a good hangover remedy

Drink water before sleep, 2 powerades straight away when you wake up. Eat relatively unprocessed foods for the first 2 meals - things like bananas and yoghurt. Avoid greasy crap.

Re: Need a good hangover remedy

Don't mix your hard liquer, beer, and wine. No remedy on earth will save you if you mix things. I, personally, would avoid tequila at all costs. I got wasted on tequila for my 21 and it was the ONLY time a hangover lasted all day and I was unable to properly function.

Like other people said, it's all about keeping you hydrated. Water and powerade work great but I've heard that baby drink Pediolite works the best. Never tried it but my brother swears by it.

Re: Need a good hangover remedy

Mixing drinks is a myth. It makes no difference to the rate at which your body can absorb/process alcohol. Mix away!

Not really, been there done that, its not all its hyped up to be, especially in college. Just pointing out that for me at least having a drink the next day eases the headache. Besides I have whats knowned as a "reverse hangover". I wake up fine and by the end of the day I feel like I have a train run over me. Strange but true.

"Hair of the dog" theory, Twospirits. Works for me - except for the couple of times I have thrown up my stomach lining.

Re: Need a good hangover remedy

mixing depends on the person...causes problems to some people, not to others. i had 1 beer and 3 shots of vodka and a had a decent hangover the next day. 15 shots of vodka and i just felt weird...not sick.

anyways, pound tons of water before you go to bed and pretty much do what everyone else suggested

Apparently you're not much of a drinker. If you were, you'd know what I was talking about.

Re: Need a good hangover remedy

I don't mean to be crude...but gatorade, 2 advil and a good blowjob was my trusted college remedy. One rehydrates, one dulls the pain and the last increases blood flow to help speed the effects of the first two.
