Hangover cures

[Chris]

I agree with Billy that there's no cure for a hangover. Honestly the best thing to do is just pace yourself the night before and don't get battered, drink more slowly and have a pint of something non-alcoholic now and then.

Having spent some time looking it up a while ago, the causes of a hangover are not well understood and the medical community's not interested in researching it as it serves as a disincentive to drink to excess.

Me I just stay on the same form of alcohol but every other drink is water/self drink. Wine or spirits only...3 pints of beer and I'm anyone's!

I just man the f*** up and get on with it.

Some brilliant comments!

I should have said what I usually do. It doesn't actually cure a hangover but makes you feel better for the next 6 hours or so before you need another sleep.

- Water before bed, it does reduce or get rid. But you have to remember. Lol

Routine is:

- Coffee
- McDonalds or fry up
- full fat coke
- some sort of tablet and water and/or more coffee.

I spent years researching the best hangover cure at Uni.

The one that worked for me was a 500ml bottle of coke after waking up followed by a fry up.

Strawberry yazoo milkshake is a big help

If it's a bad nausea hangover then time is the only real cure....nothing stays down long enough to help I'm not the young drinker I used to be though so those buggers are few and far between. Especially since I now know which drinks will really turn my guts the day after....Tequila, I'm looking at you.

A milder hangover is usually helped with plenty of water, paracetamol, McDonalds and some fresh air. A Vindaloo Pot Noodle can also be a valuable resource in such times.

A medically proven, quick acting and effective hangover cure must be worth an absolute fortune though. Not sure ethics would stand much of a chance!!

I used to swear by this at uni too, till someone decided to pour a bottle of Amaretto into the same bottle of coke. Had to restart the party at around 5 am

The only thing to sober anybodyup is time - but sugar, food and ibuprofen all help!

I haven't had a hangover in almost nineteen years
Abstinence is the only cure that worked for me.

Take 500g of vitamin C before bed and drink lots of water. Do the same as soon as you wake up and then hit the coffee.

The best approach is to prevent it by only drinking high end liquor or wine. Fortunately it has been a long, long time since I had a hangover. Nasty experience...and all self inflicted...pity.

Well, after a night of high end whiskey tasting, my head feels a bit on the cloudy side but else fit and well ready for a day of working from home!!
