Ouch, I need a cure too.

Oh my head hurts.

I think I drank too much.

Sister keeps throbbing my head just by talking. Anyone got a muzzle?

BTW:

Chocolate Milk and chitting to cure the hangover.

The best 'cure' is not to over indulge in alcohol.I drank a glass of
30 proof eggnog and felt great.I should mention that in the past
two weeks I have drank 3 bottles of that 30 proof eggnog.

For me I found the thing that helped me the most a few weeks back and that is a Vitamin B complex... not just that but a time released complex.. the reason being is that Vitamin B doesn't last in your body long before it's flushed out and it does A LOT to help you feel better... it's one of the first things you become deficient on if you're drinking lots of alcohol.

Second thing would be to point out that while water is hydrating, it's not NEARLY as hydrating as a sports drink or even best? Pedialyte .. it's designed for infants who are dehydrated so it lacks the added sugars and sticks the high levels of what is needed .. namely Potassium, Zinc, small amounts of Dextrose and Fructose instead of Sucrose for carbs and of course Water.. Pedialyte is far more effective than water alone due to the simple fact it's higher in electrolytes which alcohol also depletes depletes.

So ..

1. Time released vitamin B complex, smart to take it before your night out, and then after.
2. Pedialyte.. probably two packets the night before, and 2-3 the next day.. don't go nuts with it though.
3. A hearty breakast with eggs .. eggs contain cysteine which helps a lot
4. Pain relever, just incase ( the next day.. not the night of .. could be dangerous taking pain killers with alcohol in your system! )

I can't stress how much Vitamin B supplements help, but if they aren't time release then they have much less benefit because they will be depleted the next trip or two to the bathroom.. They even make vitamin B patches you can wear ..

This comes from 15 years of new years eve parties, birthdays and weekends out with friends.. for my NYE I was doing shots of a drink called liquid coc aine, shots of vodka and a few beers.. any other year I'd be DOA all day today but I was up at 8am feeling pretty great.

Your best cure is still to just abstain .. as boring as that is =) .. GO VITAMIN B COMPLEX!

Most of the "cure" I've found is in what you do BEFORE your night out, or during.. not after.. if you're already feeling it then the "cure" takes a while to kick in ... taking a time released vitamin b complex before going out and then before bed makes a WHOLE world of difference because it will continue to release throughout the night..

I think B is often overlooked because the normal supplements are flushed out so quickly, especially when you add in alcohol since it forces you to the bathroom more than usual ..

Thank you, Beez, you always make me laugh. Are you some famous comedian hiding out on ATS?


I always feel best when I get out in the fresh air, I know, who wants to go outside feeling like that. But it does seem to help, along with mega aspirin, Gatorade and fatty food. A little hair of the dog doesn't hurt either!

And locking the kids up somewhere till its over.

fried chicken(with special HERB seasoning) beer and time, if i ever have a hangover i get some chicken and a quality larger or ale depending on how bad my stomach feels, and sit on the couch and watch a movie, i havent had to do this in a while cause i learned to keep myself in check when it comes to drinking, however i do have the occasional night of over doing myself, and that remedy worked well when i was a kid, and it still works today.
