  1. Yes, don't drink so much.


  2. please see the following article:

  3. Lots and lots of water and vitamin c like orange juice

  4. good ol fry up!

  5. time & PLENTY of water.

  6. well i might be a bit late now but the night when you are drunk drink a pint of water and take 2 paracetamols before you to bed nd the next day you will be right as Raine!!!!!!!! try it next time then post me as best answer! hope i helped!!

  7. A cooked breakfast and a great big dump works for me

  8. heaps of water. my mate thinks that energy drinks help but hey he throws up alot so yeah just stay in bed and read or sleep

  9.     * Berocca - Puts the vitamin B back in, as well as the big glass of water it's mixed with. It's probably best to do this before you go out.

        * Coke - Fizz for the nausea, liquid for the dehydration, and a caffeine and sugar hit to make you feel a bit more lively.

        * Coffee - Same as Coke but without the bubbles to help ease the nausea. Try it with honey instead of sugar since the fructose is absorbed quicker than the sucrose in normal sugar, and it's better for you.

        * Ginseng - It's been noted that since caffeine is a diuretic like alcohol, it can actually make the dehydration worse, so try the herbal equivalent instead.

        * Vegemite On Toast - Something in your stomach is good, and salty is even better. Plus you get a Vitamin B top up. The same reasons also make peanut butter a good choice, but the oily nature might make some sensitive stomachs feel a bit yucky. If you do try try this one, skip the butter and just have dry toast.

        * Cold Pizza - Who knows, but it seems to work.

        * Asprin - Simply attends to the headache and does nothing for the level of alcohol in your system. Don't take them before you go to bed.

        * Bananas - Sugar in the form of fructose, and potassium, which is one of the things you lose lots of when you drink. Bananas are also a natural antacid to help with the nausea, and are high in magnesium which can help relax those pounding blood vessels causing that hangover headache. For a variety of reasons try a peanut butter, honey and banana sandwich on white bread.

        * Vitamin C - Another thing the alcohol takes out that you're advised to put back in as soon as possible. Orange juice, tomato, a 600mg Vitamin C tablet - doesn't matter, just do it.

        * A Hot Bath - The heat will sweat out the toxins that are causing all the problems. You'll feel a bit woozy at first but go with it and you'll feel better afterwards.

        * Chocolate Milk - This one was sent in by Michael and sounds like it's worth a try - "Regarding your hangover remedies, I would like to suggest chocolate milk. The store bought kind seems to work best, due to ease of attainment (unless you blew all your money at the bar hoping to get lucky), quietness (no loud banging of the teaspoon trying to mix the homemade stuff), and ease of use (the opening is the perfect fit when you have the jitters and no messy clean up). The suggested minimum dosage is the pint ( 1/2 litre) size, though the new quart (litre) can be used for extreme episodes. Other than the rehydration factor, I find that chocolate milk offers the tummy a soothing coating for the nausea. It also repletes some of the vitamins your body is now woefully lacking. The sugars (lactose & sucrose) and salt seem to be the perfect balance of the carb/salt fix. Many women can attest to the beneficial, relatively inexpensive, and legal effects of chocolate against depression, whether physiological or psychological. Last, the flavor seems to do wonders for that ghastly "did I try to mop the floor with my tongue?" taste in your mouth. So, on your way home, stop by your convenient convenience store, head on over to the cooler, grab one more "cold one" (chocolate milk, that is), and bring it home for the morning. Your mother shall compliment you on at least one healthy drinking habit."

        * Sauerkraut - Casey reckons "I know only a few people who will try this hangover remedy but those who do it swear by it, sauerkraut. It makes some sense - the acid/nadh balance and the nutritional value - but from first hand experience it works rediculously well. I've seen it work in the most extreme cases." If you can't bring yourself to eat the actually chunky bits, try sauerkraut juice (out of the sauerkraut bottle) mixed with tomato juice, or a good helping of Sauerkraut Hangover Soup (recipe below). Actually while doing a bit of poking around checking out the vailidity of this claim, it appears that eating raw cabbage has been used right through history for preventing as well as curing hangovers, so Casey could well be onto something here.  

  10. Fry up, alka-seltzers and lots of water.  Bring your duvet to the couch and watch tv all day.  You need to look after yourself when you are "ill"!!!!

    Nobody - its actually called "Irn Bru"

  11. To prevent a hangover......drink a pint of water before you go to bed / orange juice --> the vitamin c helps speed up metabolism of alcohol

    also make sure you eat a meal before drinking......or another way is to just drink responsibly....but it seems like the one most people have issues with :P

    anyway to cure a hangover once you've got it, a fry up for breakfast has always helped me and there's some scientific proof behind it --> there's an amino acid called cysteine, present in meat and eggs which is believed to be good at clearing out our toxins but most importantly drink LOTS of water - the reason you have a hangover is because you're dehydrated! So that's goint to help you loads! Fruit juices are equally good - as they'll replenish all your lost vitamins and give you a well needed energy boost..........if you don't have work the next day then the best way is to sleep it off!!!!

    Hope that helps x

  12. your bed.

    shouldnt get drunk anyway ;)
