    You need salt, sugar and water. However you get that into you is up to you, but those are the key elements you need. I recommend some carbs as well if you've got a sicky feeling hangover.

    Weird. When I'm hungover the thought of heavy greasy food makes me nauseous. I always crave fruit and sushi.

    Me too!

    Really spicy ramen noodles. Fills you up, rehydrates you and helps you sweat out all the alcohol! Then a giant diet coke, sorted.

    I usually drink OJ, take a couple of Advil, eat a piece of toast. Sounds lame I know, but the alcohol has dried up the glucose in your body, which is why you feel so lousy, and are looking for BAD food. The jusice will put the glucose back into your system faster than anything else, Read that in Readers Digest over 20 yrs ago. Works for me!
    Drink LOTSA water....try to stay away from caffiene which only dries your system out more.....hang in there! :)

    This is why I keep packs of Nuun and Berocca in the office. Nuun for the electrolytes, berocca for the vits. When I've downed them, I head out and get a bacon roll.

    then tea, lots of tea.

    If you're keen not ruin your heathly eating then you need to keep the sugars and carbs down due to the alcohol you've had! Thing is, these are the very things you'll crave!

    Stick with eggs on wholemeal toast, limit this to one slice of toast......................make it a salad for lunch! Keep off the sugar, pop and caffeine too. Plenty of water though!

    Found this too!!!.... http://www.livestrong.com/article/8386-cure-hangover/
    Hello people int he know,

    I've got a hangover from hell this morning and all I want to do right now is stuff my face with pizza, McDonalds, etc.

    Can you suggest any healthy alternatives? I'm at work and there are a gazillion places around me that sell oh-so-naughty foods that I'm working hard to avoid!

    Any help is much appreciated!

    Most of you are wrong, and your bodies are wrong. Fat and grease are what you might crave, but not what you need. What you need is good healthful nutritious food. A good salad, maybe some pasta with marinara. Nice and light. At the same time, you need water, sugar, and salt...that's where the fat and grease craving comes from. I take a teaspoon of honey to start. You'd be surprised at how much this helps. Feeding your body fat and grease actually gets in the way of recovery, rather than helping.

    But, most reading this will disagree and will carry on. I'm telling you though. I did a lot of research on this.

    If you want to avoid a hangover, simply drink an 8 oz glass of water after every one ounce of alcohol. So, after a beer, glass of wine, mixed drink, or shot, have a glass of water. No hangover. Stay away from sugary drinks. And, no matter how much you drink, you'll wake up hangover free the next day. I promise.
