Luckily, I don't drink enough anymore to get hangovers!
but, it used to be
something greasy to eat before bed & a gatorade w/ 2 aspirins!!!
McDonalds food tends to help with hangovers for me, or taco bell (helps prevent them i mean)0 -
A fried egg cooked in lots of butter with a side of ginger ale. Ibuprofen and rest.0
-
Pedialyte.
I actually have a pharmacological-basis for my recommendation... but it's way too long to type out.
Also, if you chew a couple of glucose tablets before you start drinking and a couple before you go to bed.. that goes a long way to preventing a hangover.0 -
I don't really drink that much anymore, but in college I had two go-to hangover cures
Bojangles Cajun Chicken Sandwich & Sweet Tea
Bacon and Eggs cooked in Bacon Fat
So basically anything greasy
Or the age old answer.... Start drinking again0 -
The smoothie I have for breakfast works great0
-
anything greasy0

exersice! it sucks getting outta bed, but sweat it out!0

2 pints of grapefruit juice and then lay down for an hour or two.0

Take some milk of magnesia before drinking to coat your stomach and prevent absorption, then take two midol with a warm coke before bed. The midol will help with the queasiness and has a built in mild diuretic to help get the alcohol out of your system faster and the carbonation in the warm coke helps speed the breakdown of the midol so it works faster. Don't know if any of this true, but this is the cure-all in my neck of the woods.0

Most of that isn't true. The warm coke would work as well as a cold coke - it's the sugar that's helping. Alcohol inhibits ADH, so it's already acting as a diuretic.. The midol really just helps the headache. Alcohol isn't absorbed in the stomach - the milk of magnesia... I'm not sure how it'd help.0 -
A cold *kitten* shower0

MENUDO! Its the only thing that has ever worked for me.0

I get bad hangovers anymore, and if it is a mild hangover, a light jog followed by a dive into Lake Tahoe does the trick. The only thing that works for a bad hangover for me is sleep. And that is typically not an option.0
-
Soup, nap, then work out... in that order.0
-
It used to be McD's bacon, egg and cheese biscuit. Now...I make sure I don't fall asleep completely wasted. I try to stay up as long as I can. Drink water, take an advil and call it a night.0
-
You get hangovers from dehydration, so around 2, 8oz cups of water before you go to bed will do the job. You will probably wake up a little drunk but no hangover.0
-
oatmeal and half a grapefruit.0
-
an Emergen-C packet, toast, and lots of water... then a nap and some light activity. hope ur feeling better soon :flowerforyou:0
