Home Cures for Hangover

drink to your health 2Where alcohol goes, more or less hangover follows. You partied last night, had a great time and next day, you are just not able to open your eyes. Your feet wobble each time you try to stand and your head is splitting up.

You are suffering from the after effects of alcohol. So what can you do about a hangover? Not much really in short time, actually there are no short cuts to get over hangover. Time is the best and most effective treatment. Symptoms usually disappear in 8 to 24 times.

  • Alcohol dehydrates your system. Hence sip on water, fruit juices to replenish the lost fluid.
  • Consuming foods rich in fructose like fruit juices may decrease hangover’s intensity.
  • Eating bland foods that contain complex carbohydrates like toasts or crackers will combat low blood glucose levels.
  • If your head is splitting up, try having an aspirin.
  • You can try an antacid to relieve nausea and stomach pains.
  • Sleep can ease fatigue experienced by your body.

How can you keep hangover at bay?

  • Drink slowly–Alcohol metabolises in the body at it’s own pace. The faster you drink the more intoxicated you will be.
  • Drink on a full stomach–Alcohol seeps in the body sooner if you drink on an empty stomach. Hence keep appetisers close when you are enjoying your drink.
  • Say no to bubbly–If you spike your drink with aerated beverages, you’ll get drunk sooner than you imagined.

Most importantly, before you hit the sack drink a glass or two of orange juice to compensate for the loss of fluid. Moreover, vitamin C in orange juice will speed up the metabolism of alcohol.
