hangover remedies
 
Hey everyone since I am trying to cure a hangover at the moment I was just wondering what the more experienced drinkers do to avoid or cure a hangover the morning after. Or even better what drinks to avoid so that the hangover isn't so bad. Been relatively unexperienced with this sort of thing myself I really don't know of anything that would help.

Lots of Florida Orange Juice usually does the job for me. I prefer Tropicana With Pulp.

Do some sports............such as swimming or running some miles.......or some trekking on the mountain

SFDMALEX 09-16-2004 04:51 PM

How not to get a hang over.......................

1) Dont mix

2) Drink just enough to get you drunk(if thats what your goal is)


And when you do have a hangover take an alka zeltzer or something...........you just have to live through it I guess. Not much you can do.

Have a drink with a small alcoholic content, it helps balance the system.

Gallardo_lover 09-16-2004 04:58 PM

Here's a sure cure for a hangover, the next day when you feel like absolute shit, have a liquid food supplement. I normally have one of my nutritional shakes which I take after gym, it rehydrates and replaces essential nutrients.

If you're planning a big night drinking, get some liver tablets and take one before you go out and one in the morning when you wake up. If you don't want to take medication, you can get some vitamins like "Milk Thistle" which will do the same.

To reduce your hangover, choose one drink and stick to it, don't mix your drinks throughout the evening. (eg) beers, with spirits with wine with champaigne... Mixing is a recipe for disaster.

MOST important is to NOT drink and drive... This is a vehicle forum and I can't emphasize enough the importance of not fucking up somebody elses life! :fadein:

abbor 09-16-2004 04:58 PM

I usually don't drink so much that I get a hangover..
That's the usual idea I have.. But if I do, I just let it go over :wink:

gigdy 09-16-2004 07:14 PM

My cure is to clean the sand out of your vagina and stop complaining. :wink:

i saw on the news that colored licquor are more prone to give hangovers then clear ones. but i was supposed to remember that drinks like vodka and gin still have alcohol.

muffinman2002 09-16-2004 08:02 PM

Yeah I just let the body work itself out on this one. You don't have to worry about me drinking and driving I know what that is all about I've heard way to many horror stories. I'm not one of those people who are out drinking all the time either and only go out drinking maybe once or twice a month. Can't really bring myself to spend all that money on something that will give me nothing to show for it. I like to spend the little money I do have on my car, atv or snowmobile.

Apac102 09-16-2004 09:10 PM

I usually drink a gateorade in the morning. It really helps me get over it and its something you can find everywhere. Ive never heard of that Dafalgan codeine...what the hell is that?

chipanggo 09-16-2004 10:00 PM

the important thing is to drink plenty of fluids: water, soda, juice, gatorade. hangovers are caused by dehydration. my tip is drink a glass or two of water before going to bed and tthen drink juice or gatorade when you get up.

Junk2006 09-16-2004 10:06 PM

Stay drunk

Junk2006 09-16-2004 10:09 PM

you can buy hangover tablets and shit now, im not sure if you guys have "beroca" in america, it's a fizzy drink with a shitload of vitimans and minerials you lose from alchol!

ohhhh.. and never drink absinthe!

jamberl 09-16-2004 11:03 PM

A good solution can be to experiment with which drinks give you the worst hangover- e.g. I can get a headache the next day from only having a few beers, but I can get DESTROYED on burbon and feel fine in the morning!

You might find that your body reacts differently to different spirits/beers.

nthfinity 09-16-2004 11:25 PM

hangover? macdonalds breakfast... or so im told
but i dont really drink enough to get those. 3 beers is a lot for me these days... taste so damn good :)

ive only once had a hangover... i was young, (im not much older ;) )and stupid... all but 3 shots of a 1/5 of Rum... i missed a few classes that day :-\

antonioledesma 09-16-2004 11:41 PM

oh, so many solutions to a hangover. Here in my country we have the classic "drink a cold beer" (not recommended, because your stomach is hot because of the booze); "go and have some birria" (a meat, chili, pepper, soup like meal, but again, doctors don't recommend spicy foods); "drink lots of water, serum (the water with minerals, salts, etc that give you when u're dehydradeted)

nchs09 09-17-2004 12:50 AM

drink the same ammount u pissed the night u were drinking.... is the only way

u piss cuase ur liver is trying to clean out all the booz.... and the hangover is feeling of the loss of liquid in the system = dry mouth, headache due to low water levels in the brain.. muscle aches due to less moisture in the muscles


so before u go to sleep drink about 5 glasses of water.. big glasses and u shouldnt get one :mrgreen:



but if u cant take hangovers, ur not a drinker... :mrgreen:

Wutputt 09-17-2004 07:55 AM

1) Don't drink to much :D (not really the solution)
2) Don't mix
3) If you want to mix, don't go form a high alcohol percentage drink to one with a lower alcohol percentage. Always go up.
4) Drink water in between drinks
5) Drink a lots of water (1.5 L to 2 L) before you go to bed
6) Like thamar said, drink something with lemon in it.

he7lius 09-17-2004 08:03 AM

For me the only thing that works is drink a lot of water and sleep. Lots of both and u should be fine. :D

possessed_beaver 09-17-2004 09:33 AM

have a kebab when u are out clubbing!!

doesent rely work that well, but makes ya vomit look pretty!

i basicley try and drink as much fucking water as i possibley can truth been told i still get hang overs. on GOLDEN KEY!!!

never ever ever smoke while drinking, it makes the hang over soo much worse!
im talking about tabaco, i don't smoke pot, so im not sure how that affects ya hang over!

muffinman2002 09-17-2004 10:03 AM

Lots of great ideas. I'll have to try and remember them for next time.

Someone should post a link to this thread in Gis's birthday wishes thread - he's probably had a heavy night or two, coming of age (18 years) in the UK.

Not a hangover cure but this will make your future hangovers seem better:

Take a shit load of nasty speed even better if it's been cut with something poisonous, dance all night, forget to drink water, perhaps have a 4am paranoia trip just to mix things up a little and really give the night a whirl and see how your comedown feels for the next (possibly more than 24 hours) day(s) or so.

Don't do drugs kids. It's B-A-D, bad. No doubt I will get shot down by everybody now but I'm being serious about the "don't do drugs, kids" bit.

callen 09-17-2004 03:17 PM

drink lots of water in the morning, and make sure to eata late night snack after going out( i always do, not to help the hangover but cause i love to get fast food after the bar) :D

gucom 09-17-2004 03:27 PM

for every glass of alcohol drink a glass of water

ARMAN 09-17-2004 03:54 PM

Are you the Muffinman from the Jokes Thread?(funniest conversation) :mrgreen:
1st - from nondrinker - dont drink :)
2nd - high dose of vitamin B-complex 3-5 hours before and a little after before you go to sleep. It is not toxic from body in higher doses. This should avoid headache

Stikz 09-17-2004 04:21 PM

If you drink enought then you should be able to puke everything out. I always feel great after puking. Also Mcdick's is a big help. And you also might want to try eating 10-15 cherries. I'm not really sure how much the last one helps, but i saw it on discovery.

would these be fruit cherries or metaphorical ones?

/excuse my dirty mind mu hahahaha

J-Rod 09-17-2004 07:16 PM

hey everyone, i'm new to the site, but it seems great. I love cars, but right now i'm living that dream through my parents who own two WRX's and an S2000, but one of these days i'm gettin a 575M. As far as the hangover thing, take it like a man

ferrari550 09-18-2004 11:22 AM

Hangover remedies, i usually eat something very greasy such as mcdonalds or something and take some painkillers. But i just found this out today, i was very hungover this morning so i ate a shitload of ice cream and now i am fine. Sounds very weird, but hey, it worked :D :D

coombsie66 09-18-2004 01:21 PM

A nice fat fried full english breakfast! Nothing better the morning after, but b4 you go to bed/collapse just drink pints and pints of water till you cant drinnk anymore! It makes such a difference in the morning. Most of the 'hangover' is actually just dehydration, but your always gunna feel slightly shit if you intoxicate your body too much (see my birthday thread!! :shock: )

don't mind the sig too much. i got it out of a local R-rated movie trailer. i find the chik hot that's why i put it there. :P

troskap 09-19-2004 10:20 PM

As to hangovers, I've found that a little water mixed with a bit of honey before bed works decently well. Some doctoral student I know once mentioned that the honey helps the body consume the alcohol. Whatever the reason, it works for me :)
