Hello!
Now you may be sat with the remains of fake blood and face paint on your body at home feeling sorry for yourself after trying every Halloween cocktail and shot at the bar last night but some of us still had to crawl into work!!
Miss Jones is here to help! I have drawn up a little list of all the best hangover cures, use them wisely and your boss will never know that you were that crazy witch at the bar last night...
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 - 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 and
salt seem to be the perfect balance of the carb/salt fix. Last, the flavor
seems to do wonders for that ghastly "did I try to mop the floor with my
tongue?" taste in your mouth.
Sauerkraut - 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.
Hope this helps!!
Love
Miss Jones
