That being said, what can we do to prevent hangovers?

1. Before you start drinking: Eat Fatty Foods and Carbs

Now, we know you’re gonna say this ain’t for you, especially if you’re on a diet or watching your weight, BUT… they do help! Science says so! Fatty foods slow down the absorption of alcohol, and they also serve a a protector for your tummy, cause they lessen stomach irritation.

Wondering what those carbs are for? Well, they help prevent nausea and they keep your blood sugar up so you can party without vomiting!

2. Drink Lots Of Water!

It may sound simple, but remember, water is your best friend in preventing and treating a hangover. Drink lots of it, and after you drank lots of water, drink some more! Alcohol is a diuretic, that means it takes out your reserves of fluids and makes you pee more. All of the water you lose needs to be replaced and fast, if you don’t your other organs will “steal” water from your brain, causing it to literally shrink… hence the headaches 🙁

And while we’re on the fluids issue:

3. Chose And Drink Lighter-Colored Beverages

Bourbon, whiskey, red wine and their dark-colored alcoholic friends contain a higher concentration of congeners, which are extra toxi chemicals which your liver can not handle.

4. Beer Before Liquor… Never Been Sicker!

Combining beer with other drinks increases the rate of absorption of alcohol, hence, you’re gonna have a worse hangover! While we’re here, don’t forget to drink some more water! You want to pee more than to have a killer headache the day after.

5. Take an Aspirin Before Bed

Aspirin inhibits the release of prostaglandines, which are an important contributor to hangovers. BE AWARE! Do not under any circumstance take Tylenol! It is very harsh on your liver, and while combined with alcohol, it might severely damage your liver.

6. Special HAngover Breakfast

– Eggs contain Cysteine, an aminoacid that helps break down alcohol in the liver.
– Bananas are a source of potassium
– Fruit juice contains vitamins and fructose
They all give you energy and increase he rate of toxins excretion.
