Hangover Cures Thread

After a long night of celebrating/partying/binging/drinking by yourself and yelling at..well apparently nothing... there always comes the inevitable hangover. I'm not talking about the mild ones either. Surely there have been a few experiences of where you're waking up in a strange place (a ditch, or some bushes.. whatever i'm not judging.), with your tongue stuck to the roof of your mouth and your head being squished into a diamond. We've all been there. I'd just like to hear your remedies, potions, cures whatever you use to get back to reality.

I'll start first.
Greasy Breakfast Sandwich
What's important here is the eggs. They contain quite a bit of Cysteine, which helps counteract Acetaldehyde ( :no: POISON) in the liver. The greasy part may be counterproductive but I like to think its good for the soul. Omit grease for full effect.

2 or more liters of ROOM temperature water
I can assure you drinking all this at once is going to make you vomit and you'll end up worse than before. Best to drink it all slowly and throughout the day. Water closer to your body temperature is absorbed more easily than cold water, which has to be raised up to your body's temperature anyways, making the hydration more efficient. The same goes for non-caffeinated sports drinks.

GET DRUNK AGAIN
Fuck this science shit. I'll deal with it tomorrow.

Water, you should already drink about 2L of water a day but drinking a pint before you go to sleep and another when you wake up will improve it all. Alcohol dehydrates you so you're going to need to replenish.


Also, a shot of Espresso.

GBS is where it's at.

No matter how bad the hangover, smoke a joint and it completely disappears. The high is even better as well.
If you don't smoke then I'm sorry, because it really does work wonders.

Science says a hangover is basically alcohol withdrawal. So have a shot with your greasy breakfast.

Since I watch too many cartoons...
