7 Bogus Hangover Cures That NEVER Work
No matter how many times we say, “I’ll never do that again!” when we imbibe in alcohol a little too much, for many there is, sadly, a next time. And a next.
And each time, people seem to want to try new and better ways to ease the pain of the inevitable hangover — techniques that are rooted in legend, old wives’ tales and the words of the barroom physician. By the way, the peak of so-called morning after pain occurs at 29 years old, says a recent study from Denmark.
Well, to date, there is no “cure” for the common hangover, though there are some “treatments,” so to speak. Among them, according to About.com:
– Sleep
– Liquids (because you’re dehydrated) like vegetable and fruit drinks coupled with water
– Vitamin C (try some organic orange juice)
– Eat, even if you don’t feel like it; mineral- and protein-rich foods are best
Now, on to those “cures” that don’t work, as compiled by Men’s Health magazine:
‘Hair of the dog that bit you’: A morning-after shot of whiskey or Bloody Mary? Well, that may numb your pain, but it’s temporary, according to Gary Murray, acting director of the National Institute of Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism’s (NIAAA) Division of Metabolism and Health Effects. Taking another drink (or a few more drinks) will only delay the wearing-off effect of your bender. Rehydrating is crucial; alcohol will further dehydrate.
Have a greasy breakfast: Think loading up on sausage, eggs and hash browns will help absorb whatever alcohol is left?
Nope, because there is no alcohol left by the time you wake up. And in truth, greasy, non-organic, processed food — besides being incredibly bad for your body — is likely to accomplish only one thing: giving you heartburn. But again, as stated above, certain foods are better than others.
