Cure a Hangover

A lot of people want to know what is the best way to cure a hangover. I’ve heard that peanut butter is also good for your stomach after a night of drinking because it has oil that coats your stomach and helps it from churning.

I read an article where someone claimed to have some steps that help you get over your hangover. The author states to drink a sport drink, which is what I would tell you to do, and then when you get into the shower switch from hot to cold water back and forth throughout the shower. I hope this helps you get rid of something that I wish that beer wouldn’t do to us, a hangover.

How to Cure a Hangover

A lot of people want to know what is the best way to cure a hangover. Well, I am definitely not the one to ask, but I have tried many things to get rid of a hangover. There are many ways I have tried to get rid of a hangover, but there is only a few ways to get stop the painful headache and other symptoms that come with being hung over. Now I know some people are different from others and others recover a lot faster from the night before. But if you are anything like me and have a terrible hangover after a good night then read the following.

After my 21st birthday, I was living with my parents at the time and my mom tried to make me a remedy that was suppose to cure my hangover. This remedy consists of a banana that was dipped in honey. Let’s just say it was delicious, but did not work to cure my hangover at all. I’ve heard that peanut butter is also good for your stomach after a night of drinking because it has oil that coats your stomach and helps it from churning.

I have heard that taking a cold shower is suppose to work, but all that does is make you cold and mad. Because you just took a cold shower and you still have a hangover. I’ve tried this both hung over and sober and this is not the way to go. People think that this is suppose to help you get sober for some reason. Can we clear this up and say that the people that suggest this need to stop? I have a feeling someone was thinking how could I make people mad after a night of drinking? “Lets tell them to take a cold shower. I’ll just tell them that it will get their mind off their headache.” Funny…..

I read an article where someone claimed to have some steps that help you get over your hangover. The author states to drink a sport drink, which is what I would tell you to do, and then when you get into the shower switch from hot to cold water back and forth throughout the shower. I would not tell you to do that because again the cold water does not help with anything, but just to make you cold. The author had way too many steps to tell you about so I just told you up to the part that I believed was false. But yet again this could work for you, but for the majority it doesn’t work.

I mean you could take an aspirin before you go to bed after a night of drinking, but yet again if you want to have liver damage then go ahead. I have been told by one of my friend’s dad that he used to do that all the time back in college and now he has some liver damage that he is struggling with. This technique works, but I am NOT suggesting that you try/do this because it will lead to serious complications. Now if you need to get rid of the headache and function at work then go ahead and take some in the morning before you go to work.

Another way I have heard to cure a hangover is to drink a whole bunch of water or Gatorade or some type of sports drink before you go to bed. I have tried this numerous of times and get the same result. I end having to go the bathroom 19 times and still wake up with a hangover. I mean it is a workable hangover, but any hangover is an unwanted hangover.

I could keep going on how you could not get over a hangover, but I will cut you some slack and go ahead and tell you how I have figure out how to get rid of a hangover. There are actually a few ways that I have found out that work the best.

The first one is to go a sauna. Let the sauna do that work for you. All you need to do is get hot and start sweating. Once you start to sweat then the hangover has no chance to survive. Sit in the sauna for as long as you want so you can be sure that you are hangover free, but be careful NOT to become dehydrated. When you have to go the bathroom and see that it looks like orange juice instead of apple juice then you better go get a long drink of water. That is the one downside from sitting in the sauna, you will become dehydrated after awhile. But if you do it right then you will be hangover free and ready for the day/night.

The next way is to workout. Simple, but yet can be hard to do. You feel like crap and you smell like beer because of the night before, but if you can get through the workout without throwing up then you will be free from your hangover. Though it is never that easy. I have to have something in my stomach before working out or I cannot get through it. So I would suggest that you eat something, which is a good thing too, and drink a bunch of water or a sports drink. I wouldn’t recommend a huge meal, but maybe an energy bar, power bar, or simply a granola bar. After you have had something to drink and eat, then let it settle in your stomach before going to workout. Once the food has settled then go workout and get rid of the hangover.

If you are lazy and don’t feel like doing anything, meaning getting off your butt or out of bed, then make sure you force yourself to drink a lot of water and sports drinks. If you can’t eat anything then keep drinking water until your stomach starts to growl and then go get something to eat. This usually happens to me when I want to watch College Football all day Saturday after a good Friday night.

I hope this helps you get rid of something that I wish that beer wouldn’t do to us, a hangover.
