Most of us have been there before. One too many drinks were had, and the next morning you feel like you got hit by a truck. Obviously, if there\u2019s a hangover cure out there, you\u2019re going to try it. But do all of those alleged hangover cures work?<\/p>\n

Unfortunately, there is no such thing as a hangover cure. You can mitigate symptoms, but time is the only thing that\u2019ll make you feel better.<\/p>\n

For many, hangover symptoms<\/a> include nausea, sweating, headaches, and fatigue, but they can also have other effects like anxiety and mood swings<\/a>. Typically, these symptoms are caused by dehydration, disrupted sleep, stomach irritation, and inflammation\u2014all side effects of imbibing too much alcohol. While no, you can\u2019t eliminate your hangover, you can treat those symptoms<\/a>\u00a0for a bit of relief.<\/p>\n

Once you\u2019re hungover, make sure to hydrate. Sip on water throughout the day as you rest, and if you happen to have diarrhea or vomiting alongside your hangover, make sure to drink sports drinks or other electrolyte-replenishing beverages<\/a>.<\/p>\n

As for food (if you feel like eating that is), don\u2019t go for the greasy stuff. Instead, eat as if you\u2019re truly sick, sticking with the oft-cited BRAT diet\u2014bananas, rice, applesauce, and toast\u2014as well as other bland foods like eggs and greek yogurt that can add some protein to your meal.<\/p>\n

Finally, sleep. There\u2019s a reason the old adage \u201csleep it off\u201d exists. Get rest and ride your hangover wave. Try to mitigate symptoms, yes, but ultimately, you\u2019ve got to face up to the consequences.<\/p>\n

If you were thinking some hair of the dog<\/a> might be your ticket to a hangover-free day, maybe just go back to bed instead\u2014and skip that last vodka tonic next time.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
