A full greasy English breakfast with gallons of hot coffee. OK. you still feel like c.rap but it's lush. Actually I don't think there is a hangover cure. Except of course not drinking the night before. ( I never listen to my own advice though.)

Mornin'
Try drinking water the night before.
Alcohol causes dehydration. The sugar-based drinks you use as mixers don't help either.
A ratio of one glass of water for each glass of beer is ok. Intersperse your drinking with a glass of water or when you get home drink a liter or so of water, then wake up later for a pee and drink another litre.
Smokers can add a vitamin C tab. Result no hangover.
I thought everyone knew this, every year someone asks again

Marinated herring of the kind favoured by Scandic peoples ( uncooked) really does the job for some reason. I'm not sure why,but it could be the oils and vitamins that naturally occur. Only problem is - who the ferk wants to eat marinated herring when they have a vomitous hangover?

A fistful of aspirin and a couple glasses of water right before bed usually do it. The trick is being sober enough to remember.

Really? That's interesting. I try not to use Tylenol or similar painkillers as using them with alcohol over extended periods can cause a specific type of internal bleeding that I can't remember right now. Regular aspirin usually do me right, though.

I use to find drinking straight vodie and avoiding even one beer, I could get reall p1ssed up and not get hungover the next morning. Try it kids, it works!

Avoid dark-coloured drinks, such as red wine, dark rum, mud, etc., as they contain somethingorother-oids, which cause oxidisation in cells. Unsurprisingly, my memory is a bit shaky on the scientific facts... Confused

DMB: The full English is our greatest gift to the world, if they but knew it. If I can keep it down, it works wonders for me. Otherwise, bananas; carbs (complex sugars), simple sugars, and vitamins C and B12 (?).
Failing that, a large Bloody Mary, without the string. Shocked

I find that starting drinking as soon as I get up helps a bit. It's difficult to choke the first one down, but it gets easier after that.

(I'm not an alcoholic. Alcoholics go to meetings...)
