How about some hangover remedies?

[blonndee]

Bleh. I'm getting old. I can't drink like I used to, and even a few beers leaves me nearly incapacitated the next day. I've taken aspirin and had coffee, but I still feel kind of swirly and trembly.

Any magic cures you guys know of?

1. My husband

used to be able to drink a few beers, but when he hit is late 40's that changed. He would feel like crap the next day, even if he only drank one beer. He just stopped drinking beer. He thinks he might have developed an allergy to something in the beer. Why else would just one beer make him feel so bad. He tries to drink one now and then, but with the same bad results.
I don't know about a cure for a hangover, but maybe you should just quit. Is that an option?:shrug:

[blonndee]

5. Maybe I should quit on the beer, but I love it so!!!

I'm not close to my late 40s, but starting around age 27 or 28, this has been happening. Maybe not from one beer, but I used to be able to drink a LOT. Now any more than 2 or 3 and I end up regretting it.

I also seem to get drunk much more easily, which I don't like.

10. Then your only other

options are to cut back and slow down on the ones you drink. Find out how many you can drink without feeling like crap. Make that your limit and then switch to something non-alcoholic for the rest of the evening. As my son alway says: sometimes you just have to say f*ck it--and move on.

2. Honestly

The only one I know of is to sip a beer.

[blonndee]

3. Ughhh I've heard that, but I just can't bring myself to do it! nt

4. Prickly pear juice cures hangovers, but I don't know where to get

it.

Also, drink a lot of water.

[GOPisEvil]

24. Call me. I have three prickly pear catcti in my yard.

Nopalitos down here. :)

[Texasgal]

6. A big bowl

of menudo... it's the pig tripe. That's what I have heard anyway.

[trof]

7. Hair of the Dog. Bloody Beer.

1/2 & 1/2 cold beer and tomato/V8 juice with all the Bloody Mary condiments.
Worcestershire, Tabasco, etc.
Quite good.

[blonndee]

12. Wow, that sounds like a good drink. nt

[democracyindanger]

8. Shower clears the pores

Nap helps the process

Big greasy breakfast breaks up the toxins

[Liberal Dose]

9. Vitamin B-12 and water. I used to keep a bottle of B-12 behind the bar way

back when I 'tended.

11. Why on earth do you drink to the point you get a hangover? You might want

to assess your situation for an addiction problem with beer and alchohol.

The hangover is telling you that you're poisoning your body; it's the reaction of your liver and your bloodstream suffering from the toxins of the booze.

A realistic self assessment is in order.

Might want to check out AA.

Big hugs, reality checks SUCK.

[blonndee]

14. Excuse me, you have no idea how much I drank.

I get a hangover very easily. Please don't be so judgmental. Maybe a "realistic self assessment is in order" for that quality in yourself.

13. Sobriety?

:shrug:

15. Lots of water before you go to bed

at least one full (8-12oz or more) glass for each beer you had. It is the dehydration that gets you.

[skygazer]

16. Second the water

Lots of water before bed and continue the following day. Coffee's not such a great idea - it's just one more toxin (caffeine) in your system.

Take a shower, drink some water and go outside for a walk. The fresh air will go a long way toward reviving you.

[Bobby_Miller]

17. Water.

And food and aspirin. While you are drinking.

I think most of a hangover is dehydration, so lots of water before, during and after.

[Bobby_Miller]

18. Yoohoo

The chocolate drink also helps me, for some reason.

[blue neen]

26. That sounds insteresting.

I'd never heard of that one before. At my age (50) it takes very little alcohol now to give me hangover type symptoms. Three beers can do it.

I'm going to try the Yoohoo cure. :)

[Bobby_Miller]

27. I know it sounds silly.

I love Yoohoo anyway.

But I noticed when I drink it after imbibing too much it seemed to help.

It is fortified with vitamins and minerals, so maybe that has something to do with it.

Or maybe I'm just nuts.:rofl:

[no name no slogan]

19. The green food group

Green jello, mountain dew, and gatorade. Then follow that up with shots of vodka. Works every time.

[bridgit]

20. mine is simple & preemptive...

3000 units vit C, two advil w/8ozs spring water before crashing, repeat advil & spring water when up to go pee somewhere in middle of night...or day :thumbsup:

[MrSlayer]

21. Water before you sleep is essential.

While drinking you should also have a glass of water for every 4th beer. Water is everything, have some when you wake up and then eat something in an hour or two. Works for me every time.

[Scout1071]

22. Gatorade and comfort food. Chicken Fried Steak with mashed potatoes

is highly recommended.

[sakabatou]

23. Try a "Spike Special"

1 teaspoon Worcestershire Sauce
1 tablespoon Tomato Juice
1 whole Egg Yolk
2 dashes Vinegar
1 dash Pepper
Pour in order in a wine glass taking good care of not breaking the yolk.

25. DON'T DRINK!!!!!!!

But if you must, drink plenty of water while you are drinking....

for every glass of beer, drink a glass of water....

The hangover is due to dehydration......
