Hangover
  • According to Dr. Hepburn
  • The hangovers are caused by increased levels of
    alcohol breakdown products called acetaldehyde,
    which is an unpleasant sounding word unlike say,
    peppermint or playoffs.
  • Alcohol, a diuretic, leads to dehydration and
    causes electrolyte depletion. Dehydration means
    that the body now cant easily rid itself of the
    irritating acetaldehyde and other byproducts of
    alcohol.

Advices for Hangover
  • Try to drink water or beverages like Gatorade or
    bouillon soup to help replace lost electrolytes
    or lost soup
  • Don't drink large amounts of alcohol quickly. No
    more than one drink an hour, since that is all
    the alcohol your liver can handle.
  • Exercise. It raises your metabolic rate, which
    helps you clear toxins associated with
    metabolizing alcohol.
  • Drink clear drinks. Complex organic molecules
    called congeners create more toxic byproducts and
    are found in greater concentrations in darker
    drinks (e.g. whisky, brandy, rum, even red wine)
    compared with clear drinks (e.g. vodka, gin,
    white wine, Fresca)

Advices for Hangover
  • Eat a meal before you start drinking
  • If you consume more than three alcoholic
    beverages a day, be very careful with
    acetaminophen, which itself can mess up a liver
  • Drink more alcohol it doesn't help and it's only
    enhancing the existing toxicity and making
    dehydration worse.
  • Drink caffeinated beverages will further
    aggravate dehydration.
