HOME REMEDIES FOR HANGOVERS

Before a party:

Drink 1 glass of milk to slow down the alcohol absorption.

Take 1 table spoon of honey.

After a party:

Take 6 tea spoons of honey 3 times every 20 min. Repeat it in the morning. 
( it will neutralize the alcohol effect. )

Sometimes you just need to cleanse your stomach from the alcohol.  If it did not happen naturally, drink hot coffee mixed with salt. It will cause vomiting.

If you want to sober up, drink 1 glass of cold water mixed with 5 drops of liquid ammonia in one gulp.

If you want your friend to sober up, rub both of his/her ears with palms of your hands very fast and strong for 1 min. You will be surprised how effective this remedy is.


Before you go to bed:

Drink at least 2 glasses of water.

In the morning:
First, try to sleep at least 8-9 hours. While you are still in bed, massage your face, neck and ears. Take a cool shower or a shower where you alternate hot and cool water. You can take a warm bath with sea salt ( add 300 g of sea salt to a full bath. The water should not be hot. Stir it well and take a bath for 30 min. ) It would be great, if you had the opportunity to swim in a swimming pool. 

Some people drink alcohol and feel that it helps with a hangover. Wrong. Avoid alcohol because you will get a worse hangover after felling better for a short time. Another reason to avoid alcohol is that your heavy hangover can turn into a drinking bout without realizing it.

You have to drink plenty of fluid. Here are some suggestions:

-Take a glass of warm water and squeeze some lemon juice there. Drink it  before breakfast.
-Drink warm tea with lemon and sugar or honey.
-Always keep dill seeds in your house. Take 1 tea spoon of dill seeds and add 1 glass of boiling water. Boil it for a few minutes, let it cool and drink it warm.
-Prepare this herbal extract: mix 4 table spoons of wild rose, 1 table spoon of St.-John's-wort, 2 table spoons of Hulwort and 3 table spoons of honey. Add boiling water and let it cool. Drink the extract through the day.
-Drink warm milk with honey ( 1 tea spoon of honey for 1 glass of milk ). Milk helps to detoxify your body.
-Drink yogurt.  
 -Drink slowly 1 glass of tomato juice mixed with 1/2 tea spoon of salt. 
-Prepare fresh ground coffee ( take tea, if you do not drink coffee ), add 1 slice of lemon, some sugar and 2 tea spoons of cognac. Drink it slowly while it is hot. If you smoke, do not smoke for at least 20 minutes after drinking because you will get the opposite effect. You will feel better even before you finish your cup.
-Drink 1-1.5 L of mineral water through the day.
-Mix 1 L of cool water with honey. The drink should be very sweet. Stir it very well. Drink a half in one gulp. Wait for 15 minutes. Drink the rest. If necessary, repeat everything in 1 hour.
-Take 1 table spoon of peppermint, add 1/2 L of boiling water, let it sit for 2 hours and drink 1/3 glass of the extract 3-4 times a day.



Health cocktails for morning hangovers

Take 1 glass of orange juice, 1 lemon with the skin still on it and 4 oz of honey. Squeeze the lemon juice and grind the lemon skin, mix all the ingredients and whip them for 5 min. You can also add 1 raw egg white to it.

Mix 2 eggs, 2 tea spoons of sugar, 2 table spoons of yogurt, 1 oz of cognac and 1 table spoon of natural sour cream. This remedy is very effective.

A very effective remedy is brine. Any brine will help. Try sauerkraut, tomato or pickle brine.  You can drink it plain or drink slowly a glass of brine mixed with a piece of mashed garlic and a pinch of pepper.


Have a light breakfast. Choose scrambled eggs, a toast with fruit jam, buckwheat cereal, vegetables or  yogurt.
Prepare mashed tomatoes: mash a couple tomatoes, cut celery into fine pieces and add a pinch of ground pepper. If the tomatoes are not very juicy, add some tomato juice.
Here is a great breakfast recipe for a morning hangover: take a big piece of French baguette bread,  add a lot of garlic ( cut it into fine pieces ), add boiling water ( it should cover the bread ) and let it sit for 5-7 minutes.

Take a walk and get some fresh air.

How To Prevent and Cure A Hangover!

21 Proven Ways to Conquer Your Headache Without Using Pain-KillersDo you remember how many times you let loose at a stag party, wedding, anniversary, social gathering or holiday event? Most people drink responsibly and modestly because they have other responsibilities, need to drive a vehicle or hate that dreaded hangover. However most of us can think of select occurrences when we went a little overboard.

The December holiday season is the primary time of year for overindulging. Some get up close and personal with their toilet seat. Others prefer to feed their bathroom floor with yesterday’s dinner. There are those that simply ring in the new year with a ringing headache! Ughh, never again!

It is dreadful to deal with the aching stomach, throbbing headache and sore aching muscles. Perhaps the kids will get their own breakfast and the dog will take himself for a walk? Perhaps everyone else will whisper the entire day while you recover? Or maybe, just maybe, there is a concoction that will miraculously take the pain away.

Why not start by preventing a hangover? Here are some basic tips:

1. Before you start drinking make sure you eat fruits, food and or supplements that have plenty of vitamin B and C. Food in the stomach prevents rapid absorption of alcohol in the bloodstream.

2. Drink lots of water and juice before you head out for a night of festivities. Alcohol dehydrates your system and water will help prepare your body for any overindulging.

3. Do not mix different types of drinks. Mixing different drinks with various levels of alcohol content and sugar will undoubtedly upset your system.

4. Do not take any form of medication and alcohol before consulting a physician. Most medication and alcohol do not mix and could cause serious health risks.

5. It is a known biological fact that body size, age and gender have a lot to do with how your system handles alcohol. People with larger frames and more weight can absorb more alcohol. Younger people tend to tolerate alcohol more than older people. Men tend to tolerate more alcohol than women even if they are the same height and weight.

6. Elect yourself as the designated driver. Wake up without a hangover!

It is the big night and you are ready to party armed with sensible prevention advice:

Okay, so you decide to go out and have some fun! It has been a long time since your last hangover and frankly you are not going to get suckered into that experience again. You are joined by some friends and you start by ordering a cold beer. Ahhh, you needed that! It was a refreshing beverage. Shortly after you indulge in a glass of red wine. Mmm… that was soothing and relaxing. You and your friends are partying, dancing and having a grand old time. Hmmm, a shot of rye would hit the spot right now. Next thing you know, people are buying each other liqueur shots. Wow, you need to be a part of that action. It is nearing the end of the night and you forgot to take any preventive action. You are responsible enough to remember one most important rule “Don’t drink and drive“. You leave the car in the parking lot and take a cab home.

How do I get over my cravings for alcohol or drugs?

What do you do after you get home and you forgot to practice hangover prevention?

1. Do not drink more alcohol. It is a common belief that drinking more will soothe the system. Putting more alcohol in your body is not a good idea.

2. Drink lots of water. Water will dilute the alcohol in your bloodstream.

3. Some over the counter drugs such as acetaminophen, aspirin and ibuprofen have demonstrated some success. There is always a harmful risk of mixing drugs and alcohol. Consult your physician before taking one of these remedies.

4. Throwing up helps your system get rid of alcohol content that has not been absorbed into your bloodstream.

5. Drink coffee in the morning to help increase alertness and relieve tired, aching muscles. Caffeine tends to energize the body and reduce headaches. Coffee is a diuretic and should be coupled with lots of water. Do not drink coffee before you go to bed. You will not sleep well and wake up in worse shape.

There is only one full proof way of getting rid of a hangover. Moderation is the best advice. Have a wonderful holiday season! Stay safe and enjoy!

Common Alcohol Myths Revealed

Do You think you know everything about Alcohol? Well, here are the facts behind some common misconceptions about alcohol.

1. Champagne bubbles make you more drunk.
TRUE. Champagne bubbles open your pyloric valve through your intestines and move the alcohol into your bloodstream quicker. The carbon dioxide in the bubbles helps alcohol flow through the body at an accelerated pace. This in turn helps you get intoxicated much quicker.

2. You lost inhibition after a few drinks.
TRUE. Alcohol relaxes your blood vessels. Alcohol also can dilate your blood vessels.

3. Wine is the only good drink for the heart.
FALSE. While wine is known to relax the heart and help lower cholesterol levels, it has also been proven that beer helps reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease. Three glasses of beer a day reduce the risk of heart disease by 25 percent.

4. Beer gives "Beer Bellies".
FALSE. There is no fat in beer. Beer is even 93 percent water. There is no evidence that beer consumption promotes a belly more than any other source of calories. Beer bellies are caused by high levels of body fat, not high alcohol consumption.

5. Beer makes you dehydrated.
TRUE. Beer causes you to become bloated, thus not giving you enough room to stay hydrated. Beer also causes you to urinate more, thus becoming more dehydrated.

6. Alcohol kills brain cells.
FALSE. Alcohol only damages the neurons. The body can repair neurons but not back to their natural state. Studies have shown that alcohol consumption can even help reduce the risk of Alzheimer's disease.

7. Alcohol ages.
TRUE. Alcohol dehydrates your skin, which causes wrinkles. While the alcohol is in your body it'll stimulate water retention, however line formation can come from the absence of that water.

8. Mixing drinks makes you drunk faster.
FALSE. The blood alcohol content of drinks makes you drunk, not how many. So you may mix whatever drinks you like, the alcohol content will get you drunk not how much fluid there is.

9. The more you drink, the greater your tolerance.
TRUE. The more your liver is exposed to alcohol, the harder it works against it. Your liver can be damaged by alcohol, thus reducing it's ability to breakdown alcohol before it enters your bloodstream.

10. Alcohol only helps your heart.
FALSE. Alcohol also strengthens your bones and prevents against osteoporosis, gallstones, ulcers, kidney stones, cancer, and diabetes. Alcohol also can helps reduce stress in most cases.
