What Is The Best Cure For A Hangover?


Start off the night with a high-quality meal
It is vital to drink a good amount of water before, during and after your night of partying.

One of the  biggest secrets in eliminating that upset stomach and acid reflux in the morning is very simple. Take a Zantac BEFORE you start drinking. This very simple step will eliminate that acidic/upset stomach in the morning by neutralizing the toxins in your stomach as they occur. Before you go to sleep, eat something and drink more water.
Drink plenty of fluids to prevent dehydration it also helps in flushing toxins from the body. A Hangover Is Caused By Dehydration.  As a prevention method, drinking a glass of water for every alcoholic beverage slows down drinking, providing more time for the body to deal with the alcohol (the body can only process about three-quarters of an ounce of alcohol in an hour).
The morning after drinking

A nice sized breakfast could help start your day. Just be sure your stomach can handle what your putting into it. We don't want to be throwing up what you just put in. Hair of the dog is just a myth and will just post pone your agony.  Remember to continue to consume water/Gatorade continually to get your body re-hydrated! You are now on your way to a speedy recovery from that nasty hangover.
Bananas  and Apples  and honey are good sources of food that help in curing hangovers. Bananas would help calm the stomach while honey builds up the depleted sugar levels. Bananas are also rich in the important electrolytes, magnesium and potassium, which are severely depleted during heavy drinking, kiwi fruit or sports drinks work just as well.
Eggs
breaks down the hangover-causing toxin in the liver and help mop up the left-over toxins.

Goals

Did you stick to your diet or workout this weekend?  People that write down their goals have a higher rate of achievement than those that don't.  Write down your goals, it  will help keep you accountable and remember to reward yourself for your achievements.  A reward could be new music for workouts or new workout clothes.  Rewards don't need to be food.
