Top Remedies for Hangovers

Hangovers appear to be the body's way of warning us about the dangers of excessive drinking. As alcohol is broken down, it turns into a toxic substance that, at high levels, can harm the body. It disrupts the hormones that control our internal clock and affects brain function during sleep. Additionally, alcohol can trigger migraines, leading some to mistake an alcohol-induced migraine for a hangover.

Here are some effective hangover remedies you can try:

Avoid drinks with congeners: 

Congeners are toxic chemical byproducts produced in small quantities during alcohol fermentation. Drinks with lower congener levels, like vodka, gin, and rum, are less likely to cause severe hangovers.

Stay hydrated: 

Alcohol causes dehydration, which negatively impacts the body. To minimize hangovers, drink more water to slow alcohol’s effects and maintain hydration.

Get good sleep: 

Alcohol can disrupt sleep patterns. While sleep doesn't eliminate hangovers, a lack of it can make symptoms worse. Allowing your body to rest and recover through proper sleep can lessen hangover effects.

Eat well:

Eating a hearty breakfast can help alleviate hangovers by stabilizing blood sugar levels. Heavy drinking can cause chemical imbalances in the blood and lead to metabolic acidosis, which a good meal may help balance.

Take supplements:

Certain supplements can mitigate hangover symptoms such as fatigue and headaches. At Innorini-Stabicon, we offer "PartyPal," an enhanced health supplement made from natural ingredients. It can be taken before, during, or after drinking and comes in a convenient powdered form that's easy to carry.

Drink coffee or tea:

Coffee, black tea, and green tea contain antioxidants that may reduce the negative effects of alcohol consumption.

Eat before drinking:

Eating before drinking alcohol slows its absorption into the bloodstream, keeping blood alcohol levels lower and reducing hangover severity.

While there is no instant cure for hangovers, several home remedies can help manage the symptoms, such as taking anti-inflammatory medications, antacids, eating nutritious foods, staying hydrated, and consuming foods rich in antioxidants. However, the best way to prevent a hangover is to either abstain from alcohol or drink in moderation.
