Best Hangover Cure Tips

Did you take one too many tequila shots with your college buddies last night and are seriously regretting it this morning? All that booze has swiftly traveled up to your head through the night and now you can't think straight because of a constant pounding in your head, you are bending over to reach a bag to throw up in and you feel like you might never be able to get out of bed? Welcome to the world of hangovers.

The best cure to one is not to drink too much in the first place but if you have over-indulged yourself, don't worry. There are ways to alleviate the symptoms of a hangover.

Firstly, lets look at how you can save yourself the agony. To prevent the effects of a hangover which are mostly due to dehydration, drink as much water as possible before going to sleep. This will also assist the body in getting purged of the alcohol in your system. Taking water every once in a while during your drinking marathon can also stop hangover from occurring the next day.

Another way is to munch on something before or during drinking.

If none of these tips work or if you didn't pay heed to them then here are ways to beat the nausea, dizziness and exhaustion:

• Again, top of the list is water. Drink like a fish to keep all of last night's booze down. Adding a bit of lemon juice will also calm the nausea. Do not drink water that is either too warm or too cold. Go for something at room temperature.
  
• You must have seen people in movies waking up with hangovers and reaching for a pot of strong black coffee. Bad idea! The caffeine in coffee will serve to dehydrate your body even more. Plus, it has diuretic properties so of course it will leave your stomach feeling worse than ever.
  
• Bland water too much for you to face? Substitute it with ginger ale. This will help you calm your stomach. Make sure it is flat and not fizzy.
  
• Fresh fruit juice is another good option. The vitamin C found in it will provide you with quick energy that your body so craves.
  
• Do not ignore your thirst. Even some energy drinks can be helpful to some people.
  
• To ease the dry feeling in your mouth, take a few tablespoons of honey or stir it in with a glass of water.
  
• When you have had enough water try swallowing a few slices of plain toast and keeping it down. Do not apply any topping like marmalade or peanut butter.
  
• For a little freshening up and getting energy into your exhausted body, try eat a little fruit.
  
• In case it's impossible for you to look at any solid food or even juices resort to multivitamins.
  
• Take some aspirin to get rid of the headache. Tylenol and Panadol are common choices. Use them in the morning and not at night when your body is still loaded with the alcohol.
  
• Sleep it off. Use all the remedies given above and hit the pillow again.
  
• Wrap your head in a cool wash cloth or compress. Try to relax.
