Best hangover cure

[Ripperjon]

Come on, i've been trying to figure this one out for years.

The only thing that works for me is a hair of the dog, but seeing as i might be working today, that's sort of out of the question.

I've done the bacon sandwich and two cups of tea but my mouth is still like roadkill and my brain is threatening to turn of if it gets any sorerer.:bye:

Any ideas?

[Finn]

Don't drink so much.

Grease - check.
Caffeine - check
Fluids - check
Chilli - no
Sugar - no
Painkillers - no

Half the list complete, how you get the rest into your system is up to you. Personally, I favour paracetamol and sweet chilli sauce on the bacon...

[Ripperjon]

Don't go to work: I like the sound of that one but i don't think it counts as a cure.

Don't drink so much: too late for that.

Painkillers: genius. I forgot about those.

Sugar: will try another cup of tea with sugar this time

Chili: Bizarre. But i'll give it a go

[Edbear]

Don't drink so much.

The reason for hangovers/headaches is basically dehydration. Alcohol is a diuretic and you lose a lot of fluid, more than you're taking in. You may notice you go to the toilet much more frequently when drinking heavily?

If you want to drink and avoid a hangover, drink lots of water during the evening as well, to replace the fluid you're losing.

(That'll be $250 consultant's fees, thanks...:doctor:)

[Ripperjon]

Haha. Good point! Hope it didn't put too much of a dampener on the tour.


BTW, i must've got you guys mixed up. I thought the guy on the busa was Cajun but yours is the gsxr eh?


Also, that chili didn't work! It's sort of a diversionary tactic i think.

As in: "oo my head" "oo my head" "holy shit my mouth is on fire" "oo my head"...

nah no damper on the tour, was still great fun.

Yeah i was on the yellow gsxr
orange busa was father in law macmotortrimmer (member here never posts tho)

[Ripperjon]

Oh GOD!

Whatever you do, don't put soluble aspirin in your tea!

YUK!

[Zuki Bandit]

I reckon this would clear the system out!:sick:

There's a pretty heavy impact from metabolites of the alcamahol stuff as well (worse with dark drinks, so that's not a myth) - drinking the water helps flush these out of your bloodstream quickly, and scientific study shows that bacon grease plays a key role in counteracting their effect. True.

[Sparky Bills]

Before heading to bed, drink soo much water that you feel like your going to burst. Then you should feel a little more hydrated the next day.
Works for me anyway.

Other than that, force yaself to eat food, and drink even more water the next day.
Unfortunatly its all part of the drinking experience.:Punk:

Cool! I'll split the fee with you...:rolleyes:

High in vitamin C, has been shown to have painkilling properties and also gives your system a bit of a rev and will speed up the recovery...didn't say it would be instant did I?

[ManDownUnder]

Drink a decent slug of water throughout the night, and intersperse your booze with the odd water (1 in 2 or 1 in 3 is good if you can remember).
Painkillers just before you go to bed too so you get the chance to sleep as long as you can so long as the sweats don't wake you in the night.
Next morning, more water with a pinch of salt AND a pinch of suger in it (helps metabolise and get rid of dehydration), or apple juice, or Gatoraide/similar sports drinks
More painkillers next morning (Neurofen work for me, strong and no reaction to alcohol, unlike panadole)
As much continuous sleep overnight as you can get (gets you through the painful parts without being conscious if you didn't manage to avoid them)

[Ripperjon]

Aha, somebody has handily (foolishly) left a bag of Bombay mix next to the lap top.

Let's give that a go then.

[Swoop]

I'm guessing the weather is too crappy for tandooms then!:shit:

[Ripperjon]

Yep, just a thin layer of cloud keeping the carnage at bay.


(Bombay mix isn't working. Time for cup of tea number 4)

Stolen from Dean Martin, I believe....

Lemonade iceblocks ..... work every time.

And then sit back and wait for that glorious moment when the hangover clears (usually some time mid-afternoon). Honestly, I think there should be thunderclaps, lightning, orchestral music, and that weird "God-light" that comes through the clouds ...... fabulous.

If it's any consolation I was horribly hungover yesterday, compounded it by locking the keys in the work car at Lake Brunner, had to get a guy in to crow-bar the door open. Then I got to the airport at Christchurch and the booking agent had cancelled my bookings on the flights home.... spent two hours at Christchurch airport and four at Wellington before I got home..... waking up the next day never felt so good as it did this morning! You have that to look forward to tomorrow.....

[Gubb]

Blue Powerade and a couple of Nurofen before you go to bed.

[98tls]

Blowjob followed by tomato soup and toast,i shit you not.

[rachprice]

Yeah man nurofen is key, don't take panadol after drinking though! Alcohol increases the metabolism of panadol, which gets turned into a toxic metabolite, this then goes on to fuck with you liver. No so good.
Pulpy orange juice always works for me. And keeping my stomach full, i just snack all day. Dam i had a bad one yesterday, bloody hyde st keg race

[barty5]

change what you drink i use to drink beer all the time but would wake up with mean hangover after only 1/2 a dozen swapped to sprits can drink half a bottle wake next day and feel great appart from lack of sleep in most cases but no sore head or churning gut. Put it down to the hops and the preseratives they add to the beer.
