Last nights 21st birthday party was awesome! … well, from what you remember. But now your head is rattling with the slightest movements.

Hangovers are not much fun, but before you mutter the words, “I am never drinking again”, here are a few hangover cures that will have you back on your feet in no time!

1) Sleep. If you have the luxury of time up your sleeve, go back to bed and sleep it off! Otherwise, read on…

2) Water. Hangovers make you dehydrated, so drinking plenty of water will help speed up your recovery. You could also have drinks that contain plenty of electrolytes, such as Gatorade or Powerade.

3) Vitamin B. Drinking depletes your body of vitamin B, so it makes sense to put it back it right? You can grab a packet of Berocca which is loaded with vitamin B & C to aid you in your recovery.

4) Junk Food. Nothing settles your tummy more than greasy fast food. Some bacon and eggs will have you feeling better …. and if not, at least you will have something in your stomach to throw up!

5) Painkillers / Antacids. Grab a Panadol or two to help with the pain and temperature. Antacids may help you also if you have sore stomach, by protecting the stomach lining. Always seek the advise of health care professionals first. Some over the counter medicines can make the matter worse!

6) Keep drinking! While studies show this course of action to work, the higher you climb, the further you will fall. This will only temporarily solve your problem …. and possibly turn you into an alcoholic!

Remember the pain you feel, so you can take steps to avoid this happening to you in the future. You may want to check out our previous post – Party responsibly on your 21st birthday.
