New Hangover Remedy

[Ray McKigney]

Not sure if this helps at all, as I've never tried it. Not surprisingly, the study was financed by the Coca-Cola Company.

7-up works better than Sprite.  7-up is the Japanese people's wonder tonic when sick.

I don't know if you were aware of this, but that phenomenon is hardly unique to Japanese people.

7-up and Doritos.

Because bacon is not part of this cure, it simply can't be true.  You really have to question the study and the data it produced.

In my first few years in college our hangover cure was sprite and Kraft Mac and cheese. 7 up is so gross

Amateurs.  My hangover cure is another beer

[Jay]

can it be diet sprite or does it have to be the sugar kind?

Or just drink a lot of water, because you're dehydrated.

Someone posted up a YouTube video that was actually pretty solid....things like electrolytes and sugar for your blood sugar levels and insulin.

Sadly (or not sadly), I don't even get hangovers anymore no matter how much I drink. The worst that happens is I get a fever that need about 1600mg of ibuprofen over the course of about four hours. If I'm lethargic it's because of the hour I ended up going to bed.

It's a gift and a curse. Hangovers are the worst and I'm glad I don't get them, but the tolerance brings about many expensive nights.

[Brandon]

Oh, and the morning after I'll drink BCAAs which is a workout supplement but does wonders for the morning after as well.

the #1 hangover tip: don't drink crap liquor. and especially don't mix crap liquor.

 

i dont get hangovers because i stick to just the good stuff: the tides of st ides baby. represent.

The best cure for a hangover is an IV bag. Ask any firefighter.

[Spirit]

Sierra Mist is way better than either 7-up or Sprite.

The best cure for a hangover is an IV bag. Ask any firefighter.

Depends on what's in the bag, but yeah. You have sodium and water that needs to be replaced since your aldosterone level is low. Your blood sugar may also be jacked, so if there is dextrose in there it can help.

ha.

about 10 years ago my buddy was doing some firefighter medic program/intern and would go into the stations and dudes would be hooked up and wearing oxygen masks.

too many coors lights at the river.

I don't think there is a remedy for the new Hangover. That movie sucked balls.

Actually I found this No Hangover drink at my local 7-Eleven and I was surprised it really worked! I drank a quarter of it before I went out to drink, and then another quarter before I went to bed. So I only drank half of it and it helped tremendously. I was even drinking hard alcohol (shots) and a pretty heavy Goose Island beer.

Going to try it again on Friday night to see if it was just a fluke.

The ingredients sound right.

Acetaldehyde is what gives you hangovers, and NAC, which is in that Resqwater, helps your body process it quicker.

I think Brandon mentioned BCAAs. Alot of workout supplements that contain BCAAs also contain L-glutamine, which helps keep NAC in your liver, binding more of the NAC to the acetaldehyde, making it easier to remove from your system.

Add in the electrolytes, B-vitamins, and sugar, and that sounds like a killer combo.

Resqwater + L-glutamine/BCAA powder = cure.

Gonna try it this weekend FOR SURE.

If the last couple months has taught me anything, its that I'm not bulletproof anymore.

[Brandon]

interesting. I have glutamine but never thought to take that as well.

I've done the hangover drinks before and they worked initially. but they want you to take x amount per volume consumed. you could run through a pack quickly and still be hungover.

but yeah, love the aminos.

[Spencer]

It might not actually be L-glutamine that helps directly, I think it's another L-glut____ thing That contains glutamine and another couple things, which as a whole help you to retain NAC.

But L-glutamine definitely helps your brain chem.
