Thanksgiving is the perfect time to eat, drink, and be merry. Between the great food, great company, football games, and the alcoholic drinks, thanksgiving can be a lot of fun. Unfortunately, sometimes this means the morning after Thanksgiving can be a little rough.
So how do you cure that Thanksgiving hangover?
Well, despite what you may have heard, there is no miracle cure for a hangover. Greasy food, coffee, and a cold shower will not do a thing to cure that post-Thanksgiving hangover. There are, however, ways in which you can Prevent a Hangover!
Tips for Preventing Hangovers
- Stay Hydrated: One of the best things you can do is to stay hydrated. Drink plenty of water this Thanksgiving in between those beers or glasses of wine.
- Don’t Drink on an Empty Stomach: This one shouldn’t be a problem on Thanksgiving, but if you want to avoid a hangover, make sure you eat fat-containing foods and foods with high carbohydrate content before drinking. These foods slow the absorption of alcohol in the stomach.
- Avoid Sugars: Unlike the above foods, sugars actually help increase the absorption of alcohol in the stomach.
- Take your Time: Thanksgiving is an all-day event. Take your time and don’t drink too much too fast.
