Drinks That Help


Water


Water is the No.1 on your hangover curing list. Alcohol pushes liquids out of the body. When nothing's left in the water tank, the body will draw water from any available source, including the brain, which leads to headache. So, hydrate, hydrate, hydrate!

Sports Drinks


Sports Drinks loads of fluid-balancing electrolytes, which is what your body needs after too many drinks.

Coconut Water


Coconut Water is insanely hydrating, and one box contains rich potassium, which is the key nutrient for feeling better fast.

Ginger and Peppermint Tea


Ginger can help to ease nausea by acting as a anti-inflammatory in the digestive system and blocking serotonin receptors in the stomach. Peppermint is a digestive aid that helps to relieve tension, bloating and other unpleasantries in the stomach. Ginger and peppermint both will sped up the detoxification process.

Fruit Juice


The fiber from fruit aids your body in breaking down and absorbing the remains of last night's alcohol. In addition, fructose helps to boost the body's energy and increases the rate at which the body gets rid of alcohol's toxins.

Foods That Help



Eggs


Eggs provide protein to help stabilize blood sugar, while the cystine in protein may help to clean up leftover toxins in the process. Plus, eggs are high in B vitamins, which one study in the Annals of Internal Medicine found can reduce hangover symptoms.

Bananas


Bananas provide necessarily electrolytes lost during heaving drinking last night and improve muscle function. They are easy on the stomach and contain a ton of potassium - one of those electrolytes that may have gone down the drain in the morning.

Honey

Honey is loaded with antioxidants and concentrated fructose, which will help flush any remaining alcohol out of your body quickly. For the ultimate cure, spread some on a slice of wholemeal toast.

Toasts 

When you drink, your liver is busy metabolizing your alcohol and can't always regulate your blood sugar. It leads your body moody and drained of energy. Your liver will be grateful for a few slices of toast in the morning after.

Oatmeal


Oatmeal contains potassium, which you may need after getting sick in the morning. To double down on the healing effects, top that bowl of oatmeal with some banana slices.
