Added: 03/02/2006

Does this sound like you? You were at a club the night before, and once you started drinking you couldn't stop! Now its eight hours later and you're feeling kind of shaky! In fact, it feels like someone is trying to drive an iron spike into the back of your skull, and what used to be mere colors and sounds have evolved into an interesting new species of pain! As long as you're still alive, try some hangover cures that are guaranteed to cure a hangover and get you out of bed and off to work without being late!

Hangovers can completely incapacitate you, giving you an upset stomach, a huge headache, a gross-tasting mouth, and a guilty conscience. A nasty hangover is the result of not listening to your inner-self crying out to you, "Hey, it's time to call it quits". However, there are hangover cures and ways of easing the pain.

First thing that can help is to go back to bed. The health-care pros all insist that if, after a night of partying and greenish cocktails, you wake up all fuzzy-tongued and nauseous and the bottle of liquor on the night stand still looks good to you, you've got a problem. More booze the day after will just make things worse. Most of us blindly stretch out a shaky hand for the coffee cure-all based on the hypothesis that it usually wakes you up in the morning.

But in fact, those who know what they are talking about largely suggest you stay away from caffeinated beverages. If there's no way you can stay in bed with hangover, there are several things you can put into your body to ease the pain and cure a hangover. They might not work in a 100% of cases, but they work for some.

They say burnt toast will cure your hangover. One of the hangover cures the soakers in the Middle Ages used was a plate of bitter almonds and dried eel. If nothing works still, you might want to try a milkshake that is so loaded with the anti-toxic munitions your body needs, that after it makes short work of your hangover, it might clear out your nasal passages and shrink your hemorrhoids.

For this cure you'll need 2 aspirins, 200mg cysteine (find it at specialty food stores), 600mg vitamin C, 1 tablet vitamin B-complex. Then mix 1 banana, 1 small can V-8, 6 large strawberries, 2 tablespoons honey, 1 cup orange juice, 1 to 2 cups milk, 1 teaspoon of salt, and a dash of nutmeg. Mix all together and drink it up. These ingredients will re-hydrate your body, replace essential vitamins and minerals, and help rid your body of some of the toxic byproducts of metabolized alcohol.

For one of the hangover cures for a headache that drugs don't seem to touch, try an icepack or a bag of frozen peas wrapped in a tea towel, 20 minutes on your head, 10 minutes off.

There have been lots of hangover cures over the centuries, from the Assyrian crushed swallows' beaks with myrrh to Rabbit Droppings Tea. Some people have suggested everything from club soda to the classic Bull's Eye to pickle brine straight from the pickle jar. But if you're looking for something more substantial that can prevent vomiting, invest in the necessary pills.

God's gift to hangovers is Vitamin B1. It calms your shaky nervous system and helps your weary body break down still-lurking alcohol. For your bloodshot eyes grab some Vitamin B2, some Vitamin B6 for your cramping calves and some Vitamin B12 to get your blood pumping.

Korean Ginseng was used around 100AD as a remedy for quieting the spirit, curbing the emotion, stopping agitation, removing noxious influence, brightening the eyes, enlightening the mind and increasing wisdom. Of course ginseng was also touted to give males a huge erection and a voracious sex drive. So be careful that you don't exchange a hangover for weird sex with your dog or cat. Try it. Who knows, maybe it's just what will make your hangover go away.
