subject: Info With Reference To Hangovers [print this page] Any great night out can be instantly ruined when you've got a morning hangover to cope with. In this article we'll give you some tips to follow so that you can drink the night away and still come out hangover-free.
Listen to what your body says, know how much is enough and how much is too much. After that warm comfortable buzz arrives, stop drinking. Hangovers are experienced by 75% of people. That means 25% of people have learned when to say enough and stop drinking. Taking it very slow can prevent the point of total alcohol oblivion.
The primary cause of a hangover is dehydration, so be sure to drink plenty of water in between drinking the alcohol. You can also mix alcoholic drinks with water, and sip on a glass of water between your liquor. Another trick is to add fruit to your drinks, which can help to keep your hydrated.
Before you go out for an evening of drinking - or at least during your evening - eat a good meal, which will help the body to absorb the excess alcohol. Getting sufficient food into the body can help you sidestep a hangover, and it will give you the added strength you need to fight off the morning-after queasiness and headaches. Also, when you eat while you drink, you're more likely to feel like you're full.
Stay away from concentrated alcohol whenever possible. If you want less of a hangover, stick with less concentrated drinks. So say no to a whiskey on the rocks and have it with water, instead. Rather than a rum neat, ask the bartender for a rum and coke.
Also, darker alcohol is more likely to cause a hangover as compared to light or clear alcohol. For instance, a drink with vodka or gin is a better choice than whiskey or rum when trying to avoid a hangover. Carbonated mixers will increase the alcohol absorption, instead opt for non-carbonated.
Also try not to mix drinks, drinking too many different kinds of alcohol will make you become nauseous, and you will definitely have the worst kind of hangover in the morning.
Drinking while in a good mood helps to maintain that same mood and prevents hangovers as well. Individuals who are in a sour mood, upset or sad, usually drink in excess and suffer for it the next day.
Just keep in mind that even while you may be having a fantastic time out drinking, you'll forget about all the great times you had due to the hangover the day after. So take care and take control of what you drink!
