Does coffee sober a person? How about taking a pain reliever before bed if you’ve been drinking? Is a drink of bitter what the headache and upset stomach? What happen with the water? There are many theories that try to help us get rid of a hangover, but some don’t work and some can be dangerous.
one) coffee to sober up: Good theory, but wrong. The caffeine in coffee will make you more awake, but not sober. On top of that, it will add anxiety and nervousness to the mix.
two) A pain reliever before bed: It won’t help and can do you considerable harm, especially if you choose something that contains acetaminophen. The combination of alcohol and that pain reliever can cause permanent damage to your liver. Aspirin and alcohol can also cause stomach bleeding.
3) A shot of bitters: This product is actually a type of orange liqueur…basically more alcohol. This may help temporarily, but you’re really just putting off the inevitable. The hangover will come back later.
4) Water: Drinking water and sports drinks can help. Alcohol causes dehydration, which can lead to the headache and dry mouth associated with this problem. If you start the night before, you may be a little early the next morning. Have a glass of water or other non-alcoholic beverage between beers, etc. could also be beneficial.
5) Women have it worse than men: To some extent, yes. Women are likely to get drunk faster and with less alcohol than men, due to the amount of water in the body. Men have more than women, so less is needed.
6) Wine will not cause this problem.: One aspect of that headache feeling is the other components of your beverage of choice. Red wine contains substances that can cause an allergic reaction, especially headaches. Colored drinks of any kind also contain components that cause problems. If you’re going to drink and want the best chance of avoiding pain, try beer or any clear drink, like vodka.
7) Diet drinks do not count: Calories can be cut back, but the chances of an unhappy morning not only linger, they can get worse. On the other hand, if you use a fruit juice or other sugar base, the intensity may decrease.
8) The order in which you consume it can prevent the problem: Only if it reduces the total amount consumed. That’s the key, the less you drink, the less likely a hangover will be.
There are some herbal preparations and tips that can help you deal with this problem. As mentioned above, water and sports drinks are key. They will rehydrate and restore lost electrolytes. Avoid willow bark, as it can cause the same problems as aspirin.
A cool, wet cloth placed on your forehead can help reduce your headache. Licorice root and marshmallow root can help coat the stomach and reduce nausea. If you’re not vomiting, peppermint tea might help. It doesn’t feel good to go back up, so don’t use it if you’re throwing up.
