Wisdom I learned after a 3 days hangover:
Avoid drinks with congeners. It will make your life a living hell for days. It won't matter if you had a greasy burger or pizza the night of. YOU. WILL. SUFFER.
Drink water in-between each alcoholic drink. Drink water/electrolytes before bed. You can make an electrolyte mix and drink that when you come home.
Don't mix alcohols. Wine with bourbon whiskey and a side of tequila? Throw in a little cognac for fun? Do it only if you hate yourself and want to SUFFER.
Sleep. Just sleep most of the shitty minutes, hours, days away.
Hydrate. HYDRATE. Before, during, after. Water and electrolytes are your friends.
"After you drink alcohol, methanol is converted into formaldehyde, a toxic compound that could be the cause of some hangover symptoms" Yeah I didn't plan on introducing formaldehyde into my body until body preservation after death but poisoning myself because I'm able to buy alcohol now was a rookie move.
Drinking alcohol can prevent the conversion of methanol to formaldehyde, which could reduce some hangover symptoms." I did not try this method. I said fuck it and had some Powerade.
"Some supplements, including red ginseng, prickly pear, ginger, borage oil and eleuthero, have been studied for their ability to decrease hangover symptoms." I didn't have any of these so fml.
"Through the process of ethanol fermentation, sugars are converted into carbon dioxide and ethanol, also known as alcohol." Just say I poisoned myself AND GO.
Again, say no to Congeners. "Congeners are toxic chemical by-products that are also formed in small amounts during this process, with different alcoholic beverages contain varying amounts." Fuck everything else and DRINK VODKA responsibly.
