What exactly is a hangover? It is the bodys reaction to the excess of alcohol. Notice the wordexcess which by definition meanstoo much. When one has a hangover, the body is reacting to the toxins associated with drug abuse. Yes, alcohol is a drug and this includes beer. So what is the cure? Moderation! Very few people, if any, suffered a hangover by having a glass of wine with dinner or a mixed drink at a social. Those who suffer are those who get drunk.
When getting drunk, the bodys functions deteriorate. Reflexes are slowed. Speech can be slurred. Mental capacity can diminish. A hangover is the bodys natural reaction to the alterations caused by drinking. To counteract this two aspirins and a glass of cold milk may offer some relief. Taking another drink of alcohol is not a solution. It could be an addiction!
