HANGOVER HOME REMEDIES
MILK THISTLE - Milk Thistle tincture is a great way to detox your liver whether you drink or not. It's been proven over and over again. Pick up a bottle at your local health food store. It works wonders for those mornings after! This is the best of the best hangover remedies!
REBALANCE YOUR PH - Mix 1 tablespoon apple cider vingegar, 1 tablespoon honey and a pinch of salt in an 8 oz glass of water and drink! This will not only balance your PH but also replace the minerals, salt and sugar your body is crying for!
BAKING SODA (sodium bicarbonate) - Mix 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda in a glass of water to reduce the acidity in your body. (not good for a salt restricted diet!)
APPLE - Eat an apple on an empty stomach!
BANANA - Bananas are said to be one of the great home remedies for hangovers!
CABBAGE - Eat some raw cabbage to cure hangover headaches!
WATER - Drink lots and lots! One of the easiest and best hangover remedies. Rehydrate!
HONEY - If you can't do the vinegar try taking 2-3 tablespoons of raw honey every hour starting when you get out of bed. (no honey for diabetics!)
HI-POTENCY VITAMINS - Take hi-potency vitamin B and C to help detox. A zinc supplement will also help your hangover.
AVOID TYLENOL, IBUPROFEN, ETC - These may help your headache some but they are going to wreck havoc on your already overworked liver! Use milk thistle and take aspirin if you really need it.
LIME OR LEMON JUICE - Add 2 teaspoons fresh lime or lemon juice (a teaspoon of honey would be a good addition) to a glass of water and sip slowly.
AMERICAN SCULLCAP TINCTURE OR TEA - Scullcap is an herb that not only calms the mind but minimizes cravings for alcohol, tobacco, etc. It's also a great herb for anxiety, insomnia, PMS and irritability. Available at health food stores or online. (There's also a chinese scullcap which has different beneficial properties but you want American scullcap for this remedy!)
ACTIVATED CHARCOAL - Take 2 capsules of charcoal. This will absorb the impurities in alcohol that cause hangovers. Do not take charcoal within 2 hours of any medications because it will absorb those also!
CAYENNE PEPPER - is a great hangover home remedy! It's a natural stimulant and also a natural pain reliever. Learn more about cayenne pepper healing here!
