Vitamin B12 seems to help considerably. B vitamins contribute to good brain/nervous system function. A multivitamin would probably do the trick.

Steak and eggs. A T-Bone steak and three eggs over easy is my go to cure for a hangover. High protein meals are the way to go.
This is the best answer here.

Although I find it much more efficacious if you drink the water AS you are drinking. One glass (8-12 oz) of water for every drink, just alternate. The next morning is WAY too late, as taking a lot of extra water hours later, after you have become dehydrated may only make you sick to your stomach, and if you vomit, you lose even more fluids.

That really does work. The trick is remembering to hydrate.

Not going to happen!

How many people that drink do you know that do this?

You'd need a bladder the size of a barrel, or you would be running potty every 10 minutes.

Only the smart ones who don't want hangovers.

To begin with there are not many smart drinkers.

Back in the old days when I was known to put a few away...I never, ever, ever, saw ANYONE drink a glass of water for every drink they had.

When is the last time you were out drinking and saw someone doing this?

I'm pretty sure that getting tipsy is a human trait, not a dumb-ass trait. Even Einstein and Jesus drank (I had to stop them from bitch-slapping each other).

I've seen it. This isn't the old days, after all.

I've never met that standard, but I do try to hydrate while drinking and it definitely makes a huge difference. Try it and see for yourself. Report your findings.

Where did you see it?

See if you can get some of this on a vidio, as I find it very difficult to believe.

Some things just never change...I really can't see someone out drinking in today's world having a glass of water then a drink....NO, that just isn't going happen!!! 😛

You're wrong. Try to see outside of your limited view.

In my experience, it's a female encouraging everyone to drink water. And you're right, even the people trying rarely do 8oz of water per shot or beer. But I'm telling you that the more water you take while drinking alcohol, the easier the recovery. Go research if you still don't believe.

And if the women in your life want you to do something, you should give it serious consideration. Just saying.

Depends on what it happens to be! 😉

I'm sure as hell not jumping of a bridge, or robbing a bank to please any women!
