Here Are 7 Natural Hangover Cures That Actually Work

So you went a little hard in the paint last night and now you have a dreaded hangover. Hangovers suck and they happen to the best of us, but these natural hangover cures will have you on your feet in no time.
 
 

Here are 7 Natural Hangover Cures That You Need to Try:

Instead of suffering, or cursing the sight or smell of alcohol, these at-home natural hangover cures will can get you on the path to feeling better and facing the day.

 

1. Hydrate

Water is so important to you every day, but especially the day after drinking. After a night of drinking, try to drink 16-20 ounces of water before bed, if you can stomach it.

Alcohol dehydrates you, so the day after, be sure to hydrate, hydrate, hydrate! Drink plenty of water throughout the day – bonus points for coconut water – and make sure you’re getting plenty of electrolytes.

 

2. Eat Bananas

Your body craves potassium the day after your imbibe a little too much. Eat a banana whole or slip it into an antioxidant- and electrolyte-rich smoothie the next day, and you will be on your way to recovery.

Just wear earplugs when you turn on the blender. Buzz!
 

3. Detox Bath

Your body is full of all kinds of nastiness the day after you drink, especially if you drank those specialty cocktails chock-full of sugar. Relaxing in a bath is a great way to unwind, calm your mind and relax your muscles.

Add a few tablespoon of Epsom salts to your hot tub of water and let the salts penetrate deep into your muscles. You can also add some calming lavender essential oils to make it a more soothing experience for your senses.

4. Ginger

Ginger is an excellent natural remedy for nausea and vomiting. Nibble on some raw, or you can brew yourself a cup of ginger tea to ease your stomach and center your mind.

 

5. Kombucha

This strong-tasting beverage is made of fermented black tea and sugar. It is full of healthy probiotics, is detoxifying, and supports your liver – great for the day after testing the processing power of that vital organ.

Have a cup of Kombucha before bed the night that you drink, if you can remember. Then, have a cup the day after and let it work its magic!

 

6. Eat Clean

Your body is recovering from the night before, so you want to choose foods that are clean and not filled with additional processed chemicals that your body has to process.

Skip the morning-after bacon and grease-filled breakfast, and instead go for something that’s easy-to-digest and can absorb any excess libations still lingering in your system. Give your stomach a break and avoid sugar, and get plenty of healthy fats and proteins into your meals throughout the day.

7. Sleep

You are tired. You have a headache, and your stomach – let’s not even talk about that! If you can get away with it, hit the snooze button and get the extra sleep that your body is craving. You can bury yourself beneath the covers and stay in bed all day, and there is no shame in that!

No matter what you try to do today, you will not be giving it your A-game, so take it easy, and save the stress and work for tomorrow.
