Strong black coffee is the most effective hangover cure
1 of 5
Caffeine does little to entirely cure a hangover. At best, drinking coffee will help ease the accompanying side effects such as lethargy and grogginess but does not really treat the problem per se.
Drinking water before you sleep will keep you from being too hungover when you wake up
2 of 5
Alcohol has dehydrating properties as it makes the body excrete excessive amounts of fluid. So the best way to prevent, as well as cure, a hangover is by drinking lots of water and juices to stay hydrated.
How long will you be hungover for each drink you have
3 of 5
Your body generally requires 3 hours to recover from the damage caused by each alcoholic drink that is consumed. So the next time you party, watch your drinks and know how long you will be hungover in the morning.
If you drink too much, you will wake up drunk and not hungover
4 of 5
This is just a myth and not scientifically possible. The more you drink, the more hungover you will be in the morning. Eating a heavy meal and staying hydrated will effectively help you in dealing with a strong hangover.
A cocktail in the morning will help ease a hangover
5 of 5
Contrary to what many hardened drinkers will claim, a morning mimosa will not help in curing a hangover. It will only make the symptoms worse as the day progresses and make you more dehydrated.
