8. Power Nutrition to Stop Hangovers June 02, 2008 While there are dozens of hangover cures, the most effective are those that are taken before the drinking occurs. Hangover pain is mostly from dehydration, allergic impurities in the alcohol and poisoning known as acetaldehyde damage. Speaking from experience, drinking plenty of water before and during drinking, can lessen the effects of the alcohol. Drinking alcohol with fewer impurities in it, can also lessen hangovers. For example, good quality vodka will tend to give the drinker less of a hangover than dark rum. My best drinking experience, as a young soldier, was fruit juice w... (read more) Author: Doug Setter
