Your best hangover Cure?

Because there are topics for bourbon and tequila I figured I'ld start this to see what people like to do for hangovers.  I'm also at work hungover.

When I do get a hangover, for me, the best remedy is greasy food in the morning.  For me, nothing better than sausage mcgriddle and hashbrowns from McD. Enjoy that and pop 2 advils and I'll be fine within 30 minutes.

When I do go out and plan on having multiple pops, I also pre-plan cause I don't like having hangovers. Every other drink I have will be a blue dolphin. Doing that usually prevents any hangover for me.

 
I have never been a big hangover guy but usually if I just get up and get moving I am fine.  Laying around seems to be the worst thing for me when I am hungover.

I typically don't get hungover unless I mix up what I'm drinking.  If is stick to beer, fine.  Stick to vodka, fine.  Stick to bourbon, fine.  Beer and then vodka, hungover (yes I know beer before liquor never sicker line, but it happens the other way around as well).  Vodka and bourbon, hungover.  I usually just pound water or gatorade and pop a couple advils but I haven't done either of those this morning.  I did make it to the gym and felt like I was going to die the entire time.

Hangovers are mostly your body dealing with the lack of water and nutrients in your system. Alcohol is a diuretic, so it's going to run fluids out of you faster than you're putting in. It's probably not a "cure," but it'll help if you drink a lot of water before you sleep and when you wake up, and eat something. I'm not sure McGriddles are very healthy, but if you like them, it's at least something in your system. 

 
Electrolit Electrolyte or Pedialyte are great hydration and recovery drinks.  Most gas stations carry Elecrotit.  Just sip and sip until it's gone.  Don't chug it like gatorade.  And keep drinking water too.

My food of choice is always Pho Noodle soup.  

Then it's Caldo de Res, Pizole, Menudo...  hot soup and limes

I stopped doing the greasy burger with egg on 2 decades ago and switched to Pho or authentic mexican soup.  It's the best cure in my opinion.  

I won't eat in morning.  Just tylenol for pain reliever and electrolites, water until lunch for soup.  And then I'm super good.

This. Water.

Drink all the water you can possibly handle before going to sleep. In the morning, more water and Advil.

You may still be a little slow the next day but the headache is caused by dehydration.  Pedialyte may work too but plain old H2O does wonders.

Don't know why but I've heard to avoid acetaminophen and go for an ibuprofen based pain reliever when hungover.
