You wont believe this. I thought I discovered a cure for hangovers A FEW YEARS AGO.and I don't know of many people who have used this recipe and didn't swear by its benefits.

Liquid Chlorophyll, water- soluable vitamins, potassium, calcium carbonate.
Activated charcoal.

These, taken with 1,000 militers of H20 will prevent 90% of hangovers.

MORE SPECIFIC:

Water Soluable Vitamins: Small dose b complex.(large doses make you puke.)
Vitamin C- Detoxifies the aldahyde biproducts. Used buffered form or use regular VIT. c with extra tums.
Calcium carbonate
Tums- take three or four.
Protects stomach. Adds calcium ions to blood stream. Protects kidneys from phosphates.
Potassium- Depleated by diuretics.
black strap molasses, potassium supplements, three bananas, gatorade/powerade.

Chlorophyll:
Detoxifies
by binding to and/or absorbtion.
Well documented properties!

Activated charcoal.
Absorbs alcohol that's remaining in your stomach.Blocks it from your blood stream and liver. Excreted through feces.

Water:
Very important. Alcohol is diuretic. You become dehydrated and your electrolytes are off. So, replenish water and lytes is good strategy.

Nobody, goes out and buys all this different stuff just to treat hangovers. But when they do they are glad they did. If after all this, you wake up to urinate in the middle of the morning, if you still have a headach,...take benadryl 25 mg.

WARNING:

Do not take aspirin, tylenol for hangovers. Tylenol can cause liver damage. Aspirin can cause G.I. bleeding.

Much to my pleasant surprise I stumbled on a hang over remedy. I started taking a daily multivitamin sometime around June 20th just because I thought I would be good for me. I attended a good friend's wedding on June 28th, and had plenty of wine. There's no question that I should have NOT been well the next morning. I woke up the next day and had ZERO hang over. No head ache, no nausea, no laying in bed all day, nothing. I was floored. I couldn't imagine why. After discovering this website, I realized that it is the MultiVitamin (which I have continued to take) that is preventing me from having hang overs. I haven't had a hang over since early June and I do 'my share' of drinking. The Vitamins that I'm replacing are doing their job. I usually take the vitamin at lunch time, so they have enough time to circulate and build up the supply before an evening of happy hour festivities. Thank you Costco for your Kirkland Brand, Once a day, Multivitamin, and thank you Earth Clinic for the many remedies I've been reading about. (Banana Peels for warts really works)
