Let’s face it, we likely had a few too many champagne cocktails last night. Though I always like to promote responsible drinking, sometimes, those drinks just hit us and we wake up feeling like a brick hit us. So, before you grab that remote and watch re-runs of Keeping up with the Kardashians, you’ll want some of these tried and true hangover cures.
HYDRATE!
1) tall glass of water with a heaping teaspoon of pink Himalayan sea salt
2) Coconut Water — Coconut water is a great way to hydrate your body naturally.
Club soda, gatorade would work well too. just hydrate.
REPLENISH LOST ELECTROLYTES
3) Bloody Mary -ideally a non-alcoholic one – . good because of the salt in the drink with helps restore electrolytes – Bonus! rim the glass with sea salt to help restore the lost electrolytes.
Jan 1 is also National Bloody Mary day
4) Pickles/Pickle Juice – the salt and vinegar in pickles causes your body to store water and restore the electrolytes lost from drinking
EAT!
5) STARCHY FOODS – Considered to be good because they’re easy to digest and can raise your blood sugar levels.
6) Ginger – settles the stomach
SWEAT IT OUT
While running or working out is the last thing you want to do, it could help flush out all the toxins. A steam room works too!
SLEEP IT OFF
Worse case scenario, grab a blanket, the remote, and water and sleep if off. (if you have the luxury of doing that)
