Toasting Queen Victoria = Barf

Toasting Queen Victoria = Barf

Hopefully, after celebrating the glorious birth of Queen Victoria, you’re feeling a little exhausted from the weekend’s festivities. Now, now, I know you enjoyed some regal activity similar to that of a queen. Eating beef swords (also known as hot dogs to the average civilian), playing rocket tag, and enjoying a glass (or two) of this country’s finest pops is a lot to take on for even the fairest of women. Alas, I give you the best hangover remedies.

#1: Sports drinks
When becoming “overly-refreshed” during an evening, sports drinks can be the ultimate cure to rehydrating yourself. Because they are high in electrolytes, they will help replenish what the kidneys have excreted during drinking.

#2: This hangover is bananas
Apparently, eating a banana is the quickest way to cure a hangover. Bananas are rich in imperative electrolytes, magnesium and potassium, which are depleted during heavy drinking.

#3: Ginger ale
Ginger ale will simply sooth your stomach. Try taking this with some soda crackers and you will be ready to take on the day!

#4: McDonald’s
You know it. Greasy foods will definitely fight off that unwanted nausea. Greasy foods line your intestines, which slows down the rate at which your body absorbs alcohol.

#5: Zzz…
Want to avoid a hangover all-together? Sleep it off. If you have to go to work, call in sick. Yes, I’m condoning lying. You will indeed sound like crap on the phone so they will believe you. Just make sure they weren’t alongside you at the bar. Yikes.
