Daniel Craig’s One Weird Trick to Cure Hangovers
New York Magazine ^ | August 27, 2015 | Dayna Evans

When you're Daniel Craig, life is tough. You're too handsome! And too beloved! And your wife is gorgeous, talented, and smart. In a new interview with DuJour magazine, the Bond boy declares that he is not bothered by who plays 007 next, and that going to bars is harder for him now because people are always sneaking photos of him:

But if I’m being photographed all night long in a bar, that pisses me off. If you ask, I may say yes, but come up to me and say, “Would you like to take a photograph with me?” If you’re **** sneaking photographs of me … it’s human nature, you’re sneaking something! I’m being **** with! But people don’t see it as a problem. Maybe I’m delusional.

The actor also claims "I don't go on the internet." But what does one do instead of go on the internet? While Craig says that he isn't much of a drinker, when he gets into it, he has this one weird trick for the morning after:

There’s this thing called Pedialyte. It’s basically a diuretic; you give it to kids who are dehydrated. If you wake up in the morning and you’ve got one of those on standby and you down the whole lot … you can carry on drinking!

Mark Wahlberg allegedly "swears by it," and while Wahlberg didn't recommend this trick to Craig personally, it's not hard to imagine the Ted star throwing back a few baby bottles of the stuff first thing in the morning. Refreshing.

Good scientific evidence behind this. More of a hangover prevention than a cure.

My best cure is/was, a 20oz Cheerwine, 2 BC powders, and the greasiest nastiest cheeseburger you can choke down.
You’ll be in tip top shape in about an hour afterwards...or you’ll die, but either way you won’t have a hangover any longer. :)

Back in high school, if a buddy and I got blasted at a party, we discovered that if we downed a large quantity of water from the water fountain the next morning, it would regenerate an almost instant buzz. Seriously. I'm sure sitting in his convertible in the parking lot the next morning and chugging a few an hour before the doors opened had a little to do with it, too. *chuckle*

Yup, that was my “solution” as well. I don’t miss it one bit.

Artichoke pills. Drop one before a bender and I guarantee you’ll wake up tired and fuzzy but hangover free.

“There’s this thing called Pedialyte. It’s basically a diuretic; you give it to kids who are dehydrated.”

Pedialyte is NOT a diuretic and anyone giving a diuretic to a dehydrated kid is unfit to be a parent.

Had a friend in the Army many years ago, he would slam down a couple special Alka Seltzers while the water was fizzing, step outside about 8 minutes later and throw it up. He was good to go from that point forward.

...

Craig talks like he’s a moron, so I’m not surprised.

Interesting. Because I discovered the way to prevent hangovers is to keep drinking.

As you’ve said, Pedialyte is not a diuretic, but Craig’s statement that it is shows how little many Hollywood actors know. Why people put them on pedestals (or go to them for advice) is beyond me.

This works...Gatoraide is pretty good too. Pedialyte is a lot more gentle on the stomach.
