I go with a lot of water, a vitamin, and a few aspirin right before bed and it works wonders for me.

"Remedies listed on the internet included aspirin, paracetamol, bananas, cabbage, charcoal tablets, eggs, exercise, green tea, milkshakes, Vegemite on toast, pizzas, and 'hair of the dog' alcoholic drinks."

My favorite hangover cure is a Whopper with Cheese.

I have used a sure fire hangover preventative/cure for years.
Before passing out, take vitamin B and C with about a quart of water. This will prevent dehydration and replace the vitamins lost by the alcohol. In the morning, if there is any hangover effects, eat a good Southern Breakfast and exercise heavily for several hours – a really bad hangover make require 5 or 6 hours of aerobic and weight lifting exercise. By evening, the hangover will be gone.

Avoiding hangovers is easy -- just don't stop drinking.

Sleep, water, and more sleep. I've found that I feel better the next day after a night out if I only have one kind of alcohol. I just have wine or if I'm having cocktails, only ones with rum in them, or with schnapps, etc. Long Island Iced Teas are a big no-no.

Gatorade helps, I promise. There are ingredients like potassium and sugars that help equalize your electrolyte balance. If you've thrown-up a lot these electrolytes can get out-of-whack and then you can't STOP throwing up until the balance is restored....this is the same process with Pedialyte (a doctor recommended cure for infant vomiting and diarrhea - to restore electrolyte balance.)

Gatorade is also great for replacing the fluids that are lost due to alcohol dehydration.

TRY IT.

The only way to avoid a hangover at Christmas is to stay sober.

More of the same stuff you drank the day before - and you'll be like new. But avoid mixed drinks like AIDS and keep things simple and straight, not even on ice.

I have never had a hang over bad enough to keep me sober.
No pain, no gain. ;-P

Eat. You must Eat.
This coming from a alcohol conesuier.
Eat a thick meal two hours before starting to drink and eat again before bed.
When you wake up in the morning, force yourself to eat a suasage biscuit with cheese or something. Force it down with a Mt. Dew or other high carb soda.
Two hours later, you are ready to start drinking again.

On a more serious note... the worst hangover I ever had was probably a case of carbohydrate poisoning rather than an actual hangover. So, for the record, pizza and strawberry coladas do not mix.
