Is this the hangover cure we’ve been waiting for?.....The hangover “cures” on the market don’t work. A new hydrogel does.

So it keeps you from getting drunk rather than reducing the hangover after getting drunk. Why not just drink non-alcoholic beverages and save a bunch of money then?

Because many alcoholic beverages taste better than many non-alcoholic options.

Yeah, I get that. I'm primarily a beer drinker. If I'm going to be driving, I'll typically switch to non-alcoholic beers after I've had a couple of real ones. The non-alcoholic beer offerings are getting quite good. Heinekin and Guinness are two of my favorites.

That said, the title of the article is greatly misleading. It inhibits drunkenness rather than curing hangovers.

I have not been waiting for it. A hen old fellow I knew 50 years ago swore by raw Arsh taters. Keep one in the car with you and take a big bite of it when you see the cop behind you. It must work. He only got a few DUIs and jail once.

Very true. It stops intoxication, not a hangover. Which to me is even better.

Also, non-alcoholic beers aren’t any cheaper really.

Hydrogel? The Deep State loves hydrogel. Don’t be like the deep state.

Take a tall glass, pour a beer in it, add V8 juice and a squeeze of lemon. Drink it. 30 minutes later hangover gone.

Take vitamin B-complex and drink 12 oz. Of water before bed. It has worked well for me for many years. Your mileage may vary.

Never drink so much that you get a hangover. That’s the real trick. Imbibe, enjoy and never go over your limit.
You’ll be happier and more healthy.

If I took B-complex before bed I wouldn’t get a wink of sleep... That stuff is an upper.

I do that! Works well. However, I don’t think it benefits the liver that has been abused. Definitely helps the head feel better.

It’s said that water contamination was so bad during the Middle Ages that people drank more beer and ales instead...staying buzzed all the time. I think this set off the Renaissance much like drugs set off so much great music in the 1960s and 70s.
