Every country around the world has a national brew or tipple to tempt us. Copenhagen has its beers, South Africa has its wine, and even Cyprus has the Brandy Sour cocktail cruelly waiting to greet us. But we need not fear, for here are a few post-party remedies to try on holiday. Yes, even all-nighters in Ibiza can be tackled!
On holiday, you sweat a lot in the heat, meaning your body loses a lot of water throughout the day. In order to avoid this, it's important to make sure to keep sipping on water throughout the day. It'll also mean that you'll eat less as you'll be more hydrated -- making you feel fuller, so if anything, do it for the diet.
It's also important to have a full dinner and drink a glass of water with every drink, which will again keep you hydrated and alert -- important factors while you're in a foreign country. Also have a glass of water when you come in and perhaps a light snack like some toast, which will help you sleep as well, as getting a good night's rest is another crucial factor to reducing your hangover the next morning.
The next day, stay hydrated again with water and also try some fruit juice. The glucose in it will do you good and get your sugar levels back up from the night before. Also a little caffeine will work wonders too, so have a coffee or a tea, which will do just the trick.
Then have a shower. Not only will you feel more refreshed and more awake, but if you have a cool shower, it'll do your body good while giving you an extra boost of energy. Remember to have a big breakfast with lots of carbs to soak up any excess alcohol that your dinner failed to do so the night before. And finally, it's important to go prepared. Pack some ibuprofen (although only take with a meal - not on a drunk, empty stomach) or alternatively a tried-and-tested natural remedy like milk thistle tablets.
