That's Fit

Everyone has a theory on what it takes to cure a hangover. Some will suggest drinking Pedialyte or Gatorade to restore electrolytes and reduce dehydration. Others claim that the 'hair of the dog' method works best. And some believe that taking vitamins can offset the effects of alcohol.

Truth be told, there really is no such thing as a hangover cure. The Pedialyte/Gatorade approach is a good idea, as dehydration is part of what makes you feel so crummy. But, it's still not going to "cure" your hangover. The classic "Hair of the Dog" approach is not a good idea, for it requires you to keep drinking more alcohol. More or less, all you're doing with this method is prolonging the inevitable. As for popping vitamins, this won't really do much, either.

In pill form, vitamins are not absorbed very well by the body. And, since alcohol will only further hinder this absorption, your efforts at replenishment will likely fall far short.

The only "cure" for a hangover is to simply wait it out and be sure to stay hydrated. Oh yeah, or don't get drunk in the first place. That one works every time.
