Simple Remedies to Cure a Hangover

Headache. Nausea. Hugging the toilet seat. These can all be signs of a good time gone bad, and the indication that you have a hangover. At the end of this article you will find a few hangover remedies to hopefully either avoid this from happening or help you through it if it does.

Alcohol is a tricky thing. It sneaks up on you. It can make you do things you wouldn't normally do. It can make you have to keep going to the bathroom, may cause you to get dehydrated. And, it can leave you feeling sick to your stomach and smelling a little foul. When you drink too much alcohol you might talk too much. Show too much. Do too much. But in spite of all the crazy things alcohol can make us do I would guess it ranks in the top 10, maybe even the top 5 beverages we drink in America.

One drink of choice may be Black Cherry Cruzan Rum. Tastes like kool-aid and smells absolutely wonderful. It's a nice drink too. It will let you drink a half a pint and make you feel like you are doing okay. In fact, it will cheer you on and tell you "Come on you know you want to finish me!"

A word of advice: Never listen to the drink!

Always listen to that other voice inside you that says, "You have drank half a pint, STOP!"
The problem is that by the time you get to this point you think the drink is smarter some how. And the other voice is just stupid and doesn't want you to have any fun. You are feeling pretty good, and you don't want that feeling to go away so you listen to the drink. But the drink lies.

The almighty buzz that drinkers seek after happens in waves. Once you hit that wave of "Yep, I'm good." You don't really need to drink anymore. You can ride that wave for a while. But because the drink is staring at you, telling you stuff, your drunken logic says, "Well, if a little can make me feel like this, a lot could make me feel great!" Not true. So, not true!

You are now on the way to the edge, and once you reach there, there is no where to go but over! Hungover!

Being sick because you are sick is one thing. But being sick because you drank too much is crazy.
