If you were out celebrating the arrival of the new year last night, and indulged in one too many alcoholic libations, you may be wandering about this morning with a head that feels twice its normal size. If that is your state today, beware the old folk cure for hangovers that advises a little hair of the dog that bit you. "Similia similibus curantur" goes the Latin admonition, showing that the idea of like having curative powers over like has been around since Hector was a pup, but it still is not a good idea in this instance. Although a little sip this morning might seem at first to ameliorate your problem, it will actually just exacerbate it. You'll just be adding to the overload of acetaldehyde your poor liver already has to work its way through. There actually is no cure for a hangover, but some suggest that ingesting a few strawberries, when you can drag yourself to the kitchen, will help. Because of your body's dehydration and the work it needs to do to process the acetaldehyde resultant from your drinking, your levels of vitamin A, vitamin B, and vitamin C drop drastically, so a little fruit juice or some fresh fruit accompanied by a B-complex vitamin pill is about the best you can do to help yourself feel better. While you wait for your body to start feeling human again, you might just want to think ahead to the next party, and plan a little self-control. Read "BYOB" as "BRING YOUR OWN B-VITAMINS", and be ready.http://www.aka-alias.net/2007/01/test-post-33noreply@blogger.com (aka.alias)0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7021820.post-108544368676526539Tue, 25 May 2004 00:07:00 +00002004-05-24T20:08:06.766-04:00Test 2http://www.aka-alias.net/2004/05/test-2noreply@blogger.com (aka.alias)0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7021820.post-108544364615260770Tue, 25 May 2004 00:07:00 +00002004-05-24T20:09:06.036-04:00Test post.http://www.aka-alias.net/2004/05/testnoreply@blogger.com (aka.alias)1
