Hangover
Hangover

Hangover is familiar to everyone. Even those who drink rarely, can recall one or two cases in his biography, when the morning was so bad that I wanted to stop time, turn it back and returned to the previous evening, slap her cheeks and stop alcoholic libations.

As such, the hangover does not represent any medical mysteries. Any medical student can broadly explain what happens in the human body the morning after taking excessive doses of alcohol.

Yet, around the hangover emerged and continue to thrive numerous myths. Most of them are not justified, and some have delusional.

Let's try to say goodbye to some of them.

1. you need to freshen the nip

In fact, the only sober alcoholics completed, in which the body does not function as normal people.

A healthy person, the body that morning trying to cope with the consequences of drunk yesterday (ie enzymes in his body trying to bring the remains of acetaldehyde), in the "additive" is not needed. After all, the new portion of alcohol only leads to the formation of an additional portion of acetic aldehyde, which, in turn, need to re-excrete.

2. Hangovers can be prevented

Most often, this myth is associated with the consumption of olive oil to the heavy alcoholic libations. Or maximum fat snack while drinking.

It is believed that olive oil coats the mucous membrane of the esophagus and intestines, and thereby reduces the absorption of alcohol.

In fact, the mucous membrane area is so great that it completely cover the need many liters of olive oil. You do not drink so much.

The myth that fatty food prevents hangover, also deserves serious relationship. On the contrary - fatty foods is an additional burden on the liver, which is already "full" loaded with alcohol processing.

3. You need to drink as much water

In fact, the hangover caused not by dehydration. Alcohol itself does not take water from the body, but only results in its accumulation in the tissues (so you're quite likely to sometimes could not recognize his swollen face in the mirror in the morning).

Drink water with a hangover, of course, necessary, but not the barrels.

4. Wonder brine

The old myth that to deal with a hangover should drink cucumber pickle, only partly justified. Neutral brine really helps to restore salt balance in the body. But if the brine contains vinegar, following the results you can expect more problems.

As I mentioned above, one of the key problems hangover - an excess of acetaldehyde in the blood. It's funny to try to remedy this situation by adding to the body even more vinegar.

5. You can not reduce the degree of

This is one of the oldest and most enduring myths. Ostensibly degrees during alcoholic libation can only improve, that is, for example, drink a beer at first, and then vodka. And if you drink a beer after the vodka, then a heavy hangover is inevitable.

In fact, it is not. The problem with alcohol intoxication is most often caused not by a sequence of different beverages, and mixing of alcoholic beverages, manufactured from different raw materials.

In fact, this means that it is better not to mix beer and wine. Or whiskey and cognac. And if you decide to dispatch time, using two or more different drinks, the order in which you do it does not matter.
