Tips to avoid holiday hangovers
Looking forward to imbibing a few this holiday season? The National Headache Foundation has a few suggestions:
-If you drink, do so in moderation
-Try to sip your drink slowly
-Mixed drinks containing fruit or vegetable juices will probably have less effect than straight alcohol
-Avoid red wine, as it contains chemicals that may cause headaches
-Reduce the number of alcoholic beverages you consume
-Eat some honey or drink some tomato juice
-Drink fluids containing minerals and salts
-Drink a cup of coffee
-Take ibuprofen
-Alternate beverages between alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages
-Eat greasy food before imbibing
The foundation suggests trying this “champagne fooler.”
-1 1/3 cups apple juice
-1 teaspoon lemon juice
-12 ounces club soda
Chill four glasses. Mix together apple juice and lemon juice. Add club soda and stir gently to blend. Pour into glasses and serve immediately. Yields four servings.
