You need water; you need Advil; you need to lie in the dark until the dying-feeling subsides.

We’ve all been there, hangovers are brutal! Yet no matter how many times we tell ourselves that alcohol is the devil and will never touch our lips again, we are always somehow convinced to do otherwise (It’s college, of course). And the vicious cycle continues …

So how do you rid yourself of the pain, fast?

First, stay away from caffeine; it will worsen dehydration. Just stick to good old H2O and check out this weird but wonderful, hangover-curing concoction: The Almighty Hangover Emergency Cure, by SoYouWanna.com. This mixture will ease the pain and aid in rapid recovery.

1) Take 200mg cysteine, a supplement that counteracts poisonous effects of

metabolized alcohol.

2) Take 600mg of vitamin C.

3) Take one vitamin B-complex tablet.

4) Mix the following ingredients in a blender: one banana, one small can of V-8, six large strawberries, two tablespoons of honey, one cup of orange juice, one to two cups of milk, and a quarter teaspoon of salt. Tasty.

But remember, prevention will always save you from the worst hangover symptoms!
