The hangover is exactly that, the poisonous hangover from the night or day before due to the aftereffects of the alcoholic drinks on your body. Quite simply, you poison your body and it reacts badly—no surprise there. For those times when we have just too good a time and overdo it, here are some handy hints on ways to spend the day before, and the morning and the day after.

We know it’s not good to get drunk and that it damages our bodies. We know that alcohol is addictive and a drug. We know how disgusting we feel the next day… but whatever we know and however much we know, if we drink alcohol, sooner or later we are going to drink too much!

We know we should stop when we feel “happy and relaxed” while drinking, but feeling happy and relaxed puts us in the mood for another drink—and so it goes on. After a drinking bout we feel ghastly and disgusting; our brain feels too big for our heads and our stomachs feel stewed.

Yet despite this we keep on going back for more, and the one lesson we just don’t learn is that alcohol truly pickles the brain.

What can we do to avoid hangovers? This book contains countless suggestions for supplements, remedies, exercises, treatments, treats, and tellings-off. There are new attitudes, new ideas, and more effective solutions to get you through the overindulgence and apologize to your body for the overabuse. Prevention is better than cure, so we look at lots of ways to stop after-effects from being quite so terrible and prevent them from taking their toll in the first place.

Quite simply, detox your hangover and you need never say “never again.”

The Quick-Fix Hangover Detox is arranged in three sections. Ideally you should read all three at a time when you are not even contemplating a drink—preparation and prevention is key.

Before

Here are some essential preventative and preparatory steps to help you prepare for overindulgence, some key facts to arm yourself with for an evening or a day out involving alcohol, and some thoughts to consider just in case you were not entirely clear about how you might feel or what you will have actually done to your body by this time tomorrow.

If it is already tomorrow, don’t punish yourself about what could have been. Go straight to “After.”

If it is still “Before,” then congratulations! Well done and read on.

During

Here we deal with how to cheat with alcohol, how not to drink too much, how not to drink at all, and how to put in place some sneaky steps to make tomorrow more bearable for everyone.

If you are just about to leave the house on a “big night out,” then read this in the car or cab—there is still time to save the day.

and After

Shhhh! Very quietly now… “After” starts on page 41. Turn slowly to the section and see if you can focus on any of the suggestions on what to do, take, or think—no sudden moves now. Keep warm, drink lots of water, and take some advice.
