We’ve all been there – the groggy head, the queasy stomach, the never-ending thirst. 

Yes, it’s a hangover. 

And it sucks. 

But don’t worry, we’re here to help.

In this post, we are going to cover the 5 best tips to prevent a hangover.

Let’s dive in!

What Is A Hangover?

So what exactly is a hangover? 

A hangover is caused by a combination of factors, including dehydration, electrolyte imbalance, and inflammation. 

Alcohol dehydrates your body and depletes your body of electrolytes like sodium and potassium. 

This can lead to headaches, fatigue, and muscle aches. 

The inflammation comes from the fact that alcohol is a toxin and your body is working hard to get rid of it.

5 Best Tips To Prevent A Hangover

While a hangover cannot be completely avoided, if you take the steps below the night that you are drinking, you will feel better the following morning.

Please note that if you consume significant amounts of alcohol, no number of tips we provide can prevent a hangover.

With that being said, let’s go over the best tips we recommend.

1. Get A Hangover Support Supplement.

A hangover support supplement is something you can utilize before drinking and after drinking to reduce the potential for having a hangover after drinking.

One supplement we recommend you taking is VitaVida’s Liver Detox gummies.

These gummies contain l-glutathione and silymarin (a glutathione upregulator)

Ingredients such as these can be used to potentially help with oxidative stress from alcohol consumption.

2. Avoid Drinking Too Much Alcohol In One Sitting. 

Stick to one or two drinks and make sure you space them out over the course of the evening.

You can do this by opting for beer or wine to space your drinking.

3. Eat Before You Start Drinking. 

Before you start drinking, make sure you eat a proper meal.

A full stomach will help slow down the absorption of alcohol into your system.

4. Drink Plenty Of Water In Between Alcoholic Beverages. 

Make sure you drink water in between your drinks.

The reason you should do this is to keep you hydrated and prevent you from getting too drunk too quickly.

5. Avoid Sugary Mixers. 

Sugary mixers can cause a sugar crash later on in the night which will add to your hangover woes the next day.

Avoid them if you can.

Conclusion

In conclusion,hangovers are no fun, and we can only hope that our future endeavors include less of them. 

Fortunately, with a few simple tips, you can be on your way to feeling better in no time! 

Get plenty of sleep, drink plenty of water to stay hydrated, and don’t forget to chow down on some greasy breakfast food before anything else. 

So if you find yourself with a hangover, just remember: sleep it off and drink tons of water!
