HALLOWEEN HANGOVER PLAN
Many still believe that the only prevention is not to drink mainly because there is not a serious research backed remedy out there.
But as we all know, everyone drinks too much now and then, and some of us get hangovers from just one drink – so planning and prevention are still worthy causes.
A common misconception is that it’s all about dehydration. But it is about many things including depletion of key nutrients, inflammation, oxidation, and more. Everyone is different too, so what works for one may not be enough for another.
HERE ARE MY TOP TIPS:
PLAN AHEAD
- Start drinking extra water with Electrolytes through out the day, not just at the event. Showing up thirsty guarantees you’ll drink more than you should. If you know you will be at a crowded place, with long lines, bring your own water. Ideally you should drink half your body weight in ounces, daily, so if you weigh 150lb’s you’ll drink 75 oz of water daily.
- Eat balanced meals throughout the day and just before hitting the party, to be sure you keep your blood sugar balanced, thereby avoiding the carbohydrate craving that can lead to over drinking.
- Pack your supplements Bring your supplements with you in a plastic bag or in your pocket so they are handy and you remember to take every few drinks
- Leave your ‘before bed’ supplements and Electrolyte drink or Coconut water along with a BIG glass of water on your nightstand, to take before sleep.
AT THE PARTY
- Take hourly: B vitamins, the amino acids N-Actyle Cysteine & Glutamine, C or a good multivitamin but the B’s need to be Methylated

- Take your Amino Acids throughout the day but before protein, so before you go, after the first hour, etc.
- Then eat and continue taking your B vitamins & White Willow Bark every hour.
- Leave your ‘before bed’ supplements and Electrolyte drink or Coconut water along with a BIG glass of water on your nightstand, to take before sleep.
