Scientists have proven that the best hangover cure is sold in every super market...
Have you ever had a hangover so bad you want to just stay in bed all day and forget about life.. Coffee makes you sick. You're hungry, but when you go to eat you can't have more than a bite. Yeah that is pretty common stuff, you will probably swear off alcohol- and that might last for a few days..
But Scientists give us a new...or old... remedy for hangovers... They say you should drink Sprite. Apparently a study was done in China where they tested 57 beverages and it did not alter the effects of booze on your body the way other beverages did.
This might go over some of your heads (It did mine), but Chemistry world says:
Some of the adverse effects of alcohol are thought to be caused, not by the ethanol itself, but by ethanol’s first metabolite, acetaldehyde. Ethanol is metabolized into acetaldehyde by the enzyme alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) and then into acetate by aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH).
Unlike acetaldehyde, acetate is innocuous and may even be responsible for some of the positive health benefits of alcohol consumption. Therefore the key to reducing alcohol-related damage lies in minimizing the amount of time acetaldehyde is present in the body.
The Study is generating a lot of buzz, but in reality it does need a bit more work done. They are going to test their findings on living organisms next to see the effects.
Death to hangovers!
