New year, new terribly splitting headache that makes you want to curl up in a ball for the rest of the year. Some of you may be still dealing with the hangovers you incurred because of your New Year’s Eve shenanigans, but maybe the treatments we gave you yesterday just aren’t enough. Here are some hangover cures from around the world you can use to make sure the rest of your weekend doesn’t suffer.
In case you needed more reason it eat them, bacon sandwiches have been shown to help with your hangover by a British survey. Germans insist on eating pickled herring with gherkins and onions, while in the Philippines, people eat balut, or hard boiled fertilized duck egg, to break down the toxin acetaldehyde in the liver. Sicilians suggest consuming pizzle to help with the effects, which is just a fancy way of living out your Fear Factor dreams and eating a bull penis. A myth in Vietnam points to ground-up rhino horn as the ultimate hangover treatment, but I wouldn’t try that at home.
What’s your go-to hangover cure?
