I drank up 1/2 pint of Jim Beam for approximately 2 hours, then was challenged to drink up another 1/2 pint of Jim Beam UP STRAIGHT. I drank up all 1/2 pint and got so wasted, had good time talking about stuffs that went on in life and so on. Then in the next morning, I got hangover. I'm trying to figure out a preventive action that can prevent or reduce hangover before I go to bed. Do anyone have experience where one got wasted, then did something to prevent hangover from taking place, the next morning? Alex, I know you love to drink and I'm sure you got advice for me. Anyone else? :)

drink a gallon of water and keep drinking water throughout the day. The headache will lessen and your body & mind will be happy to have water. :) :thumb:

Will try that, thanks Heath.

Anyone else?
 
The only thing that works for me is not to drink in the first place. If you find a sure fire cure, you'd better patent it! You'll make a fortune.

There have been times I would have been willing to clean out my bank account for such a cure.

However, alcohol is very dehydrating and much of the misery comes from that. Maybe if you drink lots of water before, during and after, it won't be so bad.
 
:lol:

What I do, which works for me is not to drink. Yes, I have a bottle of wine in my fridge, but I sure as heck don't drink more than one glass per day. If you are drinking more than that, you sure can't drink, can you? Sounds like there's a drinking problem and you need to either go get help or quit on your own.
 
I'm not an alcoholic. I drink once in a while, and when I do drink, I love to get that heavy buzz to where my imagination go wild. I only do that at parties which take place once or twice a month.

So let's assume that I *do* want to drink and to get wasted. no-drink is definitely a good way to prevent hangover.

So far water is the biggest redemy to *Reduce* the hangover.

Anything else?
 
If you are gonna drink.

Drink for social , 1 or 2 is enough ... There will always be beer wine and spirits there.

Don't drink to get drunk. Drink to enjoy a good time chatting and having fun.
 
Try this—I guarantee it will work. If I have some time tomorrow I’ll post some more on the subject, including some references which explain why it works and the chemistry behind it.

Take the following before you start drinking: 1 gram (1000 milligrams) of the amino acid cysteine, 3 grams (3000 milligrams) of vitamin C (ascorbic acid), and 50 – 100 milligrams of vitamin B1 (thiamin). You can buy all of these at any health food store. Make sure you take cysteine, NOT cystine. Check the spelling on the bottle carefully.

It also helps immensely to drink ‘clean’ alcohol—alcoholic beverages which have the least amount of fusel alcohols. Vodka has the least amount of fusel alcohols of any distilled spirit, and SKYY has the least amount of fusel alcohols of any brand of vodka currently marketed. SKYY is extremely close to being a mixture of pure ethyl alcohol and water—it is as clean you can possibly get.
 
take it from me....

the best way to get off a Jim Beam hangover is to sober up with some Jack Daniels.
 
some of my friends has said that don't go to bed drunk, if you want to drink, fine, get drunk, buzzed or whatever, but let it fade before go to bed, will less hangover, also another thing is to drink a tall glass of water before go to bed. I don't know if that works or not, i have never tried it, but then i don't drink much. but if you drink way too much that you passed out, hmm i dont think there is anything u can do about preventing hangover. :lol:
 
I hate hangover, I used to promise myself dont drink again but i forgot, i was told before going in bed drink alot of cold water or with ice, try to stay up if u can when buzz went away, it worked, I never got passed out/blacked out cuz when i felt about drunk, enough no more drinking ask for/switch to cold water
 
Good morning,

I usually eat (like a sandwich) and drink a glass of water before I go to bed. What works for me may not work for you, though. ;)
 
1/2 pint of Jim Beam (whisky) within 2 hours? You drink fast... :jaw:... wow

mmmhhh my last hangover was at 19 years ago... (1987 in Cyprus)... :D After that I learn my lesson...



If you want to drink alot (Binge-drinking) again then need to put full foods in your stomach before you drink... no hangover/severe headache afterward.

If your stomach can tolerate it, eat some protein. I don't know what this might do (I'm not a drinker, but I've seen my parents get blasted, and this is what they do for the resulting hangover), but I've heard it helps to balance out the sugar levels, which makes you feel better. But, water is also your best bet. One of the reasons a person feels so bad after drinking is because, they get dehydrated. Drinking quantities of water helps prevent that.

Good luck, and don't party too hard! ;)
 
Alright. Looks like massive water and some food is the mostcommon denominator in hangover reduction. I will experiment with it and see what best suit me. Thanks y'all for the advice!

So far, my favorite is Jim Beam with coca cola and Long Islands Tea. Since I'm pretty much middle experienced drinker (in past 3 years) I would like to explore different mixed drinks (two toned, meaning 1 alcohol with something added like Jim Beam and coca cola).
 
I prefer to drink wine or champagne moderately... no more hangover...

Exactly why I don't drink to get drunk. I have a glass of German Peppermint Schnapps with ice. Just drink alittle, read the newspapers , a good book or when I am reading my Bible.
