What To Eat In Advance To Avoid A Hangover?

Everyone is painfully familiar with severe headaches, disorientation, a strange feeling in the stomach or, in a word, a hangover, after drinking a few more glasses on occasion.


To avoid morning sickness, it is important to choose food before drinking alcohol and whether to drink properly. Here are some tips for proper nutrition from leading British nutritionists and experts:




1. Baked ripe beans, drizzled with Worcestershire sauce in combination with wholemeal bread, finely chopped avocado and a glass of apple juice

Baked beans, avocados and cereals are a rich source of energy. Consuming them two hours before going out to the party is enough to not feel hungry all night, says nutritionist Yasmina Govinji.

Adding Worcestershire sauce reduces stomach acidity and slows down the absorption of beans. In this way, the effect of alcohol will not be so strong and fast.


Apple juice hydrates the body and provides vitamin C, from which the body is deficient in alcohol consumption.

Alcohol consumption lowers blood sugar levels, which is one of the causes of morning sickness and cold sweats. This combination of foods will prevent a drop in blood sugar levels, Govinji said.

2. Lamb chop with sweet potatoes and peas, in addition to yogurt and a glass of water

Consumption of these foods at lunch will slow down the process of breaking down alcohol in the blood, and therefore rapid drinking, says nutritionist Dr. Sarah Schenker.
 

Lamb is rich in protein, which energizes the body, and sweet potatoes provide energy slowly and gradually.


Sweet potatoes are rich in zinc and vitamin A, which are essential for strengthening the immune system, which sharply weakens when alcohol is consumed.


Yogurt is a natural probiotic - it reduces intestinal problems and stomach upset, which occurs in the morning after consuming large amounts of alcohol.



3. A slice of black bread with smoked salmon, tomato and cream cheese. For dessert - a banana and a large glass of orange juice
Alcohol is a strong diuretic, ie it leads to dehydration, which is one of the causes of morning headaches. These foods are high in potassium, which regulates fluid levels in the body.

Salmon and cream cheese are rich in fat and protein. The combination of these foods prevents the rapid breakdown of alcohol and regulates blood sugar levels in the body.

Banana, tomatoes and orange juice will provide the body with vitamins B and C, which will increase energy and strengthen the immune system.


This is the perfect breakfast before a big party, says nutritionist Karina Norris.

4. Sutlyash or milk with rice, sliced ​​mango and a cup of tea

A glass of fresh or yogurt is a traditional drink before an evening party. Rice milk, in addition to the important properties of milk to reduce the irritating sensation in the stomach, saturates and prevents the rapid breakdown of alcohol.


Finely chopped mango added to the casserole will provide the required dose of vitamins C, A and B.


The cup of tea is intended to avoid dehydration due to alcohol.


This recipe is suitable if you are limited by time, says Dr. Schenker.

5. Vegetables, lentil soup, milk shake with skim milk, banana and a teaspoon of honey

Lentil soup saturates and allows the slow release of carbohydrates. This, in turn, slows down the effects of alcohol, says Sian Porter of the British Diet Association.

Crushed vegetables such as carrots and tomatoes help in the faster absorption of beta-carotene and its subsequent conversion into vitamin A. Vitamin A is easily depleted by the use of high-grade drinks.


Milk shake is rich in proteins and fiber, which charge the body with energy.
 

6. Scrambled eggs in combination with rye bread and a glass of low-fat milk

This afternoon breakfast balances the slow breakdown of carbohydrates and proteins, keeping blood sugar levels within normal limits throughout the evening, says nutritionist Fiona Hunter.

Rye bread also maintains blood sugar levels, much more stable than white or whole grain bread.


Eggs and low-fat milk are rich in minerals and vitamins, including group B. They help prevent unwanted vomiting after drinking alcohol.
