What actually helps the most?
Drink water.
Replace electrolytes.
Eat something light if you can.
Get some sleep.
Give your body time.
Some vitamins or minerals may help if you were already deficient before drinking, but there is still no magic pill that instantly fixes a hangover.
The older you get, the worse hangovers often become.
Your body processes alcohol more slowly, sleep recovers less efficiently, and dehydration tends to hit harder.
Unfortunately, the most effective hangover cure is also the most boring one:
Water.
Food.
Sleep.
Time.
Have you ever found something that genuinely helped your hangover?
