Our guess is that you’re reading this and it’s Tuesday, the day after Labor Day. Also guessing that you are hungover. Massively. It’s highly likely that you have a raging headache, perhaps a little bit of nausea and possibly a lot of regrets.
We were tempted to simply state that the best way to deal with the post-LD blues is to throw back as much GoMo tea as possible. But that would be selfish. And this isn’t about us. It’s about you and your raging hangover.
Soooo, on that note, here are a couple of tips for surviving your day.
1. Drink lots of water. We know this is a big DUH, but you need to hydrate. And know how hard this can be, especially if you are having stomach issues. Sometimes the last thing you want to do is drink a lot more of anything. When you drink, the hormone that conserves fluid from When you drink alcohol, it inhibits the secretion of a hormone from your brain that conserves fluid from your kidneys. Even if you do drink water and eat while boozing, you’re still losing vital nutrients and fluids and can become dehyrated. Dehydration is the Devil. Hopefully you drank at least a glass of water before you went to be. Continue this trend by drinking more steadily throughout the day.
2. If you have to take something for a hangover headache, stay away from acetaminophen. Good old Tylenol doesn’t play well with alcohol if you’ve consumed too much alcohol and can reek havoc on your liver. Your liver is already pissed at you for last night (and likely this weekend too), don’t give it any more reasons to revolt in anger, pop some Advil instead.
3. Pop a B Vitamin. Put on your sunglasses to avoid the blinding, taunting sunlight, go to the store and get some B6 if you don’t have any at home (in pill form or brewer’s yeast if you’re feeling adventurous). Studies have shown that B6 or pyritinol helps combat the effects of overconsumption of alcohol. (PS, GoMo’s custom blend contains pyritinol. Just sayin’…)
Alright, there you go, a few tips to help you get through the hell that is the day after Labor Day. Good luck and godspeed.
