Headache, nausea, fatigue, and dehydration following alcohol consumption.
Replacing minerals lost through alcohol's diuretic effect.
How to Use
Drink coconut water or an electrolyte solution upon waking. Add a pinch of sea salt and lemon to water. Aim for 32oz in the first 2 hours.
Why It Works
Alcohol inhibits ADH (antidiuretic hormone), causing excessive urination and loss of sodium, potassium, and magnesium. Replenishing these minerals addresses the root cause of most hangover symptoms.
A liver-protective herb that supports alcohol metabolism.
How to Use
Take 200-400mg of standardized milk thistle extract (70-80% silymarin) before drinking and again the next morning.
Why It Works
Silymarin is a potent antioxidant that protects liver cells from acetaldehyde (the toxic byproduct of alcohol metabolism) and supports glutathione production, the liver's primary detoxification molecule.
B vitamins depleted by alcohol metabolism.
How to Use
Take a B-complex supplement before bed after drinking and again in the morning.
Why It Works
Alcohol depletes B1 (thiamine), B6, B12, and folate. These vitamins are essential for energy metabolism, neurotransmitter production, and clearing acetaldehyde.
