[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I always seem to forget to eat much before I drink, which I know doesn’t help.

Yesterday [b]I had 2.5 light beers[/b], with a light dinner [b]afterwards and I had tons of water [/b]and 2 advil before bed, and even still, today is a semi wasted day for me. I ran some errands this morning, but then needed a long nap. No headache but I feel out of it.

To those who drink, what do you do to prevent this?

And again, abstinence is not an acceptable answer. Move on [/quote]

Are you over 70 and less than 100lbs? Do you have liver problems or kidney issues? 
Or were those 2 drinks pitcher sized? I really don't see how that is possible to be hungover from not even being legally intoxicated, much less to the point of drunkenness. [/quote]

That's enough for me to get a hangover (but not intoxicated). I almost never drink, though.[/quote]

Something's not quite right there. Could be genetic. Certain ethnic backgrounds have genetics that make it hard to break down ethanol, so that could be it.

I'd suggest hydrating before drinking, and also after. [b]Milk is also an old and highly effective preventative and especially hangover cure, as it has all the proper electrolytes, unlike all the unhealthy sports drinks which are loaded in salt and potassium only[/b].

Other than that, drink QUALITY drinks, not those cheap adjunct rice and [b]corn brewed nasty American Pilsner style lagers, as they are garbage. Any beer marketed as "light" will be one of those. Junk. [/quote][/b]

Milk? Really? Do you drink it before you drink? [b]You can, but more effective aftwards for hydration and proper nutrition. 
[/b]
Beers. What do you recommend? [b]Natural unpasteurized and unfiltered Ales, either light or dark as you prefer, or higher quality lagers if you prefer their taste.[/b]

When I drink IPA, I’ve noticed I feel tipsy faster and also get a headache soon after.[b] IPA's have tons of hops, which help preserve the beer, hence the term India Pale Ale, and yeah hoppy beers tend to be highber ABV as well, but the hops themselves, while flavorful and wonderful, contribute to toxins as they are toxins themselves, so picking an IPA or other highly hopped ale as a sessions beer and drinking a dozen pints of them would be more intoxicating and worse hangover than drinking say a dozen less hopped beers. 
It's not just IPAs that are highly hopped either. Some stouts such as imperial stouts have quite a few hops in the brew, but balanced out with darker roasted barley and more malt.

I randomly had Michelob ultra light at a bbq recently and I felt much better. [b]That's a garbage beer. If it were a food, it would be a gas station hot dog equivilant. [b]Fine for occasional consumption, but having a bunch of those would wreck you the next day due to larger amounts of toxins and poor quality ingredients.[/b] Same as eating a bunch of salted deli meat, makes you feel bad compared to a quality steak and vegetables.

This is pseudo science [/quote]
