Tag: Greasy food hangover

According to a study published in the *Journal of Clinical Medicine*, there is little scientific evidence that heavy, greasy food helps a hangover after alcohol has been absorbed. The popular myth that a McDonald's meal will 'soak up' the alcohol is incorrect, and in fact, fast food might make you feel worse by irritating an already sensitive stomach lining.

According to the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism, hangover symptoms appear to be at their worst when your blood alcohol concentration returns to zero, leaving many to wonder what they can do for relief. So, what should I not take for a hangover? The answer involves avoiding certain medications, foods, and other substances that can exacerbate symptoms or cause further harm to your body.
