Foods to combat hangovers

I did contemplate not writing this blog.  Well, my view is that you get what you deserve if you drink too much.  Anyhow, here are some foods which help to reduce the suffering:- 

Banana – the high content of B6 in bananas apparently reduces hangover symptoms. 

Eggs – well, sure you’ve heard it suggested that you eat eggs post a heavy night out but probably not known why.  Eggs are good because they contain cysteine and this breaks down alcohol.  I wouldn’t suggest you risk a raw egg though, try them poached or soft boiled. 

Natural Yoghurt – this boosts your B5 levels which will have dropped due to the alcohol you have consumed.  It should also help line the stomach in a gentle way.
