Seven tips for drinking:
1) Never drink on an empty stomach - food slows down the absorption of alcohol. Before you start drinking, line your stomach with something solid, like bread, and perhaps a non-acidic drink like milk
2) Cut down on cigarettes as smoking makes you thirsty
3) Pace yourself when you drink. Alternate some soft drinks with the alcoholic ones
4) Before going to bed drink plenty of water to help reduce the effects of dehydration. Keep a glass of fruit juice by your bed in case you wake in the night. Besides relieving thirst, it will boost vitaimin C levels
5) In the morning, if you do not feel like food, drink fruit juices and honey
6) Avoid drinking coffee as this increases dehydration
7) Avoid "hair of the dog" cures which involve drinking more alcohol. These may provide a temporary cure, but will make you feel worse in the long run.
