Waking up and feeling rough is often inevitable after a festive drinking session, but there are some tricks to make you feel better. I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but the only way to avoid a hangover is not to drink alcohol. Yet, with Christmas just around the corner, this can be easier said than done.
Hangovers can feel excruciating and are caused in part by a chemical called acetaldehyde, which is created when alcohol is broken down by the liver. Acetaldehyde is toxic and can cause inflammation of your major organs, such as your brain and liver.
