What is Hangover?

Also called: Drunkenness

Hangover caused by Drunkenness always cause a hideous headache the very next day. It is a myth that only heavy drinkers have Hangovers. On the contrary, moderate drinkers are more likely to suffer from Hangover as compared to heavy drinkers. The first thing which alcohol does is, cause dehydration by its desiccant actions. Alcohol switches off an anti-dehydration mechanism in the body; causing you to urinate more often than you should. Alcohol also stresses your liver, making it less able to produce glucose. Alcohol also affects the chemicals that cells in your body use to communicate with each other. Finally, alcohol has an inflammatory effect, making your blood vessels swell. This is why some people don't have to wait until morning for their headache. The main indirect effects of alcohol come from a chemical called acetaldehyde, made as your body processes the booze. This chemical works like a drug, making you sweat and flush, your heart race, and your stomach turn nauseous. If enough acetaldehyde accumulates in your body, you vomit. Another indirect effect of alcohol is disturbed sleep. This is why it's so hard to "sleep off" Hangovers.

Tamir Goren "When my mother fell ill with cancer I wanted to find a natural solution to help with her suffering. After an excessive research I learned about Wheatgrass. And it seemed to work! She passed through chemotherapy with ease. But was it the Wheatgrass? And if it was, how come it was so hard to find out about it?"
