and the winning (scientific) hangover cure in the steamworks contest is: Scientific Solution: 1. Rehydrate - start with water. 2. Rebalance your electrolytes: sports drink, banana (potassium), maybe a fruit smoothie (for some additional vitamins, nutrients and raw sugar energy). 3. Remove the acetaldehyde (toxic byproduct of metabolizing alcohol) with some eggs for breakfast (cysteine breaks it down). 4. Reduce the headache with some caffeine (once your hydration is under control). While it wakes you up so you ca face the day, caffeine is also a vasoconstrictor, which can help reduce a headache. Note: Tea will be easier on the stomach than an acidic coffee. Cheers!

i'm no scientist, but i can tell you my beverage of choice after a work-out has always been beer well, maybe not always but for sure since my first ever rugby match i was told beer has electrolytes in it so i figured that's why i crave it after a hard game or a long run but maybe, just maybe there's more to it and apparently the more to it also makes it good for me!! yay - i love when i get told by sciencey people that beer is good for me! new research says drink wheat beers after a marathon its all in the polyphenols!
