Best Hangover Cure and Prevention

Basic preparation can make a hangover much less severe, and truly stop it in some cases. But there is no "cure," and if you drink a ton you're going to suffer no matter what!

Mix and match to your preference and budget:
 
STARTING 5 HOURS BEFORE DRINKING
Basic: 5 hours prior, take 3 capsules of prickly pear cactus.
Additional: 2.5 hours to 1 hour before drinking take 2 borage oil softgels.
Overboard: Take 1 curcumin capsule 5 hour prior to drinking.
 
1-2 HOURS BEFORE DRINKING
Take 2-3 capsules of Flyby.

RIGHT BEFORE DRINKING
We've been testing out Zbiotics and while our verdict isn't in yet, we think this may potentially be the most effective product on this list, to the point where it could negate other preparations. Will update.

WHILE DRINKING 
Hydration: Stay hydrated, but you don't have to drown yourself in H20. Just don't dehydrate
 
AFTER DRINKING
Basic: Take 3 LES Labs DeToxx or 3 "Cheers" capsules.
Additional: Eat 2 Zaca tablets

THE NEXT DAY
Sleep in: Obvious, but your body needs time and rest to recover.
Replenish: Fluids and food. For rehydration/electrolytes, we like DripDrop or RecoverORS.
Additional: Eat two Zaca tablets.
