What is the best remedy for a hangover?

ephi4real @ephi4real (564) • Nigeria 13 Feb 07

I woke up this morning with a hangover and I'm still feeling groggy. What remedy can you suggest for a hangover? Lots of people have their own solutions and I would like to hear them please.

Melusine I highly recommend drinking a bottle of icecold Shweppse Tonic. The Quinina it contains does help. On the other hand, to prevent hangover, I found that drinking half a liter of milk before going to sleep does greatly reduces the effect of sxcess alcohol

Have you been to Israel recently?

rachelcaron @rachelcaron (1679) • United States 6 Dec 06

The last time I was in Israel was in 1999. I was wondering what it is like now and if it has changed a lot. If you went recently, did you feel safe? When I was there (all 3 times) I felt completely safe. I even traveled by...
