3. GINGER OR PEPPERMINT TEA
Although the above study found Sprite may be more effective than herbal teas, other studies suggest sipping on ginger or peppermint tea soothes hangover-related nausea and stomach aches.
A 2003 study published in the ‘American Journal of Physiology’ and a 2008 study published in ‘Prescrire International’ both found the teas can reduce nausea and motion sickness when used appropriately (Ginger has long been a remedy for seasickness).
In addition green tea is also known to be helpful to the liver, as EGCG (Epigallocatechin galate) has been shown to stimulate key detoxification pathways – so a cup or two after a heavy night’s drinking may be a great idea.
