2. Soup/Bone Broth
Okay, so maybe it sounds a little unconventional to spend hours making soup when you’re suffering from an excruciating hangover headache, but it’ll be worth it! Sure you could opt for the more convenient canned soup, but it won’t be nearly as beneficial. Specifically, any soup that has been stewed with the bones will do you wonders, as bone broth is packed with health benefits. Amino acids such as arginine and glutamine—both found in bone broths—will enhance protein metabolism; while the cysteine found in it is busy assisting glutathione to do its thing. Bone broth is also an excellent way to hydrate your body on top of restoring its sodium levels; some even compare its hydrating powers to that of H2O, itself due to the electrolytes that can be found in the broth. But, hey! What’s the broth without the meats, veggies, herbs and spices that only add to the nutritional value of this superb hangover remedy? As if soup doesn’t already have enough going for it, it can be made in advance and stored in your fridge or freezer for added shelf life. Do we smell a pre-hangover drunken shenanigan cookin’ here? And now, let’s see the number one in our list of best foods for a hangover headache.
