We've all heard it: Eat a big plate of carbs before you drink to avoid a hangover. Sounds great, right? A nice plate of pasta or a giant slice of pizza might feel like the perfect pre-party ritual, but does it actually work?
Carb Loading: What’s the Deal?
Carb-loading before drinking is based on the idea that carbohydrates absorb alcohol and slow its effects on your body. In truth, eating carbs can help delay alcohol absorption by creating a buffer in your stomach, but they don’t prevent a hangover altogether. The carbs may slow down how quickly alcohol enters your bloodstream, giving your liver more time to metabolize it. But this doesn’t address the root cause of a hangover—dehydration, loss of electrolytes, and alcohol's toxic byproducts.
The Reality: Carbs Aren’t Enough
While carbs might keep you from getting drunk too quickly, they won’t prevent the dreaded hangover. A night of drinking can still leave you dehydrated, depleted of essential nutrients, and waking up with a throbbing headache. So, even though a plate of fries before your night out might slow things down, it’s far from a magical hangover cure.
Enter Morning Fresh: The Real Hangover Hero
