Instructions

• 1

  Rehydrate and detox with water and lemon. Fill a large mug with hot water and squeeze half a lemon. Do this to detox your liver before eating breakfast or adding anything else to your stomach. Sip on water throughout the day of your hangover, trying to get at least a glass of water every hour. Avoid all drinks, except for water, until your headache is gone. This includes not only caffeine, but fruit juices as well. The sugar in fruit juices will only interfere your hangover headache.

  Make a sugar-balance breakfast. Combine the detox breakfast ingredients and mix. This will give you a sustained release of energy, balancing your sugar levels. You may add an extra banana to the breakfast to correct the acid-to-alkaline levels in your body.

• 3

  Take B and Super C supplements. Take a B-complex and a Super C vitamin. Find the Super C vitamins in your health food store if your local drugstore does not carry them. Digest these supplements with the sugar-balance breakfast.

  Participate in mild exercise. Go for a long walk to purge toxins and increase energy levels. Try to aim for 30 minutes of mild to moderate walking pace. At minimum, walk around your yard or block and work up to a longer walk later in the day. If weather permits, choose outdoor exercise over indoor activity.

  Use hydrotherapy. Take a bath with sea salts. Add one cup of bath salts in a warm bath. This will help remove water retention and toxins. Use a bath sponge or washcloth to invigorate your body and help the skin soak in the healing properties.
