Caffeine and painkillers are the best way to combat the unpleasant effects of a hangover.
Researchers at Thomas Jefferson University in Philadelphia have discovered that the chemical acetate, which is produced when the body is exposed to ethanol, is responsible for the headache associated with a hangover.In testing involving lab rats, the researchers then found that the old standbys of caffeine and ibuprofen will best neutralize the painful, next-day effects of acetate.
Sadly, but appropriately, this scientific confirmation of conventional wisdom will be our last Happy Hour Hero. It's been a pleasure serving you up a steady stream of facts.
