How to beat the headaches.
Why do I feel so lousy?
The reason you feel so bad the morning after a boozing session is largely down to the by-products left in your system. As a general rule, the darker the drinks, the more by-products and the worse the hangover.
The symptoms:
- Headaches: alcohol makes the body lose water and dehydration is the main reason why you're left with such a sensitive head;
- Nausea and trembling: your blood sugar levels drop in the wake of an alcohol onslaught, which can make you feel sick and delicate;
- Irritability: alcohol is a depressant drug and you're suffering from the comedown.
