How to kill a normal to medium range hangover

1. Eat a moderate breakfast: 1-2 cups of semi-sweet coffee/tea, 1-2 toast bread with cheese/jam/Nutella, fresh fruits etc. Don't over eat!

2. After 20-30 minutes, take 2 Advil liqui-gel pills with milk or juice

3. Wait for about 2-3 hours, lay down and watch something preferably unimportant, avoid reading if possible, listen to some relaxing music e.g. Playlist 4.

4. Eat a moderate lunch. Avoid greasy, heavy food

5. Continue to rest for about 1-2 hours, take a nap or something, don't oversleep as it may ruin your whole day

6. Have some juice and cookies and then head to the gym

7. Run on the treadmill for max. 40 minutes (which includes 2 five minutes of warm-up and cool down) at the speed that suits you best, avoid running very fast. Alternatively you can hit the stationary cycles but follow the same scheme

8. Work out lightly at the gym for about 30 minutes, avoid heavy weights and intensity, drink a lot of water during the work out

9. Take a shower, you're good as new!

well, my friend your low to medium hang-over will be gone after 6+ hours. The question is do you have a quick solution? I work mostly on preventive mechanism which is drinking lots of water before passing out, sometimes you forget though (no f...ing surprise!!!)

Alrighty, then I'd go for lots of water before and during sleeping, one cup of coffee brewed by me!, 2 Advil liqui-gels topped with "Comfortably Numb", that's your quick fix right there!
