What really happens to your body when you drink too much

A BC Powder taken before drinking and another after drinking will prevent ANY hangover.
This was my remedy last Wednesday night - I had 2 beers in the bar, 6 Jack and cokes & and glass of wine during dinner, probably 10 beers afterward during our trip down Bourbon Street. Plus I went back to the hospitality suite and polished off a bottle of JD.
Thursday morning I woke up bright eyed and bushy tailed - much to the chagrin of my coworkers, who's eyes all looked like p*ssholes in the snow! :)
Why go to New Orleans if you're not gonna party, right?

Golly I can't drink worth beans,2 G&Ts at most. I did try when I was at New Orleans quite a few years ago,drank 2 hurricanes and was fine until next morning.We were high up 23rd floor or something in hotel,I stepped into the elevator and it hurdled to the lower floor,everybody else got out,I pushed the 23 floor button,went back and to sleep. The ride almost did me in.

No wonder I had not heard of this before. I used to use Dristan just before bed. The decongestant properties made it a wonderful headache preventative.

I very rarely drink like that anymore. Why? Because just about all of my 20s are a total blur - I used to do this every DAY! Even at work during lunch, I'd have 2 or 3 drinks. It wasn't just me - that was just the culture at the time (late 70s, early 80s) when you were a young white-collar worker.
I'd leave work tipsy, go out and get drunk, go home shower, change clothes and go back to work. Yup, we'd be out all night long. It's a wonder I have the brain cells I do.

It's a headache powder made mostly with aspirin. It's in a little white piece of paper and you open it and sprinkle it on the back of your tongue.
It doesn't taste very good, but it works!!

Huddy's Mama, sorry I was lost in another thread..still trying to keep up and find myself getting dizzy some days. No alcohol included.. Thanks for the 411 on the BC Powder. Do you ask for it in the pharmacy? I'm not planning to need it (not me) just curious.
Networker...I went to the wilipedia article and found it interesting. I'd never heard of it...Thank You!

I was listening to the radio yesterday and heard this about hangovers:
Because one of the chief causes of headache is dehydration try to drink at least 2 pints of water before you go to bed if you have been drinking. Because alcohol is a diuretic you pee away a lot of minerals you need, especially potassium.
Alcohol also irritates the stomach lining.
So the hangover cure recommended was a banana milkshake made with cream (to line soothe and protect the stomach lining) and milk (to boost fluid intake). bananas are chock full of potassium and if taken with any analgesic this should deal with most hangovers.For some reason I never get them. I drink my fair share, but have never suffered the next day.
