Conventional wisdom suggests that it's the dehydrating effects of alcohol and the associated loss of electrolytes--electrically charged minerals in the body that help balance water content and acid levels--which are largely responsible for some of the most common hangover symptoms. This is may be wrong, according to the study.
Various natural remedies have been recommended to ease hangover symptoms, but there is as yet no strong scientific evidence for their use.
In a bid to address that, researchers from the the University of Mainz in Germany set out to assess whether the symptoms of veisalgia (the scientific word for a hangover) can be reduced by intense water supply and the intake of antioxidative supplements and plant extracts.
The plant extracts included Barbados cherry (Acerola), prickly pear, ginkgo biloba, willow and ginger root. The vitamins and minerals included magnesium, potassium, sodium bicarbonate, zinc, riboflavin, thiamin and folic acid.
Some 214 healthy 18-65 year olds were randomly split into three groups and given a 7.5 g flavoured, water soluble supplement 45 minutes before, and immediately after they stopped drinking any of beer, white wine, or white wine spritzer.
The first group (69) were given a supplement containing the plant extracts, vitamins and minerals, and additional antioxidant compounds--steviol glycosides and inulin. The second group (76) were given a supplement minus the plant extracts, while the third group (69) were given glucose alone (placebo).
