The 7 Myths of Hangover Cures Debunked

 All of those summer party invitations may often result in an abundance of libations, and even more so, the inevitable byproduct of those indulgences. The ‘morning after’ can mean pounding headaches, an insatiable appetite, and an uncontrollable thirst. To alleviate second-day remorse, we turn to the old wives tales of “curing” hangovers. If this sounds familiar to you, keep on reading to find out why these so called “cures” are just myths.
Hangover Cure


MYTH 1: DRINKING COFFEE


With the lack of energy and painful headaches, a cup of joe is not the answer! Sure, since caffeine is a stimulant, it will give you a jolt to combat early-morning fatigue. But, caffeine works as a diuretic just like alcohol, so that morning espresso will just dehydrate your body and may even intensify that headache. In addition, caffeine is a vasoconstrictor— it contracts blood vessels and reduces their size. This actually offsets the impact of alcohol by causing the blood vessel to swell instead, thus contributing to that persistent headache.
CURE: FALSE

MYTH 2: TAKING TYLENOL (ACETAMINOPHEN)

Tylenol (generically known as acetaminophen) is commonly used to treat minor headaches, reduce fever, and temporarily alleviate pain. However, when you ingest these pills, they can further damage your liver. Your liver is one of the largest organs in your body, and one of its vital functions is processing toxins for you. While the liver is busy metabolizing alcohol from the night (or morning) before, it breaks down acetaminophen differently to potentially produce harmful by-products. What this means is possible liver damage and cirrhosis.
CURE: FALSE

MYTH 3: HAIR OF THE DOG

This quirky expression originates from a Norwegian saying that indicates the best way to treat a hangover is to consume more of the substance (i.e., alcohol). Alcohol will initially lessen that grinding hangover, but as tempting as it may sound, will cause more dehydration. The hangover will ultimately come back to haunt you.
CURE: FALSE

 MYTH 4: EATING GREASY FOOD

Who doesn’t want an excuse to eat pizza and fries? Still, consuming a fatty meal the morning-after will divert the stomach from absorbing those essential recovery nutrients. Actually, a greasy start to the day might irate your used-and-abused stomach even more. So, instead of munching on that sizzling, evil burger after a night out, try munching on it before the night out to protect the stomach and prevent what could be the worst hangover of your life.
CURE: FALSE

MYTH 5: EXERCISING

You know the drill by now—feelings of exhaustion, persistent headaches and even nausea. If you feel like that in the morning, working out may not be the best way to rid the body of toxins. Alcohol is a diuretic, so it makes you urinate, and it will only cause the body to lose water easier, not necessarily the alcohol. An attempt at a major sweat session will only dehydrate the body even more. Hold off on being beautiful until you get your groove back.
CURE: FALSE

MYTH 6: SPORTS DRINK

Sports drinks such as Gatorade contain 3 essential components to combat that hangover: (1) electrolytes; (2) carbohydrates (3) water. Electrolytes include sodium, potassium, and chloride and are ingested to restore those that you lost on the dance floor. But, keep in mind that the human body can only absorb a maximum of about one quart of water per hour. So chugging the entire Gatorade bottle will result in the loss of most of its contents, especially that precious water containing the electrolytes.
CURE: SPORTS DRINK MAY GET THE JOB DONE IN A PINCH.

 MYTH 7: GLASS OF WATER BEFORE BED

It is no surprise that drinking water after a night on the town can help avert that dreadful morning headache. Why? Well, the tissues around your brain consist mostly of water, and dehydration will cause the tissues to shrink. This generates pressure in your head. But, the same explanation for Myth 6 applies here as well: your body can only absorb a certain amount of fluid before it all goes to waste. The water will help, but the more you drink, the more you waste. So, once your tired body reaches your bed, remember that glass of water shouldn’t be too full.
CURE: PREVENTION

How to Treat Food Poisoning

Food poisoning occurs when you eat food contaminated with bacteria, parasites, viruses or other toxins. These contaminants can get into your food in many different ways. The most common causes of contamination are from infected food handlers who don't wash their hands or wear gloves properly and from kitchenware or service utensils that weren't cleaned properly. Food poisoning can also occur when foods haven't been refrigerated at cold enough temperatures or cooked at hot enough temperatures. If you have food poisoning, you will most likely begin to feel the symptoms two to six hours after eating the contaminated food. The most common symptoms are vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal cramps, nausea and headaches [source: Mayo Clinic].

Most food poisoning doesn't require medical attention. If you think you may have gotten sick from mushrooms or shellfish, immediately contact a doctor. Otherwise, you'll usually recover from the most common types of food poisoning within a few days. Knowing how to recognize the symptoms and take care of yourself will help you feel better faster. Here's what to do [source: NYTimes Health].
Most importantly, make sure you drink lots of water. Your goal is to keep your body hydrated and replace the fluids lost by vomiting and diarrhea. Slowly sip water or suck on ice chips if you're having trouble keeping things down.
You shouldn't consume caffeinated beverages or dairy products until you feel completely better. Upset stomachs are easily irritated by these products.
You may not have much of an appetite, but it's important to consume calories to keep your energy up. Once the vomiting has stopped, you can start drinking liquids other than water, like broth, clear soda or flavored water (such as Sprite or Propel) or an electrolyte beverage (such as Gatorade).
When you feel up to it, you can start eating bland, easily digestible foods, like soda crackers, dry toast, plain rice, bananas or applesauce.
Take a probiotic. These contain good bacteria that help your body digest food, and can treat the symptoms caused by harmful bacteria by restoring the balance in your gut.
You shouldn't take anti-diarrheal medications. Your body is trying to get rid of the contaminants in your system, and preventing it from purging could make your illness worse.
Last, but certainly not least, get plenty of rest to help your body recover.

If your symptoms don't improve or get worse after two days, if you notice blood in your vomit or bowel movements or if you have a temperature over 101.5 F (38.6 C), contact your doctor [source: NYTimes Health].

7 Rare But Real Food Allergies


You hear a lot about the most common food allergies, however, in addition to the top eight, many other foods may cause an allergic reaction. In fact, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), more than 160 foods have caused food allergy reactions, demonstrating that many people react to foods that are outside the realm of the usual food allergens.

Cross-Reactivity

Oral allergy syndrome (OAS) or pollen-food allergy syndrome, is a condition where reactions in the mouth and throat occur from direct contact with food in a sensitized person who also has a respiratory allergy to inhaled allergens such as tree, weed, or grass pollens.

This sensitivity to both inhaled pollen and food is related to the similarity of allergen-containing proteins within both elements, called cross-reactivity. In other words, people with OAS have an allergy to inhaled plant materials that are related to the protein in the food that causes their oral symptoms.

Cross-reactivity has been documented between birch pollen, mugwort pollen, grass pollens, ragweed and Timothy grass with a variety of fruits, legumes and grains, nuts and seeds, and vegetable, herbs, and spices. The patterns and prevalence of cross-reactivity vary across the world, due to geographical and climatic differences.

Let's take a look at 5 of the most common foods related to OAS:

Apple Allergy

Apple allergy is correlated with OAS, with about 50 to 80 % of people with an allergy to birch pollen and mugwort pollen reacting to raw apple.

Symptoms of apple allergy primarily reside within the mouth and occur within 5 minutes of eating the offending food in most sensitive people.

Nearly all individuals will experience symptoms within 30 minutes of eating. Symptoms tend to resolve once the individual stops eating the apple. Severe reactions are possible, particularly if throat swelling is involved since this can cause breathing difficulty.

Citrus Allergy

An allergy to citrus fruits may include one or more of the following types: orange, grapefruit, lemon, and lime.

Reactions can range from an itchy mouth to full-fledged anaphylaxis. There is cross-reactivity between citrus fruit, suggesting the allergy to one citrus fruit increases the likelihood of allergy to another citrus fruit. Grass pollens, Timothy grass, birch pollen and mugwort pollen may cross-react with citrus fruit due to their similar protein make-up.

Banana Allergy

Allergic reactions to banana vary widely and may include itching of the mouth and throat, hives (urticaria), swelling (angioedema), and wheezing. Symptoms are most closely related to the oral allergy syndrome with localized symptoms in the mouth. In most cases, symptoms begin within minutes of eating the fruit.

Cross-reactivity between ragweed and banana is known.

If you have a banana allergy you could also react to natural rubber latex. Latex is produced from the sap of the rubber tree, which contains similar proteins to those in bananas and other foods such as kiwi and avocado.

Spice Allergy


Coriander is in the family of spices that includes caraway, fennel, and celery—all of which have been associated with allergic reactions.

Cinnamon, saffron, and mustard also have been noted for causing reactions.

Across the globe, spices have become some of the most common food allergens. It appears that cross-reactivity to birch pollen, mugwort pollen, grass pollens and Timothy grass are the most common culprits.

Celery Allergy

A celery allergy is relatively common and therefore considered a top allergen. Cross-reactivity to birch pollen and mugwort pollen, as well as grass pollens and Timothy grass have been identified. According to The Anaphylaxis Campaign, 30% to 40% of allergic individuals are sensitized to celery.

Coconut Allergy

Coconut allergy is very rare. According to the FDA, coconut is classified as a tree nut for the purposes of ingredient labeling and consumer protection. Coconut is not a tree nut, however, and most individuals with tree nut allergy can eat coconut without issue. While few individuals will have a coconut allergy, they do exist. This article provides a more in-depth review of coconut allergy.

Meat Allergy

Meat allergy is uncommon but some individuals have an allergy to meat, beef, lamb, pork, and goat. A red meat allergy to beef and pork is associated with a tick bite from the Lone Star tick. This tick can be found in the Southeast, from Texas up to New England.

Reactions to red meat are often delayed, occurring many hours after eating red meat, although this isn’t always the case. Common symptoms include nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea, with the most common being itching. An anaphylactic reaction may occur in individuals who exercise after ingesting red meat.

If you develop an allergy to one type of meat, you may develop an allergy to another type of meat, such as poultry. A very small number of children who are allergic to milk may also be allergic to meat.

The delay between eating red meat and symptoms makes diagnosing red meat allergy challenging. However, individuals with a true red meat allergy will test positive following an immunoglobulin E skin prick test.

Latex Allergy

When individuals who are allergic to latex consume a food containing a similar antigen (protein responsible for an allergic reaction), symptoms develop. This is called latex-fruit syndrome. Not all people who are allergic to latex will have this condition. Up to 50 to 70% of individuals with a natural rubber latex allergy are sensitized to other foods, especially fruit. It's most common to see cross-reactivity with avocado, banana, cassava, chestnut, kiwi, mango, papaya, passion fruit, tomato, turnip, zucchini, bell pepper, celery, potato, and custard apple. However, sensitivity to various other foods has been recorded.

If a latex-allergic person has had a reaction to a food, he or she should avoid that food. If there is doubt, an oral challenge test of the food should be performed under the supervision of a doctor.

What is a Food Allergy?

A food allergy occurs when the body’s immune system sees a certain food as harmful and reacts by causing symptoms. This is an allergic reaction. Foods that cause allergic reactions are allergens.

Allergic Reaction to Foods Header


Two Categories of Food Allergies


Immunoglobulin E (IgE) mediated. Symptoms result from the body’s immune system making antibodies called Immunoglobulin E (IgE) antibodies. These IgE antibodies react with a certain food.
Non-IgE mediated. Other parts of the body’s immune system react to a certain food. This reaction causes symptoms, but does not involve an IgE antibody. Someone can have both IgE mediated and non-IgE mediated food allergies.
IgE Mediated Food Allergies

The IgE mediated food allergies most common in infants and children are eggs, milk, peanuts, tree nuts, soy and wheat. The allergic reaction can involve the skin, mouth, eyes, lungs, heart, gut and brain. Some of the symptoms can include:

Skin rash, itching, hives
Swelling of the lips, tongue or throat
Shortness of breath, trouble breathing, wheezing
Stomach pain, vomiting, diarrhea
Feeling like something awful is about to happen
Sometimes allergy symptoms are mild. Other times they can be severe. Take all allergic symptoms seriously. Mild and severe symptoms can lead to a serious allergic reaction called anaphylaxis (anna-fih-LACK-sis). This reaction usually involves more than one part of the body and can get worse fast. Anaphylaxis must receive treatment right away because it can cause death.

Treat anaphylaxis with epinephrine. This medicine is safe and comes in an easy-to-use device called an auto-injector. You can’t rely on antihistamines to treat anaphylaxis. The symptoms of an anaphylactic reaction occur shortly after contact with an allergen. In some individuals, there may be a delay of two to three hours before symptoms first appear.


Cross-Reactivity and Oral Allergy Syndrome


Having an IgE mediated allergy to one food can mean your child is allergic to similar foods. For example, if your child is allergic to shrimp, he or she may be allergic to other types of shellfish, such as crab or crayfish. Or if your child is allergic to cow’s milk, he or she may also be allergic to goat’s and sheep’s milk. The reaction between different foods is called cross-reactivity. This happens when proteins in one food are similar to the proteins in another food.

Cross-reactivity also can occur between latex and certain foods. For example, a child who has an allergy to latex may also have an allergy to bananas, avocados, kiwis or chestnuts.

Some people who have allergies to pollens, such as ragweed and grasses, may also be allergic to some foods. Proteins in the pollens are like the proteins in some fruits and vegetables. So, if your child is allergic to ragweed, he or she may have an allergic reaction to melons and bananas. That’s because the protein in ragweed looks like the proteins in melons and bananas. This condition is oral allergy syndrome.

Symptoms of an oral allergy syndrome include an itchy mouth, throat or tongue. Symptoms can be more severe and may include hives, shortness of breath and vomiting. Reactions usually occur only when someone eats raw food. In rare cases, reactions can be life-threatening and need epinephrine.


Non-IgE Mediated Food Allergies


Most symptoms of non-IgE mediated food allergies involve the digestive tract. Symptoms may be vomiting and diarrhea. The symptoms can take longer to develop and may last longer than IgE mediated allergy symptoms. Sometimes, a reaction to a food allergen occurs up 3 days after eating the food allergen.

When an allergic reaction occurs with this type of allergy, epinephrine is usually not needed. In general, the best way to treat these allergies is to stay away from the food that causes the reaction. Below are examples of conditions related to non-IgE mediated food allergies.

Not all children who react to a certain food have an allergy. They may have food intolerance. Examples are lactose intolerance, gluten intolerance, sulfite sensitivity or dye sensitivity. Staying away from these foods is the best way to avoid a reaction. Your child’s doctor may suggest other steps to prevent a reaction. If your child has any food allergy symptoms, see your child’s doctor or allergist. Only a doctor can properly diagnose whether your child has an IgE- or non-IgE food allergy. Both can be present in some children.


Eosinophilic Esophagitis (EoE)


Eosinophilic (ee-uh-sin-uh-fil-ik) esophagitis is an inflamed esophagus. The esophagus is a tube from the throat to the stomach. An allergy to a food can cause this condition.

With EoE, swallowing food can be hard and painful. Symptoms in infants and toddlers are irritability, problems with eating and poor weight gain. Older children may have reflux, vomiting, stomach pain, chest pain and a feeling like food is “stuck” in their throat. The symptoms can occur days or even weeks after eating a food allergen.

EoE is treated by special diets that remove the foods that are causing the condition. Medication may also be used to reduce inflammation.


Food Protein-Induced Enterocolitis Syndrome (FPIES)


FPIES is another type of food allergy. It most often affects young infants. Symptoms usually don’t appear for two or more hours. Symptoms include vomiting, which starts about 2 hours or later after eating the food causing the condition. This condition can also cause diarrhea and failure to gain weight or height. Once the infant stops eating the food causing the allergy, the symptoms go away. Rarely, severe vomiting and diarrhea can occur which can lead to dehydration and even shock. Shock occurs when the body is not getting enough blood flow. Emergency treatment for severe symptoms must occur right away at a hospital. The foods most likely to cause a reaction are dairy, soy, rice, oat, barley, green beans, peas, sweet potatoes, squash and poultry.


Allergic Proctocolitis


Allergic proctocolitis is an allergy to formula or breast milk. This condition inflames the lower part of the intestine. It affects infants in their first year of life and usually ends by age 1 year.

The symptoms include blood-streaked, watery and mucus-filled stools. Infants may also develop green stools, diarrhea, vomiting, anemia (low blood count) and fussiness. When properly diagnosed, symptoms resolve once the offending food(s) are removed from the diet.
