We toast success, health and a happy new year with a glass of our favourite drink. But for most of us, the toast often doesn&#8217;t end there. <strong>Unfortunately, the cheerful mood and partying the night away will take its toll in the morning.<\/strong> Light-headedness in the morning, headaches and unbelievable thirst are among the most common symptoms. For the rest of the day, people often look for a way to get rid of the hangover as quickly as possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_is_a_hangover_and_how_does_it_arise\"><\/span>What is a hangover, and how does it arise?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s quite possible to wake up with a hangover after a boozy party. <strong>According to research, around 78% of people who have enjoyed a little more alcohol than is healthy the night before have experienced its symptoms.<\/strong> A number of factors are involved in its onset. The most common symptoms include fatigue, headaches, upset stomach and sometimes slight blackouts, which must then be monitored by other party-goers. What&#8217;s behind it, and why do you get hangover? <span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">[1]<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Dehydration and electrolyte imbalance<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Alcohol has the ability to reduce the level of antidiuretic hormone (ADH). This in turn causes the kidneys to excrete more water,<strong> leading to the need to visit the toilet more often<\/strong>. For example, if you drink a 250ml cocktail with 50g of alcohol, you can expect your body to excrete around 600-1000ml of urine. If you don&#8217;t top up your alcoholic drinks with a non-alcoholic drink now and then, dehydration is unlikely to pass you by. In addition to dry mouth and thirst, the symptoms include dark urine (dark yellow to orange in colour) and impaired brain function, for example in the form of poorer concentration. <span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">[2]<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>With more frequent visits to the toilet, you also lose more important electrolytes such as sodium, <a href=\"https:\/\/gymbeam.com\/magnesium\" class=\"ek-link\">magnesium<\/a>, potassium, or calcium.<\/strong> These are involved in maintaining optimal hydration, but also in the proper function of muscles, nerves, heart, and brain. For this reason, disrupting their balance often has a negative effect on how you feel the day after a party. <span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">[3]<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>If you&#8217;re wondering what dehydration can cause, you&#8217;ll find everything you need to know in our article <a class=\"ek-link\" href=\"https:\/\/gymbeam.com\/blog\/how-insufficient-water-intake-affects-your-health\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\"><strong>How an Insufficient Water Intake Affects Your Health?<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1124\" height=\"750\" src=\"https:\/\/gymbeam.cz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/iStock-1020553936-1124x750.jpg\" alt=\"What is a hangover?\" class=\"wp-image-329267\" style=\"width:843px;height:563px\" title=\"What is a hangover?\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gymbeam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/iStock-1020553936-1124x750.jpg 1124w, https:\/\/gymbeam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/iStock-1020553936-400x267.jpg 400w, https:\/\/gymbeam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/iStock-1020553936-1536x1025.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/gymbeam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/iStock-1020553936-2048x1367.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1124px) 100vw, 1124px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Breaking down alcohol<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The elimination of alcohol (ethanol) from the body is mainly taken care of by our liver. Its cells produce an enzyme called alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH). <strong>This triggers the conversion of ethanol into acetaldehyde, which has toxic effects on the body.<\/strong> <span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">[4]<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Acetaldehyde can thus be identified as the main culprit in headaches, nausea and other symptoms of hangovers.<\/strong> Fortunately, we are equipped with another enzyme &#8211; acetaldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH), which takes care of its breakdown into inactive acetic acid. <span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">[4]<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>However, some people have a reduced ability to produce the enzymes ADH and ALDH due to a genetic variation. <strong>Acetaldehyde is thus typically less easily broken down, which can result in lower overall alcohol tolerance.<\/strong> Perhaps you have a friend who is considerably more cheerful after one drink than the rest of the group. There are even racial differences in alcohol breakdown. Just for the record, about 50% of the population living in the East Asian region has impaired or reduced ALDH production. <span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">[5]<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Drinking alcohol on an empty stomach<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You&#8217;ve probably also heard the old adage from someone:<em> &#8220;Eat well before you drink.&#8221;<\/em> If you took their advice, you can thank them for a more pleasant morning the next day. Drinking on an empty stomach is not a good idea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Alcohol is absorbed into the bloodstream more quickly,<\/strong> which can result in abdominal pain, nausea and generally more severe hangover symptoms. It&#8217;s not a bad idea to eat dinner before a planned party, or to snack on nibbles and other goodies that are on hand during the evening. <span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">[6]<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1124\" height=\"748\" src=\"https:\/\/gymbeam.cz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/iStock-1216786503-e1640421758351-1124x748.jpg\" alt=\"What causes a hangover?\" class=\"wp-image-329281\" style=\"width:843px;height:561px\" title=\"What causes a hangover?\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gymbeam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/iStock-1216786503-e1640421758351-1124x748.jpg 1124w, https:\/\/gymbeam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/iStock-1216786503-e1640421758351-400x266.jpg 400w, https:\/\/gymbeam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/iStock-1216786503-e1640421758351-768x511.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gymbeam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/iStock-1216786503-e1640421758351.jpg 1163w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1124px) 100vw, 1124px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. Deceitful congeners<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Congeners are substances that give some alcoholic beverages their typical taste and aroma. Unfortunately, they have similar toxic effects on the body as ethanol. <strong>For this reason, they are often associated with worse hangovers.<\/strong> Thus, typically more severe headaches, nausea, or fatigue. If you&#8217;ve ever overdone it with rum, brandy, whiskey or cognac, you may know what we&#8217;re talking about. These are the drinks that have the highest levels of dangerous congeners. <span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">[6-7]<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5. Impaired sleep quality<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Getting a good sleep is probably the last thing you expect after a night out. Even if you do manage to get the recommended 7-9 hours of sleep, the quality of it probably won&#8217;t be ideal. <strong>Alcohol can make it difficult to get the deep sleep you need.<\/strong> As a result, you&#8217;re unlikely to feel fully rested when you wake up, and fatigue and sleepiness will keep you company for the rest of the day. <span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">[8]<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Poor quality sleep can also throw off your hormone levels.<\/strong> It can increase ghrelin (the hunger hormone) and decrease leptin (the satiety hormone). This is perhaps why many people get really hungry the day after a party. Their growling stomach then tries to satisfy itself with typically high-calorie foods that are high in fat and salt. In this case, eggs and bacon are far more appealing than porridge with fruit. <span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">[9]<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>If you often have trouble sleeping, read our article <a class=\"ek-link\" href=\"https:\/\/gymbeam.com\/blog\/how-to-fall-asleep-quickly-try-these-simple-tips-for-a-better-sleep\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\"><strong>How to Fall Asleep Quickly?

Negative effect on the immune system<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Alcohol can also mess with your immune system. In fact, a number of studies have revealed that people with hangovers often have elevated levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines. These substances typically increase in the body when fighting an infection. <strong>They typically cause muscle and head pain, fatigue, nausea, and irritability.<\/strong> <span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">[10-12]<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>As the amount of ethanol (alcohol) in the body increases, the levels of the aforementioned cytokines typically increase as well. When alcohol is broken down in the body, harmful free radicals are also produced, which can cause oxidative stress. This is also often associated with hangover symptoms. <span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">[10-12]<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Wondering how to boost your immunity?

You will then have to wait about <strong>20-24 hours<\/strong> for the hangover to fully subside. However, it all depends on many factors such as the type and amount of alcohol consumed, genetic makeup, metabolic rate, as well as body weight and height.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>However, if you go from party to party, as is typical between Christmas and New Year&#8217;s Eve, it may take a little longer to get completely back to normal.

You can reduce the severity of your hangover during the evening by choosing drinks with lower congener levels<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you want to avoid a hangover altogether, ideally don&#8217;t drink, or keep the number of drinks you have to a minimum. When choosing a particular drink, you <strong>should reach for one with a lower congener content.<\/strong> Stay with one type of drink throughout the evening. Also, try not to overdo it with champagne or prosecco. These popular drinks contain bubbles that can speed up the absorption of alcohol. <span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">[13]<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Drinks with a higher congener content usually mean a heavier hangover<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><thead><tr><th><p style=\"text-align: center;\">Drinks with a lower congener content<\/p><\/th><th><p style=\"text-align: center;\">Drinks with a higher congener content<\/p><\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>vodka, gin, light rum, white wine, light beer, other clear spirits<\/td><td>bourbon, brandy, whisky, cognac, dark rum, red wine<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Try to <strong>dilute the alcohol as much as possible and substitute it with water,<\/strong> juice or another non-alcoholic drink.

Try to get enough sleep<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Leaving a great party a little early can be a big sacrifice for some, but it&#8217;s often worth it. <strong>If you want to function normally the next day, you should get a good night&#8217;s sleep.<\/strong> For at least seven hours. Alcohol may not result in the same quality of sleep, but it&#8217;s still better than no sleep at all or only a few hours. If you can, have a nap during the day.
