2. SPRITE
It isn’t an urban legend, hydrating on sweet, (caffeine-free) soda may reduce the effects of a hangover.
In a 2013 study published in the journal ‘Food and Function’, Chinese researchers found that Sprite helps the body better metabolise alcohol by speeding up our ability to process aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) – believed to be the culprit for hangover symptoms.
Some bad news for the herbal tea addicts – sipping on herbal tea may slow down the ALDH process and could possibly prolong the hangover.
