Inspired by recent events and holidays, here’s a list of traditional Japanese remedies that I have learned about from my parents and my own experience. These are not a safe proof way, but mere suggestions.

• ume (Japanese plum) and risotto

  tiny bit of the ume and risotto are said to do the trick. This has been passed down in my family, as well as the rest of the Japanese community.

• water to keep hydrated

  dehydration is one of the consequences of drinking too much so it is important to rehydrate your body.

Howstuffworks had interesting remedies as well.

It’s easy to get carried away, but one of the tall tail signs of too much drinking is a hangover. If you’ve never had one, you never want one. If you’ve had one, you never want one.

The best remedy for a hangover is to drink in moderation the night before. Social drinking is much more fulfilling then when you drink too much.
