So, you were out all night (and possibly all morning) partying at the club. You finally got a few hours of sleep, but when you woke up, it only took you seconds to realize: you have the worst hangover of your life.

Your head is throbbing, all the way down to your shoulder blades. Your stomach is churning. Your joints are sore. The room is spinning. You feel so horrible that you can’t even go back to bed.

So what do you do? Clearly you need some hangover remedies…

First of all, alcohol dehydrates you. All those trips to the bathroom last night were sucking water from your body, which is what is causing the aches and pains the next morning. Secondly, drinking all that alcohol means that there is a chemical called ethanol in your system, too. Ethanol is filtered by your liver, but your liver can only process so much at once. The more you drink, the more ethanol there is that DOESN’T get filtered out. Instead, it just hangs out in your blood stream, making you queasy and tired. Lastly, alcohol acts as a blood thinner – if you get a paper cut the day after a big party, it’s going to take longer to stop bleeding.

So, what does all of this mean? Are there hangover remedies that can prevent these treacherous things from happening?

What it means is: just because you have muscle aches and a throbbing headache, reaching for the trusty bottle of Advil or Tylenol is NOT the best way to feel better. In fact, this hangover remedy can be downright dangerous.

Think about it: your liver is already working overtime to filter out all of that ethanol. Painkillers also contain chemicals that can only be processed by your liver. If you give your liver too much to do, it may stop working. And a non-functioning liver? Well, that’s a very serious medical problem.

And what about the matter of alcohol thinning out your blood? Some painkillers are also blood thinners. That’s why doctors tell people to take an Aspirin if they think they’re having a heart attack. But since we’re actually talking about a hangover, keep this in mind: adding another blood thinner into your body can lower your blood pressure, leading to more dizziness and lightheadedness. It can upset your stomach even more, to the point of causing a bleed, which is a medical emergency. Hangover remedies involving pills can often be more dangerous than helpful.

So what CAN you do? That’s where we come in! NoHo is not a medication; it’s a drink that you take DURING the party. It takes those chemicals away from your blood, and it keeps you from getting dehydrated. It’s a hangover remedy that works BEFORE you drink too much!

Basically, NoHo is a hangover remedy like no other – it works by stopping you from getting hungover in the first place!
