When meeting people, you will find that each has
his or her own individual quirks. Some like to travel in flip flops; others
only like to sit in the front passenger seat otherwise they get very car sick;
there are also those who only like to eat white chocolate otherwise they won’t
eat chocolate at all. Then you’ll meet those who like whisky over wine, or
vodka over beer. However, those who belong in the latter examples have one
thing in common: they all have a hangover cure of choice.
After a night of fun, it can be a bit hellish to
wake up to bright sunshine due to what we call a hangover. This can mean
migraines, nausea, dizziness, fatigue or a general feeling of crappiness. Queue
the best natural hangover cure ever (or so they say): The Magic Tonic.
The Magic Tonic
2 tablespoons of Lemon Juice
½ tablespoon of finely ground coffee (must be
organic)
Mix these two together until they are well
incorporated. It should resemble a puree. If the mixture is too thick, add a
touch more lemon juice.
What makes it so effective?
Lemon juice is similar in structure to the body’s
natural digestive juices, meaning it will go down easily and be processed
relatively easily. It also acts as a powerful liver cleanser for those who
drink pretty heavily, filtering out toxins and promoting better nutrient
absorption. Coffee on the other hand, contains caffeine. That’s pretty
self-explanatory, right? We all love caffeine; it makes us feel human. But what
you probably don’t know is that coffee is abundant in antioxidants, which help
repair damage caused by free radicals.
Ramp it up further
Need something stronger? You can take it up a notch
if you so choose. Here’s the recipe for the Pre-Magic Tonic
Pre Magic Tonic
12-16 ounces of filtered water
1 teaspoon of sea salt
Dissolve the sea salt into the water and drink this
before the Magic Tonic. This solution stimulates the adrenal glands, waking you
up and supplying you with more energy.
