The weekend is over, it’s only Monday and I am already looking forward to next Friday so that I can start drinking like a beast again. If you are someone like me, who drinks like a fish, you may need some tips to make sure you don’t fall flat on your face halfway through the night. To maintain your legacy of standing tall and steady through the night, here are a few things to keep in mind.
Yeast to be a beast: Here’s a scientific trick. Consume one teaspoon of active yeast for every drink you are gonna down. It contains ADH, an enzyme that attacks alcohol in the stomach before it gets your bed stream. It may taste bad, but it will save your ass.
Eat well: This is easy since we love food so much. I understand that most impromptu parties serve barely any food, but call for some snacks for yourself. Lots and lots of protein and fats will help you immensely since they take longer to digest.
Choose smart: Yes, all of you have your own likings when it comes to alcohol, but you need to put a little more thought into it if you are going to drink the whole bar. Darker liquors and red wine come with congeners that can give you headaches, so maybe avoid them for just one night.
Go low on sugar: Avoid drinking super sugary drinks along with liquor. Higher blood sugar levels lead to tiredness and lethargy which will make you withdraw from the party a lot sooner than you should.
Don’t shy away from supplements: Drinking lots of water can save you from crashing. But then you’re going to have to pee a lot. Peeing a lot doesn’t mean losing water. You lose nutrients like Vitamin B. This may cause a dramatic decrease in your drinking power and social skills. Carry a pouch of Vitamin supplement or an Electral sachet with you whenever you decide to go all in.
