Mildly interesting article on 18 Tricks To Teach Your Body.

What I liked, however, was the explanation about why you get dizzy from drinking too much:

“…The part of your ear responsible for balance — the cupula — floats in a fluid of the same density as blood. “As alcohol dilutes blood in the cupula, the cupula becomes less dense and rises,” says Dr. Schaffer. This confuses your brain. ”

The writer then recommends holding on to something with your hand to counter the sense of unbalance; personally, I think focussing on one part of the room with your eyes and holding focus works better.

But otherwise, the question is moot: it is not what can I do to make it better, but how long can I endure it until it is over. Like hangovers. Gatorade, anyone? lol
