The first foods that you allow to enter your stomach the morning after a night of merry drinking on Christmas can either cure your hangover entirely or wreck your stomach.
So you have to be careful about what you are going to eat to protect yourself against the brutal symptoms of a hangover.
“Some foods are just better at soaking alcohol that can help protect you against symptoms of a hangover such as persistent headache and uneasiness in the stomach,” says Dr. Anjali Batra, a Gurgaon-based dietician.

If you’re like me and can’t tolerate the sight, smell, and taste of bananas then go for coconut water for your dose of potassium. Since alcohol is dehydrating, potassium helps you to replenish all the electrolytes lost. Drink up because coconut water will not only cure your hangover but condition your skin and hair.
2. Eggs!

Even if you’re feeling queasy, it’s wise to whip up some eggs for breakfast because they will provide the proteins your body needs to function. For vegetarians, beans will provide the same nutritional boost.
3. Ginger.

Research has shown that alcohol inhibits the absorption of B-12 which supports your metabolism and provides energy. That’s why nuts, yogurt or oats cereal make for healthy meal options to gain missing nutrients all thanks to the drinks you had.
