A Great New Hangover Cure For The Holiday Season

Around this time of year, we go to a lot of holiday gatherings.....and indulge in some drinks.  Let’s take a look at a great new hangover cure for after a hard night of partying!

There was a recent survey that found that the average adult will spend three days hungover in December.  Ugggh, I can already feel the headache and achiness in my body now!  But sometimes it’s worth it when someone’s got that delicious spiked eggnog or holiday specialty cocktail.  You just want to indulge and enjoy!  Well, when you do that, unfortunately sometimes the tradeoff is a rough next morning.

You might have your hangover cure.  I tend to wake up, take two Tylenol, pound some Gatorade, and eat a piece of buttered toast.  Does it help?  I don’t know, but we all have our go-tos.

Here’s another option that you could add to your arsenal of weapons to battle hangovers. A doctor and TV personality in England, Dr. Zoe Williams, has come up with a hangover sandwich.

It sounds pretty tasty and if it helps with that terrible hangover, that’s a nice bonus!

First, start with the bread.  Take a piece of whole grain and a piece of white.  That’s a terrific fiber and protein mix.  What goes inside?  Some eggs (any style), bacon or a veggie alternative, and avocado.

Now, not only does this taste good, but there’s science behind why it could help with your hangover.

Eggs have a tone of B12 and cysteine which can help to detoxify your liver.  The avocado is loaded with potassium to balance electrolytes and the bacon can help to replenish lost salts.

The doctor also suggests washing it down with some water or even black tea for the best results.

So there you go.  Enjoy a night out with friends, coworkers, or family and if you wind up having a few too many drinks, you have a new hangover cure to try!

Scott Weiland was a force to be reckoned with on recordings and stage. It’s hard to believe that Scott Weiland Is Gone 9 Years  –  Weiland’s 5 best songs is what we’re going to take a look at.  He made some incredible music with multiple bands.  Even his solo music was awesome! 

Gone far too soon, Weiland passed away on December 3^rd, 2015.   Throughout his career, he was known for his flamboyant and outrageous on-stage persona.  His voice sounded different on almost every song and he was one of the best frontmen of a band.  He knew how to get the crowd going!  His voice was smooth and raspy all at once and he came up with brilliant melodies and very interesting lyrics.

From the get-go, you can hear his talent on the debut release from Stone Temple Pilots, “Core”.  It was an amazing 1^st album and really showcased Scott’s vocal abilities.  Plus, his ability to be entertaining and a little off the wall!

Later, with Velvet Revolver, he made some great music too.  Their albums were tight and focused and Weiland had a more mature sound.  His solo albums were an eclectic mix of sounds that worked really well too. Before we take a look at Weiland’s 5 best songs, check this audio out below. This is our own Terrie Carr in what's believed to be the last recorded interview with Weiland before he passed.

This one is such a haunting an powerful track, really showcasing Weiland's ability. The lyrics are pretty interesting and the band works together well by playing off each other.

This piano startup gives you an odd feel and the song in general as an eerie yet melodic aspect to it.  It first appeared on the Great Expectations Soundtrack and then later on Weiland's debut album 12 Bar Blues. The song features Sheryl Crow on accordion.  It's really unique and different.

An epic song that has such a cool vibe to it.  It gives me the feel of something the Stones would have tried in an experimental phase.  But it's definitely different and really cool.

This one is one of my favorite STP songs.  It just hits home so well.  Weiland sings in a higher register.  And it works great.  So interesting that he was capable of so much!

A rockin one from solo Scott!  It's got a huge chorus.  Very infectious and while it's poppy in sound, it has an underlying sadness to it.  Really cool tune.
