The main thing you're feeling with a hangover is electrolyte imbalance and dehydration. So start with fluids. So drink water and use a good quality sea salt. You might actually want to supplement with magnesium as well. ... You also obviously want to rest. Do as much as you can to get good sleep, even though the alcohol is messed up. And eat some food. Even though your stomach might feel funky after drinking, getting food will help. And just as eating fruit or honey before drinking can help, eating fruit and honey, I know it sounds crazy. I didn't believe it until I read it, but it's true. Eating fruit and honey after you've drunk can help metabolize alcohol and improve the hangover severity.
