The solution?

有解決辦法嗎？

Stop drinking, until next week when it happens all over again.

到下個星期都不喝了，但到下星期所有事情又會再重新來過。

It's inevitable, and you know it.

你知道你逃不掉的。

And while there are many pills and myths that claim to do the job, here are the actual scientifically proven tips to help handle your hangover.

雖然有很多藥物和偏方聲稱可以解決問題，但我們現在要提供的是有科學證明、能幫助你處理宿醉的方法。

Before you start drinking, eat fatty foods and carbs.

在你開始喝酒之前，吃一些高脂肪的食物和澱粉。

Sure you wanna look slim on your night out, but the fact is, fatty foods slow down the absorption of alcohol into your body and help lessen stomach irritation, while carbs prevent low blood sugar and ease nausea, which means ix-nay on the vomit-ey.

我知道你想要在你出去約會的夜晚看起來苗條些，但事實上，油膩的食物能減緩身體吸收酒精的速度，並且幫助減少胃部不適。而澱粉預防低血醣和減輕噁心感，也就是能讓你「避免嘔吐」。

This also gives your body more time to process the harmful by-products of alcohol, which can be explained in a previous video, here.

這也給你身體更多時間去處理有害的酒精副產品，這可以在前面的影片中得到解釋。

One of the main reasons for your hangover.

這是你宿醉的主要原因之一。

Next, Water.

接著，水。

Water is your best friend before, during, and after drinking.

在喝酒之前、喝酒時以及之後，水是你最好的朋友。

Alcohol is a diuretic, which means you'll be peeing out more fluid than your taking in.

酒精是利尿劑，意思相較於你喝進去的，你排出的水會更多。

And with less water in your body, your other organs start to steal it from the brain, causing it to literally shrink, which causes headaches.

由於體內水分較少，其他的器官開始從大腦偷取水分，使它縮水並引起頭痛。

Ouch!

噢！

So while you're drinking, have another drink of water.

所以當你在喝酒的時候，另外拿杯水吧！

And do yourself a favour by choosing lighter coloured liquors.

再幫自己個忙，選顏色較淡的酒。

Dark drinks like red wine, bourbon, brandy, and whisky contain higher concentrations of something called "Congeners."

紅酒、波本酒、白蘭地和威士忌等深色的酒，含有更高濃度，稱為「同屬物」的東西。

These congeners act as extra toxic chemicals your body has to eliminate.

這些同屬物是毒性特強的化學物質，你的身體必須要消除它。

And while beer doesn't fit in this category, the age-old rhyme, "beer before liquor, never been sicker" does apply.

而儘管啤酒不屬於這類型，有句話說：「喝完啤酒再喝白酒，就永遠不會清醒了」，還真屬實。

Carbonation, like that in beer or soda pop, increases the rate of absorption of alcohol causing a worse hangover.

在啤酒或汽水裡面的碳酸飽和物會增加酒精的吸收速率，造成更嚴重的宿醉。

After the bar, more water.

在離開酒吧後，多喝些水。

You may be peeing all night, but it's better than your head exploding tomorrow morning.

你可能會整晚跑廁所，但總比隔天早上頭痛欲裂好多了。

Aspirin before bed is also helpful: its non-caffeinated and inhibits the release of something called 'Prostaglandin,' which has been shown to contribute to hangovers.

睡前吃阿斯匹靈也極有助益，它不含咖啡因，而且抑制會前列腺素的釋出，前列腺素已經被證明會造成宿醉。

But stay away from Acetaminophen, most commonly called "Tylenol" in North America.

但是別碰對乙酰氨基酚，也就是北美地區說的泰勒諾 (止痛藥)。

Acetaminophen is extremely harsh on your liver, and in combination with alcohol, can do some severe damage.

止痛藥對肝臟危害很大，與酒精結合後會造成嚴重的傷害。

In the morning, your breakfast can make all the difference.

你的早餐也很重要。

Eggs contain Cysteine, an amino acid, which is required in the breakdown of alcohol to acetate.

雞蛋含有胇基丙氨酸，一種能把酒精分解成醋酸鹽所需要的胺基酸。

Bananas contain potassium, which is essential for brain, muscle, and body function.

香蕉含有鉀，是腦部、肌肉和身體所需要的。

And fruit juice contains vitamins and fructose, or fruit sugar, which gives you energy and increases the rate of which your body excretes toxins.

果汁含有維他命和果糖，提供你能量並加快身體排毒的速率。

But perhaps the most important rule：Know Your Limit.

也許最重要的原則是：知道自己的酒量。

There are major differences between genders, races, and individuals when it comes to alcohol.

酒量在性別、種族和個人因素之間有很大的差異。

But by using these simple strategies in the right order, you'll be on the road to avoiding those pounding hangovers.

但若能正確使用這些簡單的策略，可以讓你避開那些猛烈的宿醉。

Until next week...

直到下個星期...

And you do it again...

再重來一遍。
