It’s not uncommon for people to say that they’ve found a cure for hangovers. A recent survey of 2,000 adults in Britain revealed that people try everything from noodle soup, hot showers and even more alcohol to stop the hangover, South West News Service (SWNS) reports.
For one-in-five respondents, the only cure is staying home all day, in bed, with the curtains closed.
