Not feeling so hot today? Kind of wishing it wasn't frowned upon to catch a few winks under your desk or curled up in the stall of the men's room? Vowing to never again consume the amount of alcohol you did over the past three days, so help you god? CNBC knows it's not possible for you to lay off the sauce for more than 12 hours but if you're willing to get real for 1 sec, would like to help. On Worldwide Exchange this morning guest Tina Hedges recommended "prevention" as the best cure for a hangover, which comes in the form of a drink she suggests downing before alcohol called "Mercy," marketed and sold by her firm. Mercy apparently works its magic through "a propriety blend of amino acids, vitamins and minerals" and is available online. If that doesn't sound like something you'd be interested, CNBC's John Carney, who anchor Nicole Lapin billed as "our resident expert of sorts" when it comes to hangovers, offered his his 5-Step Cure, which are as follows:
1. Remember hangovers are physical
2. Sleep in
3. Drink coffee
4. Eat a bacon & egg sandwich
5. Drink a Bloody Mary
Carney stressed that while does not have a license to practice medicine, has tested out the 5-Step Program himself, after picking various tips in the field (#4 came from the Brits he met while studying at Oxford) and 100% vouches for their efficacy.
