Can herbs cure a hangover?

Hangover cures range from mystical concoctions to massive doses of vitamin B and water. Although the only sure way to prevent a hangover is to drink less, there have been recent studies that suggest herbal supplementation may lessen the affects the morning after. A study done by Jeju University (from the Journal of Food Science, 2009) on the affects the asparagus has on the liver shows that taking 1000-2000mg of asparagus officinalis will help activate specific enzymes that help metabolize alcohol in the liver which will in turn prevent hangover symptoms. Hrrm…. I’m not sure I would put all my eggs in that basket. I believe in eating naturally, consuming large amounts of fruits and vegetables, drinking plenty of fluids and staying active regularly will always show the best results, but if you choose to pound Jaeger until the wee hours, your body is going to certainly tell you the next day how it feels about you polluting it.
