Sugar, Alcohol, and Your Liver: Why Hangovers Feel Worse

Link Between Sugar and Hangovers

Sugar plays a significant role in hangovers, often making symptoms worse. Many alcoholic drinks, such as cocktails and flavored liquors, contain high amounts of sugar, which can lead to blood sugar spikes followed by crashes. This fluctuation can contribute to headaches, fatigue, and nausea—common hangover symptoms.

Additionally, excessive sugar intake can increase dehydration, as both alcohol and sugar pull water from the body, leading to dizziness and weakness. The liver, responsible for processing both alcohol and sugar, also becomes overburdened, prolonging hangover recovery.

To reduce hangover severity, opt for lower-sugar alcoholic beverages, stay hydrated, and consider using hangover patches with essential vitamins and electrolytes to support recovery.
