Many people enjoy having a few drinks, and some choose to drink strong tea to sober up after getting drunk. Da Siping, director of the outpatient department at Xinqiao Hospital of the Third Military Medical University, suggests that after drinking, one can eat bananas in different ways according to different reactions of intoxication. It is best to drink less tea to avoid adverse effects on health.
Because alcohol directly damages the gastric mucosa after entering the digestive tract, leading to gastritis and duodenal ulcers, while bananas have the effects of clearing heat, lubricating the intestines, and detoxifying. They can alleviate the discomfort caused by excessive drinking. If convenient, you can eat bananas using the following methods according to different symptoms after drinking.
For detoxification and quenching thirst: 3 to 5 fresh bananas after drinking;
For post-drank vexation and heat: Mash bananas, mix with warm water, add sugar, and take;
For post-drank headache: 50 grams of banana root, decocted in water and taken as tea;
For post-drank stomach heat and vexation: 60 grams of banana peel cut into strips, decocted in water, add appropriate amount of sugar and drink.
In addition, making a fruit salad with water-rich fruits such as pears, oranges, apples, watermelons, and bananas can effectively dilute the concentration of alcohol in the blood and accelerate the excretion of alcohol.
