Suffering with the dreaded hangover, and looking for a cure to get over it? Amino acids and minerals found in asparagus extract could help alleviate alcohol hangover and protect liver cells against toxins, shows new research.
Asparagus is used in herbal medicine for its anti-cancer effects. Chronic alcohol use causes oxidative stress on the liver as well as unpleasant symptoms such as headache and jellied limbs associated with a hangover. The study treatment with extracts of asparagus leaves and shoots lowered these cellular toxicities.
