7. Easing a Hangover

Medical history is full of claims about various hangover cures, but a 2009 study suggests that asparagus may actually work. Researchers analyzed the components of asparagus shoots and their effects on both human and rat liver cells. Results showed the amino acids in asparagus stimulate enzymes in the liver, increasing the rate at which the body breaks down substances that contribute to hangover symptoms.
