    SPRITE IS MY FAVORITE SODAPOP. I STARTED DRINKING IT AFTER READING IT WAS THE ONLY DRINK SCIENTIFICALLY PROVEN TO HELP WITH HANGOVERS AND I DO THINK IT WORKS PRETTY WELL.

    I DON’T DRINK SODAS OFTEN BUT WHEN I DO IT’S A DANG SPRITE BROTHER

      I DO NOT BELIEVE THIS STUDY IS GIVING YOU HELPFUL INFORMATION BROTHER

      SPRITE MIGHT WORK BETTER THAN OTHER SODAS BECAUSE YOU’RE NOT ADDING CAFFEINE TO THE MIX, BUT LESS BAD IS NOT THE SAME THING AS GOOD. CAFFEINE IS A DIURETIC AND CAN EXACERBATE BOTH DEHYDRATION AND HEADACHES, HOWEVER HANGOVER SYMPTOMS ARE ALSO CAUSED BY HIGH BLOOD SUGAR FROM THE BREAKDOWN OF ALCOHOL BY YOUR BODY

      THIS STUDY IS AS SUSPECT AS SPRITES MARKETING STRATEGY OF SHOWING ATHLETES DRINKING SPRITE TO IMPLY IT IS A SPORTS DRINK WITHOUT EVER CLAIMING IT DIRECTLY, AN EFFECTIVE MARKETING CAMPAIGN THAT WAS PROVEN TO HAVE SPREAD THIS MISCONCEPTION TO THE PUBLIC

      THE BEST CURES FOR HANGOVERS ARE WATER, ELECTROLYTES, PROTEINS, AND PAINKILLERS/ANTIINFLAMMATORIES

      IN OTHER WORDS

      DRINK WATER EAT SOME FUCKIN VEGETABLES AND EGGS AND POP A TYLENOL

      UNLESS ITS SPRITE ZERO

      I GUESS THAT’S FINE IDK
