Australian scientists have found that eating pears before consuming alcohol can dramatically reduce the symptoms of hangovers . Also drinking 200ml of pear juice prevents the effects of hangovers, and lower the levels of alcohol in people’s blood.

The researchers have so far only tested the Asian or Korean pear, commonly used as a hangover cure in the Far East, but plan to widen the test to discover if the same results can be achieved using the Western pear.

I don’t know about ya’ll but I’m on my way to the produce section right now to rack up on some pears lol.
