There are many Chinese medicine recipes for hangover relief. Friends who want to relieve hangovers can try some. However, I would like to advise everyone not to take medicine casually.

Friends who want to sober up can do so by eating some hangover-relieving fruits, such as watermelon juice, grape juice, grapefruit, banana, etc.
