Does a hangover actually COST us anything… besides our pride? Yes, according to a study in the Annals of Internal Medicine. (Wiese et al. 2000).
There’s the headache, nausea and fatigue, but the study also accounted for “decreased occupational, cognitive, or visual-spatial skill performance.” In other words, you either can’t work the next day or you go to work but don’t accomplish anything.
Hangover price tag…

Researchers concluded that hangovers cost the United States $148 billion a year, or about $2000 annually per working adult. (Considering our country’s current economic condition, we need to save every dollar we’ve got!)
Light-to-moderate drinkers take note: While hangovers are usually associated with very heavy drinkers, the study found that most of the cost is incurred by YOU!
Hangover prevention is easy
