In reading your article on hangover cures
(“Drunk as a skunk”, 20/27 December, p 46),
I have found an explanation for why my favourite cure works: a
banana milk shake made with a pint of milk, a banana, and some cream and honey,
sharing the breakfast table with two boiled eggs.
This solution was handed down to me (through my grandfather) from my family,
which originated in Tenerife. It is so nice to know that my “old husband’s tale”
has some scientific backing.
