Fasting After Binge Drinking

In my experience fasting after a night of drinking is an easy and positive experience. Once I wake up I have hunger pains that regularly occur with a hangover. The other discomfort such as being tired and woozy to my stomach make it fairly easy to bypass eating. I do drink a lot of water though.

Intermittent Fasting Hangovers

Your liver is detoxing your body during a hangover. The liver does a lot of work. Every time a person drinks the body encounters inflammation fatty deposits in the liver. Fasting is great for the liver. It depletes the stored sugar (glycogen) in the liver. Fasting gets rid of liver enzymes during inflammation. Fasting stimulates autophagy with is cells repairing themselves.

Exercise is not necessary and mostly not pleasant during a hangover but sweating out alcohol will help speed up the benefits of fasting.

The body burns off the sugar and can begin burning the fat in a fatty liver during a fast. This speeds along the elimination of a hangover.

A fast can be a positive decision for someone regretting their actions or feeling guilt for over drinking the night before. It is a healthy process and the complete opposite of putting something harmful in the body. The elated feeling during a fast and the ultimate weight loss is a reward to someone who was hungover.
