Answer to Question 1

Alcohol and Hangovers
A hangover actually consists of a group of ailments, usually including but not limited to headache, nausea, vomiting, sensitivity to light and sound, dry mouth, and irritability. As explained earlier, dehydration results from excessive consumption of alcohol, and it is thought to be the main factor contributing to what is referred to as a hangover. In addition, alcohol affects the stomach lining, causing considerable distention. As the depressive effects of alcohol wear off, the person's sensitivity to noise and sound are amplified. Although theories (and myths) abound about how and why hangovers occur and how to subdue their effects, the best way to avoid these unwanted side effects is to drink in moderation.

Answer to Question 2
