Book excerpt: “Bishop-Stall insists that hangovers… [are] worthy of a cure. After years of dogged research around the globe, he finds one — just in time for the holidays.” —Washington Post “[An] irreverent, well-oiled memoir…Bishop-Stall packs his book with humorous and enlightening asides about alcohol.” —The Wall Street Journal One intrepid reporter's quest to learn everything there is to know about hangovers, trying all of the cures he can find and explaining how (and if) they work, all so rest of us don't have to. We've all been there. One minute you're fast asleep, and in the next you're tumbling from dreams of deserts and demons, into semi-consciousness, mouth full of sand, head throbbing. You're hungover. Courageous journalist Shaughnessy Bishop-Stall has gone to the front lines of humanity's age-old fight against hangovers to settle once and for all the best way to get rid of the aftereffects of a night of indulgence (short of not drinking in the first place). Hangovers have plagued human beings for about as long as civilization has existed (and arguably longer), so there has been plenty of time for cures to be concocted. But even in 2018, little is actually known about hangovers, and less still about how to cure them. Cutting through the rumor and the myth, Hungover explores everything from polar bear swims, to saline IV drips, to the age-old hair of the dog, to let us all know which ones actually work. And along the way, Bishop-Stall regales readers with stories from humanity's long and fraught relationship with booze, and shares the advice of everyone from Kingsley Amis to a man in a pub.

Book excerpt: The seeds and fruits (or their parts) of Iberoamerican crops have high nutritional and functional properties which could be utilized in a wide range of foods. The crops included in this book are amaranth (Amaranthus spp.), quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa), kañiwa (Chenopodium pallidicaule), chia (Salvia hispanica L.), Andean maize (Zea mays L.), moringa (Moringa oleifera), yvapuru (Plinia peruviana), kurugua (Sicana odorifera), sacha inchi (Plukenetia huayllabambana), camu camu (Myrciaria dubia), mango (Mangifera indica), tarwi (Lupinus mutabilis), peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) and taro (Colocasia esculenta), all of them still underutilized. Their cultivation is low; nevertheless, in recent years, the worldwide demand for some of them has increased immensely, resulting in an increase in their production. The ancient Iberoamerican crops have been widely recognized for their nutritional value by food scientists and food producers because they contain high-quality proteins and large quantities of micronutrients such as minerals, vitamins and bioactive compounds. In addition, they are gluten-free, which makes them suitable for people suffering from various gluten intolerances. This book summarizes the large amount of investigations in this field in the last year and provides knowledge within all the relevant areas of food science. The editors hope that this book will contribute to an increased use of these products in human nutrition by consumers worldwide.

Download or read book The Prohibition Hangover written by Garrett Peck and published by Rutgers University Press. This book was released on 2009-08-03 with total page 327 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spirits are all the rage today. Two-thirds of Americans drink, whether they enjoy higher priced call brands or more moderately priced favorites. From fine dining and piano bars to baseball games and backyard barbeques, drinks are part of every social occasion. In The Prohibition Hangover, Garrett Peck explores the often-contradictory social history of alcohol in America, from the end of Prohibition in 1933 to the twenty-first century. For Peck, Repeal left American society wondering whether alcohol was a consumer product or a controlled substance, an accepted staple of social culture or a danger to society. Today the legal drinking age, binge drinking, the neoprohibitionist movement led by Mothers Against Drunk Driving, the 2005 Supreme Court decision in Granholm v. Heald that rejected discriminatory curbs on wine sales, the health benefits of red wine, advertising, and other issues remain highly contested. Based on primary research, including hundreds of interviews with those on all sidesùclergy, bar and restaurant owners, public health advocates, citizen crusaders, industry representatives, and moreùas well as secondary sources, The Prohibition Hangover provides a panoramic assessment of alcohol in American culture. Traveling through the California wine country, the beer barrel backroads of New England and Pennsylvania, and the blue hills of Kentucky's bourbon trail, Peck places the concerns surrounding alcohol use within the broader context of American history, religious traditions, and governance. Society is constantly evolving, and so are our drinking habits. Cutting through the froth and discarding the maraschino cherries, The Prohibition Hangover examines the modern American temperament toward drink amid the $189-billion-dollar-a-year industry that defines itself by the production, distribution, marketing, and consumption of alcoholic beverages.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We've been suffering hangovers for as long as anyone can remember - anyone who was sober last night, that is, not anyone who's currently sipping Lucozade in a darkened room with a basin by their side. They can't even remember how they got home. So, if we've known about hangovers for so long, how come we've never figured out how to put a stop to them? Well, you might be surprised to hear that we have. A great deal of research has gone into the mystery of the hangover. People are out there every night researching themselves legless in bars, pubs and clubs all over the country. They try different combinations of drinks; wine before beer then whisky, beer before wine then whisky, vodka before beer and then wine before whisky; drinking standing up, drinking sitting down, eating before the drinking, eating during the drinking, eating after the drinking; wine before sitting down, vodka during the whisky and standing up eating in the beer (the researcher's notes get a bit confused here). The point is, we know what causes hangovers - the Devil. He's trying to suck out your soul through your toilet and starts with everything you've had to eat in the last three days. pituitary gland causing vasopressin inhibition, dehydration and a toxic accumulation of acetaldehyde when the liver's production of glutathione is exhausted. The scientists have all the answers and their ultimate solution to the hangover problem is... don't drink. But that's just crazy talk, so maybe they're not so clever after all. There are plenty of hangover 'cures' - from Prairie Oysters and Bloody Marys to burnt toast, fried breakfasts and bananas - but only a few of them do any good at all and some of them can actually to more harm than good... banging yourself on the head with a dustbin lid, for example, or turning up for work. Different things, obviously, will work better or worse for different people; the trick is knowing what works best for you and Rough As A Badger's Arse gives a fair and unbiased assessment of all of the best hangover cures to guide you through the tough choices. the world about the perils of the demon drink, the odd drinking quote or ditty, lots of hard facts to help you think your head straight and plenty of soft paper if your problem is mainly at the other end. As good a pick-me-up as a JCB or a bucketful of Red Bull, Rough As A Badger's Arse will have you ready to face your next session before you can say, 'Mine's a Perrier.' So, if that randy wild gorilla broke into your room last night while you were unconscious - you know, the one that scattered your clothes around, wrecked your CD player, stole all your money, messed up your bed, planted a traffic cone on your head, left your front door open and emptied an ash tray into your mouth - you really need this book!

Download or read book Asperger Syndrome and Alcohol written by Matthew Tinsley and published by Jessica Kingsley Publishers. This book was released on 2008-06-15 with total page 147 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Asperger Syndrome and Alcohol exposes the unexplored problem of people with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASDs) using alcohol as a coping mechanism to deal with everyday life. Alcohol can relieve the anxiety of social situations and make those with ASDs feel as though they can fit in. Ultimately, however, reliance on alcohol can lead the user down a path of self-destruction and exacerbate existing problems. Utilising their professional and personal experience, the authors provide an overview of ASDs and of alcohol abuse, and explore current knowledge about where the two overlap. Tinsley explores his own personal history as someone with an ASD who has experienced and beaten alcohol addiction. He discusses how the impact of his diagnosis and his understanding of the condition played a huge part in his recovery, and how by viewing his life through the prism of autism, his confusion has been replaced by a greater understanding of himself and the world around him. This inspiring book on an under-researched area will be of interest to professionals working with people with ASDs, as well as individuals with ASDs who may be dealing with alcohol or substance misuse, and their families.
