London, Dec 30 (IANS) It is party time and actress Gwyneth Paltrow took to her blog to dole out hangover cures to help her friends get up in the New Year without a headache.

In the newsletter on her blog Goop.com, the actress has listed a series of classic and modern techniques to overcome a night of heavy drinking, stating: ‘Here is our best to help you prepare for the day after.’

The newsletter features Dr. Frank Lipman’s explanation of what exactly causes a hangover and remedies from around the world, reports femalefirst.co.uk.

‘We went to Boots, one of the main pharmacies here in London, and the pharmacist recommended Alka Seltzer, which is Aspirin-based, and Resolve, which is Paracetamol-based (if you have asthma, stick with Resolve) to settle your stomach and get rid of that headache. He also recommended Milk Thistle capsules (also available as drops), which you should take before drinking to prepare your liver for a heavy night,’ Paltrow, 39, added.
