> Dragonslayer- You are my hero, everything I wanted to know about hangovers! In my pursuit of finding the hangover cure I bought Nux Vomica 30-c. It hasn't done anything for me. I read in your post that the lower the number the higher the dose should I just take a ton of these pellets?
I think you meant me, not Dragonslayer, but s'ok. :-)
Taking a bunch of the pellets won't work... 30c means that the initial material (in this case, Nux vomica, also called poison nut) was diluted one drop of N.V. to 99 drops water, then one drop of this solution was diluted in 99 drops of water, so on and so forth until thirty dilutions have been reached. In other words:
One 30c pellet contains somewhere around
0.0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000001% of the original product.One 6c pellet contains about 0.000000000001% of the original product.
So as you can see, the end product in a 30c preparation contains extremely miniscule amounts of the original material, and it would take enormous numbers of those pellets to equal the strength of one 6c pellet.
>Also I have tried the Chaser and it didn't work, do you think it is because I didn't use the one for wine? ( I was drinking red wine, I know it is bad but it is my favorite)
Definitely try the Chaser for Wine... I don't believe the regular Chaser works for wine.
> Do you think it is okay to take one xanax while out drinking? Sometimes I get a headache even while drinking tons of water. one or one half usually helps.
Sure it's okay, as long as you follow the guidelines I set forth in my post above.
> Thanks for all your complete info!!
No problem, glad I could help. :-)
