Sweet Potatoes

In addition to being a great source of potassium, which can help maintain electrolyte balance after consuming alcohol, sweet potatoes are also rich in complex carbs.

Because carbs are made up of larger molecules that take longer to digest, they may help lessen the negative effects of alcohol on your body. One research involving 10 people found that consuming boiling sweet potatoes reduced blood sugar spikes and crashes, which may help to lessen hunger and avoid overeating caused by alcohol. Before going out, make a batch of sweet potato fries for a quick snack or side dish. Sweet potatoes can simply be sliced into wedges, tossed with olive oil and spices, then baked for 20 to 25 minutes at 425°F (220°C).
