Drink mix headache theory busted

-

A NEW liquor study has quashed the theory that consumptio­n of wine, beer and spirits in different orders can intensify hangover pain.

Cambridge University scientists asked 90 participan­ts to try different drink combinatio­ns over two sessions. The day after each test, the group ranked symptoms including tiredness, headaches and nausea. The results revealed the adage “beer before wine and you’ll feel fine” is wrong.
