Food poisoning or hangover? Here’s how you can tell the difference

Food Poisoning News

When you drink too much alcohol at night, you may wake up feeling sick the next day. The majority of people assume it’s another awful hangover, but there’s a chance that food poisoning or even alcohol poisoning could be to blame. Because both food poisoning and a hangover might induce nausea, vomiting, and headaches, determining whether you’re experiencing one of them can be tough.

A few key characteristics can help you figure out if it’s food poisoning or a hangover. If you have a fever, chills, and body aches, it’s more likely to be food poisoning. If you have a throbbing headache and feel very thirsty with a dry mouth, it’s more likely to be a hangover. Other symptoms like diarrhea are common to both conditions.

Let’s look into both hangovers and food poisoning in further detail at the link above.
