It is full of fats and oils, so you can replenish the lipids that were damaged by lipid peroxidation from hydroxyethyl radicals as well as tie up any oxygen radicals still floating around in your system.<br />2. By eating, you are restoring blood sugar levels as well as providing some amino acids and proteins that can also be scavenged for cellular repairs.<br />3. Metabolizing anything produces very small quantities of water, which are normally utilized in further metabolism. This metabolic water can help enzymes function.<br />4. The effects of eating fried chicken are psychosomatic: you like eating fried chicken and it so it makes you feel good when you do so because of endorphins exciting certain receptors in your brain relating to pleasure - similar to a "runner's high".<br /><br />Can anybody validate or contest these statements? These are just my guesses.Jeremyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02993758762810660067noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4248546133851524141.post-71378358181658453412011-02-03T12:37:47.216-06:002011-02-03T12:37:47.216-06:00Can you explain scientifically why fried chicken h...Can you explain scientifically why fried chicken helps eliminate my hangovers?Tomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09745860133919981222noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4248546133851524141.post-69593962378591434752011-02-02T14:24:33.848-06:002011-02-02T14:24:33.848-06:00There's a bad joke somewhere in here with all ...There's a bad joke somewhere in here with all this science terminology.

It is acetaminophen that turns your liver into stone.<br /><br />So,<br /><br /><br />DO NOT TAKE ACETAMINOPHEN or NSAID PAIN KILLERS (e.g. - aspirin, ibuprofen, naproxen) BEFORE, DURING, OR AFTER THE CONSUMPTION OF ALCOHOL. If you do, you create adducts that literally slices your stomach and/or kills your liver cells upon contact, which can ultimately lead to cirrhosis among other things.<br /><br />Again, my apologies.Jeremyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02993758762810660067noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4248546133851524141.post-44582422074120116722011-02-01T15:58:56.125-06:002011-02-01T15:58:56.125-06:00Fascinating!
