From magical massages to the miracle pill that will (apparently) shift your symptoms in less than 15 minutes, we've covered some strange hangover cures in our time.

As well as the weirder options, we've also brought you our own pearls of wisdom in the form of the top 10 budget hangover cures.

But from now on there can be no disputing it - a video from AsapSCIENCE has outlined the perfect cure to hangovers. And everyone knows you don't argue with scientists.

We'll let you enjoy the video below, but here are some of the main pointers you need to remember...

• Eating carbs before you go out will maintain your blood sugar levels and prevent nausea. This can only be a good thing.

• Eating fatty foods slows down the rate at which alcohol is absorbed into your body - you'll turn from a lightweight into a LAD in no time.

• Water. Lots and lots of water. Before, during and after. Not exactly ground breaking, but if you don't drink water your brain will shrink. Yeah, that's what we said, so drink up.

• Dark drinks (like red wine and whiskey) contain Congeners. No we didn't know it was a word either - but they are extra toxins that will make you feel worse. Avoid them if you can.

• Neck some aspirin before you hit the hay and you'll be laughing. OK, maybe not laughing. Unless you're a sleep laugher. That would be weird.

• The next morning eggs help break down alcohol, bananas help brain and muscle function and fruit juice helps get rid of those pesky toxins.

So there you have it - first they invented gravity (or something?), just a few days ago they finally got their hands on the elusive Higgs-Boson, but now those amazing scientists have topped it all and cured the hangover...ish.

Think a discovery like that requires a celebration. Drink?
