Abstract

A comparison of hangover severity in individuals on a diet that elicits ketosis (KD) versus individuals not on any diet (non-KD), reveal ketosis may attenuate hangover symptoms. Data was collected utilizing self-report questionnaires and adds to the growing literature suggesting a KD may decrease negative side-effects associated with alcohol consumption.
