Herbs, Homeopathy and Supplements taken before and after the party will:
Help to support the liver against those ‘morning after’ feelings associated with over-indulgence
Support the delicate lining of the digestive system (including the stomach)
Help the body to naturally stabilize and balance after excessive rich food or alcohol consumption
Maintain healthy liver functioning and protection
Rich food, desserts, wine, and general over-consumption can put stress on the liver. Everything that enters our body must be detoxified and refined by the liver.
While excessive consumption of alcohol or overly rich food is not recommended, it is possible to protect your system from some of the side effects during times of occasional over-indulgence.
Protective Remedies to take before and after the party or dinner are:
Protective Party Herbal Formula

Homeopathic Formula for Overindulgence
There is an Overindulgence Homeopathic Formula that can temporarily relieve hangover symptoms like headaches and nausea, along with The Protective Party Herbal Formula.
The Overindulgence Homeopathic Formula is made up of:
| Homeopathic Remedy | Action | Dose |
| Lupulus humulus 30c | For nausea, dizziness and headache. If you wake with a dull, heavy headache with dizziness and with skin that feels chapped after a night out, you could benefit from this remedy. | |
| Lobelia Inflata 30c | Best suited for those that suffer gastric problems such as morning nausea and vomiting following intoxication. If your urine is deep orange/red the morning after a night of alcohol consumption you would benefit from this remedy. | |
| Nux vomica 30c | is a remedy for people who work and play hard and who often overindulge with food and drink. It can help nausea, vomiting and abdominal pains. It also improves the symptoms of the bad effects of coffee, tobacco, alcoholic stimulants, highly spiced or seasoned foods, overeating, long continued mental exertion, sedentary habits and loss of sleep. | |
| 6 drops of the combination every 30 minutes until the symptoms subside.
|
Please note that regular or excessive alcohol consumption can lead to liver disease and other health and social problems. Drink alcohol responsibly, and never drink and drive.
The Homeopathic Formula for Overindulgence can be ordered from me or each remedy can be obtained separately from a homeopathic pharmacy.
