Hangover At A Glance

At risk of being late to the party on this one, it is worth re-stating that there is no cure for a hangover other than not drinking. Much has been written and remains in pop culture regarding remedies for the dreaded hangover. A surprising amount of scientific literature fails to explain the hangover syndrome other than it may be a mild version of severe alcohol withdrawal.

Dust mites live off the dead skin cells found usually in beds, and they spend their entire lives in this environment. An adult female will lay between 40 and 80 eggs in small clusters. These eggs hatch, and grow to maturity in one month, and then live as adults for another three months. Therefore the reproduction cycle continues, and at all times there are bed mites, eggs, dead mites and faeces present in the bed. Read more »
