Illustration by Jackson GibbsMy go-to hangover fix has always been a bacon, egg, and cheese on a roll with the coldest bottle of red Gatorade I can find. I’ve learned over the years, though, that this is at best palliative and well short of a cure. In a new piece, Shayla Love looks at supplements being marketed on social media as an antidote to hangovers, taking us through the science behind them, and she considers humanity’s eternal quest to find a cure for the consequences of having one too many. Here are four things I learned from reading the story:Scientists don’t know what really causes hangovers. I’d always assumed that they came from dehydration (hence my red Gatorade), but researchers disagree on what really causes these mornings full of headaches and nausea.One of the oldest known hangover treatments goes back to ancient Egypt.

DHM (dihydromyricetin) is a natural ingredient that researchers have found can alter alcohol’s effects on the brain. But . . .These DHM supplements have not been studied clinically in humans. The study on the effectiveness of DHM as a treatment for alcohol use was done on rodents. Researchers found that DHM cleared alcohol from their bodies and reduced liver damage. Good for them, I suppose, but for us humans the search continues. And if you’re curious whether these supplements that are being pushed on Instagram are any good, you can read Love’s piece for her take.Evan and Caitlin Chambers, whose Altadena home was lost in the fires, decided to move a Craftsman house to their property.Photographs by Ethan Noah Roy for The New YorkerIn the city’s burnt neighborhoods, rebuilding is brutally expensive.
