Water, Tylenol, toast are all helping hands for holiday hangovers, but there’s a new one involving a vegetable you may or may not like.

Asparagus could be the new miracle cure, according to a new study from researchers in South Korea.

They said the amino acids and vitamins could replace those that are lost through drinking and they could also help protect the liver.

The researchers said that asparagus leaves have the highest levels of the protective substances.
