Piece of cake: How to defeat a hangover.

Now, it is not a secret that our readers enjoy a drink or two ( or more). Some of our readers are plain alcoholics . However, here at Fromgirltogirl, we believe all individuals deserve freedom in actions and in words! It is your life… so instead of condemning people we look for advice! A hangover can be brutal and two good ways to shorten the time of one can be easily accessible! What are remedies? Water and coffee are the answers!

 If you can not or do not enjoy drinking water, try any fluids with vast amounts of minerals and electrolytes. You can find these two items in energy drinks! These will help hydrate you. As for the coffee, it will help relieve some of the pain of your headaches! But do not forget to consume more of the water or energy drink than you do of the coffee!

Happy drinking. Be responsible.

Fromgirltogirl Question of the day: Should couples be strictly civil unions?

We love hearing from readers on their opinions and views on social matters and concerns. Today’s question of the day resolves on civil unions vs.marriage. Is one greater than the other? Should we all only have civil unions?

They ( the Homosexual community fighting for marriage rights) argue that marriage is something everyone recognizes, the “gold standard” of relationships, while civil unions are confusing.  Marriage has been around for a long time and civil unions, a new idea, simply do not command the same respect and donot convey the same meaning in society. Do you agree?


Please post your comments to us on this article! We love public forums! The topic will also be up on @fromgirltogirl twitter and our Facebook page!

Update on Sprite step-off competition: Awards too soon?

Thursday morning, Fromgirltogirl received  an update about the competition results. There are now two winners to the contest because of faulty scoring.

Check out the statement :


“After the competition, we conducted a post-competition review and discovered a scoring discrepancy. There is no conclusive interpretation, nor definitive resolution for the discrepancy.
Sprite is committed to upholding the honesty and integrity of the competition. Because the scoring discrepancy cannot be resolved and due to the extremely narrow margin between the first and second place winning sororities, we believe that the appropriate course of action is to name both Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc., Tau Chapter and Zeta Tau Alpha, Epsilon Chapter, co-first place winners of the Sprite Step Off. Accordingly, we will increase Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc., Tau Chapter’s scholarship prize to $100,000, consistent with first prize winnings.
Sprite Step Off was created for the primary purpose of awarding scholarships and supporting talented college students in their quest for higher education.” – Sprite official statement.

Peaches: High in vitamin C. Men should consume at least 200 milligrams of vitamin C per day to increase the quality and quantity of their sperm.
Flaxseed: Increases testosterone levels and is packed with essential fatty acids, such as Omega-3 and Omega-6, which keeps hormones at optimal levels and sex drive revved.

Ginger root: Stimulates the circulatory system, increasing blood flow to the genitals.

Nutmeg: Stimulates the parasympathetic nervous system, which helps you relax.
Honey: Honey is rich in vitamin B, which is needed for testosterone production. The gooey nectar also contains boron, which may increase estrogen levels in women.
