1. The most expensive wine ever sold is a bottle of 1787 Chateau Lafite which sold at Christie's London in December 1985, for £105,000. The wine is reported to be from the cellar of the former US President Thomas Jefferson. However, this has since been reported to be fake by American industrialist William Koch.*
2. Although many people find drinking alcohol makes them feel merry, it is in fact a depressant drug. It dulls the part of the brain that controls judgment, leading to a loss of inhibitions.
3. Only 20% of the alcohol you swallow is absorbed by the stomach and when you consume alcohol you lose more water in your urine than you take in the drink itself.
4. Alcohol might make you feel warmer, but it actually causes you to lose heat and reduces your core body temperature. A lowering of your core body temperature by just 2°C causes hypothermia.
5. Is there a foolproof hangover cure? No, sorry there isn't one. General advice is to drink plenty of water, possibly even a sports drink to rebalance those electrolytes and go back to bed.
