When You Can't Scratch Away An Itch

Nothing is more annoying than a really bad itch. But imagine an itch you could never scratch away. Scarily, it's a real thing. Anthony explains a possible treatment for chronic itchiness, and the fascinating way our body processes that 'itchy' sensation. Read More: Scientists Unravel Mechanisms in Chronic Itching http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2013/10/131015123338.htm "Anyone who has suffered through sleepless nights due to uncontrollable itching knows that not all itching is the same." Why We Itch http://www.livescience.com/7181-itch.html "Itchy skin fires up nerves and drives sufferers to scratch themselves raw, some even in their sleep. But the mechanisms behind aggravating itches are not entirely understood, and a new finding makes the whole problem seem even more complex." Nociceptor http://www.sciencedaily.com/articles/n/nociceptor.htm "A nociceptor is a sensory receptor that sends signals that cause the perception of pain in response to potentially damaging stimulus." Why do we itch? http://www.straightdope.com/columns/read/3095/why-do-we-itch "As bodily defense mechanisms go, pain makes sense: put your hand on a hot stove and your body screams "Get out of here!" But what's the purpose of itching? Chicken pox, mosquito bites, hemorrhoids, and rashes: why do we instinctively react by scratching?" Solved! The Mystery of the Maddening Itch http://science.time.com/2013/05/23/solved-the-mystery-of-the-maddening-itch/ "O.K., so it doesn't quite rank up there with unraveling the cause of Alzheimer's or Parkinson's disease.

Which Alcohol Gives the Worst Hangover?

Order: Reorder
Duration: 3:49
Updated: 14 Jan 2014

If you've ever had one too many beers with your friends one night, you'll know how terrible that next morning can be. Hangovers are no fun, and if you drink, there's really no way to avoid them. But is there a type of alcohol that gives a worse hangover than the others? Anthony breaks down what causes hangovers, and examines if there is a type of alcohol that will cause a worse headache than the others. Read More: How Hangovers Work http://science.howstuffworks.com/life/human-biology/hangover3.htm "Different types of alcohol can result in different hangover symptoms. This is because some types of alcoholic drinks have a higher concentration of congeners, byproducts of fermentation in some alcohol."

Alcohol Hangover - Mechanisms and Mediators http://pubs.niaaa.nih.gov/publications/arh22-1/54-60.pdf "Multiple possible contributors to the hangover state have been investigated, and researchers have produced evidence that alcohol can directly promote hangover symptoms through its effects on urine production, the gastrointestinal tract, blood sugar concentrations, sleep patterns, and biological rhythms." The Science of Hangovers http://www.theguardian.com/science/sifting-the-evidence/2013/dec/19/the-science-of-hangovers "There is mixed evidence for a variety of factors that determine how we may react differently to alcohol and hangover." Congeners http://banderasnews.com/0506/rr-congeners.htm "Congeners are toxic chemicals that are formed during fermentation, some liquors have more of them than others." Dark Liquor Makes For Worse Hangovers http://www.wired.com/wiredscience/2009/12/dark-liquor-makes-for-worse-hangovers/ "In a head-to-head comparison, bourbon gave drinkers a more severe hangover than vodka." Why Cheap Booze Makes Your Hangover So Horrible http://gizmodo.com/5966569/why-cheap-booze-makes-your-hangover-so-horrible "It is widely believed that because cheaper alcoholic beverages begin with lower-quality ingredients, more congeners are likely to be produced at the fermentation stage." Alcohol use and safe drinking http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/001944.htm "Certain types of alcoholic drinks get into your bloodstream faster. A carbonated (fizzy) alcoholic drink, such as champagne, will be absorbed faster than a non-carbonated drink." Effects of Alcohol on Your Body http://www.princeton.edu/uhs/healthy-living/hot-topics/alcohol/ "If your drink is carbonated, the increased pressure in your stomach will force alcohol into your bloodstream faster; conversely, food in the stomach slows the absorption of alcohol by preventing it from going directly to the small intestine, where it would be absorbed much faster."
