"   We already know that skin can give you cancer and seriously damage your brain over time. Not worried about that? Well, you&amp;#039;ll be in pain in the short-term, too: Scientists now say that having a cigarette can make your hangover a whole lot worse.  Scientists from Brown University asked 113 college students to record their drinking and smoking\u2014and next-day hangovers\u2014for eight weeks. When the students drank heavily, the ones who said they smoked also reported terrible hangovers the next day. The problem? Scientists aren&amp;#039;t sure why there&amp;#039;s a correlation between the two. It might have something to do with the chemical acetaldehyde. It&amp;#039;s one of the ingredients in cigarettes that also forms in our cells when we&amp;#039;re drinking alcohol\u2014so the added concentration could cause problems.  Regardless, you should probably nix the cigarettes during a night out\u2014or anytime, really. It might be fun at the time, but you&amp;#039;ll totally regret it when you&amp;#039;re miserable the next day. Want more from Meagan? Follow her on Twitter.
