» DEAR DOCTORS: I always thought that you get a hangover from drinking too much. But when I have a single mixed drink, or sometimes even just one glass of wine, I wake up feeling nauseated and with a bad headache. What causes a hangover? Is there a cure?

Hitting High Notes
Guru, Pornchai Sereemongkonpol, Published on 12/10/2018
» This year saw finalists from Southeast Asia, South Korea, India, Australia and China perform at Aloft Seoul Myeongdong on Sep 20. Hanita Bhambri delivered a powerful performance of Let Me Go and is this year's winner. Through Aloft's partnership with Universal Music Group, she gets a music video and a digital release of her single to kick start her career. Although Nontree "Nate" Paitoonvongvira, who represented SEA, didn't win, he wowed the audience with a catchy performance so much that we want (you) to get to know him. You may remember him performing a jazz rendition of Britney Spears' Toxic on The Voice but there's more to this singer/interior designer.

Going bananas over Chinese investment
Life, Anchalee Kongrut, Published on 20/04/2016
» Kluai hom -- or the Cavendish banana -- found itself in the spotlight recently on social media and in local news. The issue involves Chinese investors renting land in Chiang Rai to grow kluai hom. Local villagers complained about water because the farm sucked up a large volume of it, leaving so little for local farmers. Fears about the use of chemical fertilisers also arose. Another problem is that the practice might be against the law, which reserves the occupation of farmer for Thais. The public is alarmed because Chinese-backed kluai hom farming in Laos has already proved a disaster. Toxic pesticides are dumped into the river, while environmental management is below par.

Cuties for the cute
Life, Parisa Pichitmarn, Published on 03/10/2014
» Treat your little misses to adorable bags and accessories that will make them the envy of all the other girls. Local children's brand Sati has been around for four years now, making handmade hair clips, headbands, handbags and other cute paraphernalia that young ladies can fawn over. Every single product comes from meticulous handiwork, but don't worry if the children wear them to the water: they're sturdy and also have a usage guarantee. If anything breaks, all knick knacks can be sent in for repairs. Most importantly, Sati products are free from chemicals, lead and heavy metals, while also passing America's CPSIA (Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act of 2008) standard — a law that protects child consumers from goods. The nail polish that has been developed by the Science faculty at Silpakorn University for Sati is also non-toxic and free from chemicals such as formalin and toluene, which smells like paint thinner.

Harry shows Bangkok some Styles
Life, Kong Rithdee, Published on 14/03/2023
» The accessory du jour was the fluffy pink boa. The colour scheme was hot pink -- pink pants, pink boots, pink cowboy hats, pink eyeshadow, pink hijabs. Or if not pink, then anything in the tooth-aching shades of the rainbow. It was a lively, joyous sight on Saturday night, a show of hot-hue aesthetics in a defiant contrast to the brutalist concrete skeleton of Rajamangala Stadium. How I wish concrete-mad Bangkok could look like this every day!

Life, Published on 21/02/2023
» DEAR DOCTORS: I had chemotherapy for breast cancer. It was successful and I'm getting my strength back, but I'm having trouble with thinking and memory. My doctor calls it "chemo brain" and says it will get better. Why is this happening? How long is it going to last?
