Alcohol is fine in moderation but most of us are drinking more than is healthy. Alcohol affects every part of the body and also speeds up ageing.  

 

If you want to look good, feel good, live a long and happy life then it is important to drink in moderation.  

 

Alcohol is a depressant, it affects your central nervous system, drink enough and you shut down. Because alcohol reduces inhibition, people believe it is a relaxant, but remember it is just shutting you down, you are losing control. 

 

To be genuinely relaxed is quite a different experience and one in which you are totally in control. Real relaxation is a lovely experience and one with no side effects – no come down! 

 

 

 

Tips for social occasions… 

 

Always start the event with a long soft drink. We humans like to settle ourselves into new situations; usually we are a bit self-conscious, not quite at ease, so we will drink whatever is in the glass, which can mean we are pissed before the party has even started! 

 

By the time you have sipped your soft drink you will probably be much more comfortable in your surroundings and less likely to drink too much alcohol. 

 

Pace yourself – have a soft drink, then an alcoholic one, and then a soft drink. Remember alcohol is dehydrating, rehydrate with soft drinks, you will feel much better. 

 

I bet at the end of the evening or event, you will feel much better, more awake and will remember what you have said. 

 

The next morning you will feel good. 

 

All your relationships will improve, as you are now much more in control of your life.
