With that in mind, this month’s news- letter is about the effects of alcohol on the body and the benefits of cutting down or cutting it out completely – read to the end to join me in a great challenge for the month of October. Whether you’re not a big drinker or don’t A glass of alcohol every so often, especially drink alcohol at all; keep reading as if you are living a healthy lifestyle (i.e., eat this could be helpful information for healthily, do regular exercise, and don’t have someone you know, or the alcohol that you are excessive stress levels), is not thought to have drinking may be having a bigger effect on your a major impact on your health. But if you find body than you realize. it difficult to stop after just one glass, or have regular binge sessions, the cumulative effects So, what does alcohol do to the body? can add up. As well as the health issues shown in the above picture, alcohol can have a serious impact on your weight, and here’s why: photo taken from healthline.com 1. Alcohol is a lot of empty calories • Meaning that you get no nutrients from alcohol, and it’s very high in calories (7kcal/g – higher than protein and carbohydrates) 2. Alcohol slows your metabolism down • Your body will burn the alcohol first before fat or sugar. And if it doesn’t get to the fat and sugar, excess energy will then be stored as fat 3. Alcohol makes you hungry • It activates the starvation mode in the brain, which makes you feel like you need food NOW!! Not only that, it also inhibits the decision-making process, which is why you tend to make worse food choices when inebriated 4. Alcohol spikes cortisol levels (the stress hormone) 8

The next day • If you’ve had a big night, you tend to want to lie on the couch all day, watching movies and eating greasy take out – both things that, for obvious reasons, lead to weight gain “Most people intuitively know that alcohol equals unnecessary calories. What we often fail to appreciate is how much deeper it goes. Alcohol does not cause weight gain in the same way eating a donut does. It impacts our decision-making, lowers our metabolism, produces additional stress, and traps us in an unhealthy cycle of binge eating and lounging.” www.soberish.co So, October 2nd is World No Alcohol Day, but why not take it further and join Wellness at Nash in giving up alcohol for the whole of the month of October. You don’t have to be an alcoholic, or even someone who suffers with problems due to alcohol, but what have you got to lose?! Here are 6 benefits of giving up alcohol for 30 days: Chai Blossom Mocktail: Ingredients: • 1/4 cup monk fruit sugar 1/2 cup lime juice • 4 whole star anise pods 4 lemon twists • 8–12oz. club soda 2 chai tea bags Directions: • Combine tea bags and 1 cup boiling water in a small bowl. Cover and let sit for 8–10 minutes. • Add monk fruit sugar, stir to dissolve.
