Ep. 070 - Alcohol and the Brain

As attorneys one of the most important things we can do for our clients is provide them with sufficient and accurate information for them to make an informed decision. On the next episode of Attorney Heart, I provide you with important information related to how alcohol impacts our health, with a specific focus on how it impacts our brain. In our fast-paced, high-stress, always-going, don’t-stop lifestyle, it can be easy for us to rely on a few drinks a week (or a day) to take the edge off. But how does alcohol impact our brain’s cognitive abilities? How does it impact our focus and attention? Does it affect our memory and does alcohol really shrink our brain? Do we lose any healthy nutrients when we drink or is it just toxins that enter our body? Does our brain fully recover by the next day? While it may not provide all of the answers in relation to alcohol and our health, I hope you find this next episode helpful and that it allows you to make an informed decision about the relationship you may currently have with alcohol. Wishing you awesome health and wellness! ----------------------------------------------------------------- New Attorney Heart interviews will be posted on iMATER NOW’s YouTube channel.
