Dry January: How It Affects Your Health

Are you doing a Dry January? Dry Januaries have become popular recently. Basically, it’s just a commitment to be booze-free for the month of January – after over-indulgence during the holidays.

DRY JANUARY IS BAD FOR YOUR HEALTH

Now that the holidays are over, many people have made it a tradition to give up alcohol for a month -- you know … to let their livers recover.

It seems that once January is over, people who’ve given up booze for a month feel like they have permission to drink as much as they want -- starting in February -- and that excessive drinking continues for the rest of the year.

Instead of going cold turkey for 31 days straight, the doctors recommend not drinking three days each week.

Taking a break for just those three days each week helps your body recover -- and doesn't make you feel like you’re torturing yourself. (LadBible)
