ACTRESS ANNE HATHAWAY recently spoke out about her decision to cut her alcohol intake until her toddler son hit adulthood.
“I don’t totally love the way I do it,” she said of her old drinking habits.
Hathaway isn’t the only one out there who has reaped the benefits of drinking less. Irish model and nutritionist Rosanna Davison says she keeps alcohol to “special occasions… as I really don’t like the feeling of being drunk”, while Niall Breslin says he still enjoys having a drink with friends, “but I just don’t do it in excess.”
Thinking of cutting down? As well as having endless mileage for smug #sobercurious, #alcoholfree or of course #hangoverfree Instagram posts, you’ll also be opening yourself up to a huge range of health benefits, in the short and long term.
For example…
1. Drinking less means your body can fight illness better
Excessive alcohol consumption disrupts your body’s immune defence mechanisms, making you more vulnerable to repeated colds and infections, or more serious illnesses like pneumonia. The less you drink, the better chance you have of fighting sickness.
