Whether it's a date night, vacation, wedding, or girls' night out, alcohol is a part of many people's lives—but can you still prioritize your health while enjoying a drink?
In this episode, I'm sharing exactly what I do before, during, and after drinking alcohol as a functional medicine practitioner. We'll talk about how alcohol affects your hormones, gut health, sleep, blood sugar, and recovery, along with simple, realistic strategies to help you feel your best without obsessing over perfection.
We'll cover:
Is alcohol ever "healthy"?
My personal approach to drinking
Why I never drink on an empty stomach
The best food to eat before a night out
My go-to alcohol choices
Hydration and electrolyte tips
How I recover the next day
The biggest mistakes people make after drinking
This isn't about eliminating alcohol or encouraging it—it's about making informed choices, supporting your body, and remembering that one night out doesn't define your health. Because true wellness is built through consistency, not perfection.
