videoWhile most people get sleepy after a few drinks, 8% of the population has a gene variant
While most people get sleepy after a few drinks, 8% of the population has a gene variant that triggers a massive dopamine surge and energy spike instead. These are the people still buzzing at 3 AM while everyone else has crashed. But don’t be fooled, whether alcohol makes you sleepy or hyper, it’s still inhibiting your prefrontal cortex and stealing your cognitive edge.

videoIf I tell you "do not think about a pink elephant," what’s the first thing that pops into your head?
If I tell you "do not think about a pink elephant," what’s the first thing that pops into your head? Exactly. When you walk around saying "I shouldn't drink" or "I need to quit," your brain stays hyper-focused on the very thing you're trying to avoid. You're reinforcing the habit by keeping it center stage. To break the cycle, you have to shift your language from what you’re avoiding to what you’re becoming. Instead of "I'm quitting," try "I prioritize my clarity" or "I easily choose water and high energy." Follow @jamesswanwick for the best alcohol-free content! #alcoholfree #quitdrinking #wine #alcohol

videoNobody talks about this.
Nobody talks about this. Alcohol is a neurotoxin. Not “too much alcohol.” Not “binge drinking.” Alcohol. Even moderate drinking shrinks your brain over time, affecting your memory, your focus, your mental health, and your ability to think clearly. Think about that for a second.
