Thinking about your health? Cutting back on alcohol is a simple way to feel and live better. Even small changes can make a big difference!

How Alcohol Affects Your Body

Having a drink now and then is fine, but regular or heavy drinking can sneak up on your health. Alcohol can:

·       Raise your blood pressure

·       Make blood sugar harder to control

·       Weaken your immune system

·       Disrupt your sleep

·       Increase your risk for cancer and other diseases

Your Mood and Mind Matter Too

Alcohol doesn’t just affect your body—it can impact your mood and mental health. It can lead to feeling anxious, sad, or foggy, and make it harder to sleep well or concentrate.

Why Less Is Best

Cutting back means:

·       More energy and better focus

·       Healthier weight

·       Stronger immune system

·       Brighter skin and happier mood

Simple Tips to Drink Less

·       Try sparkling water or tasty teas instead

·       Hang out with friends who support your goals

·       Keep track of your progress and celebrate milestones
