IT’S PATIO SEASON!

And you know what that means, cocktails like mojitos and peach sangria if you are me!

But we “know” that alcohol isn’t good for us… right? At least that is what we are told.

But WHY?

In this episode I cover:

- Types of alcohol and their calories

- Alcohol’s effect on our liver in menopause

- Alcohol’s effect on our hormones

- Alcohol’s effect on our brain

- Alcohol’s effect on our sleep

- And how all the above influence your ability to be able to lose weight

This is NOT me telling you not to drink - instead to help you understand what it does to your body with just 3-4 drinks a week and then you can make an informed decision!
