MIX IT UP - Alcohol during the Holidays!

Navigating through the holidays can be tricky when it comes to alcohol. If you've worked with me, you know that I'm about moderation and enjoying eating and drinking guilt-free.

So how do you do that when you're enjoying more parties than usual?

Here are a few tips you can consider:

Be intentional - before going out tell yourself the number of drinks you'll have in a evening and stick with that. Moderation would be 1-2 drinks.

Drink in moderation

Never drink on an empty stomach.

Enjoy a sparkling water with fresh lime so that you have something in your hand. Alternatively, enjoy a mocktail (see recipe in blog).

Have a glass of water in between each glass of wine / cocktail.

Drinking water is always the best way to prevent a hangover. Drink a large glass when you wake up in the morning. Add a dash of sea salt for electrolytes.

Eat nutrient dense foods before and after drinking

Take B vitamin supplements: including B-1, B-6 and B-12, to boost your body's metabolism and replace the B vitamins lost the night before.

Include Vitamin C to protect your immunity.

The Wine Wand (sold on Amazon) - removes sulfates and histamines from wine which is great for those with allergies to it. Note, it does not truly prevent hangovers as it doesn't remove the main culprit: alcohol ;)
