Heavy drinking signals an unhealthy relationship with alcohol. This relationship often sours slowly, making it difficult to pinpoint when you’ve crossed the line from moderate drinking to something more problematic.
We’ve all been there: after a night of revelry and toasting to the good times, we wake up to the harsh reality of a pounding headache, a subtle feeling of dryness and thirst, and a painfully sore throat. It’s a discomfort that prompts the question: “Why does my throat hurt after drinking, and how can I fix it?”

Does a glass of red wine a day really make you healthier? What about white wine, beer, or a cocktail? What if it’s 6 or 7 glasses over the weekend instead of one a day – does that matter?
With so many studies on “moderate drinking” and heart health, it’s hard to know exactly how much, how often, and what type is best for you.
We’ll look into the role alcohol awareness plays in our day-to-day life and explore the different ways you can wield it as a powerful tool to build healthier and more mindful drinking practices.
Dry(ish) January is a popular reset option. Whether you choose to go sober or reduce your alcohol intake, expect both options to affect your body.
Fortunately, we have a good idea of how your body will react. We’ve tracked the progress, benefits, and outcomes of the more than 25,000 people who signed up for our 2023 Dry(ish) January challenge. Some participants chose to go completely dry for the month, while others cut back and designated dry days for each week.
