Is Alcohol Making You Fat?
According to Susie Burrell, “The issue with alcohol and weight control is that as the body identifies alcohol as a toxin, it processes it before other nutrients which in turn means that any food consumed with the alcohol, fatty food in particular, are more likely to be stored. The good news, however, is that if we were to drink a glass of wine occasionally or sip on a spirit over an hour there would be no issue at all.” In this post for our Healthy Lifestyle Blog, Susie discusses the effects of alcohol on our bodies and explains why it is possible to strike a balance between enjoyment, health and weight control when it comes to alcohol consumption.
