Dry January... What is it and why should we take part?
Dry January is a charitable fundraising event put together by Alcohol Concern. The aim is to not touch one drop of alcohol during January and to put your willpower to the ultimate test! But, what we want to know is what happens to your body when you stop drinking alcohol for an entire month? Don't worry, we've done all the research and can tell you exactly what positive effects consuming no alcohol has on your mind and body!1. Weight Loss

2. Improved Health

- Improved sleep quality
- Regular digestion
- Increased concentration and energy levels
Did you know that drinking alcohol can acutely suppress your immune function, making you more vulnerable to bacteria and viruses (which is not what we need at the start of the new year)?
Alcohol also commonly puts metabolic stress on the liver which needs to be working efficiently in order to absorb fats, cholesterol and vitamins. A weak liver can result in hepatitis, tumors, abscess, cancers and many more damaging factors.
