New research is flipping the script on alcohol, showing that no amount is actually good for you.
It turns out alcohol inflames your intestines, making it harder for your body to absorb the nutrients it needs. On top of that, drinking alcohol can lead to leaky gut syndrome, which lets harmful toxins slip into your bloodstream. And if that wasn’t bad enough, alcohol also wipes out the good bacteria in your gut—the ones that help with digestion, immunity, and overall health. While a drink might feel good in the moment, your gut might not be so happy about it in the long run!
