Alcohol Intake
If you have noticed you are consuming too many units of alcohol a week, you could be at risk of becoming alcohol dependent and developing a range of health problems including cancer, heart disease, stroke and liver disease.
Reducing alcohol intake can aid in reducing your weight, improving your energy, mood and sleep quality. Please see below link for the Drink Aware website which can help you plan a way to reduce drinking and calculate your current intake. https://www.drinkaware.co.uk/tools
