Description: Send us Fan MailAlcohol is one of the most widely consumed substances in the world, but the science around it is more confusing than most people realise.In this episode, we break down what the evidence actually says about alcohol, fat loss, appetite, muscle retention, and of course, a big disclaimer about health.We also discuss:- Why alcohol research is so difficult- The problems with observational studies- The “red wine is healthy” narrative- Drinking culture - Dose-dependent riskAs always, the goal is objective and nuanced discussion, not exaggerated black and white views. Whilst we are absolutely not encouraging alcohol intake, we think it is a good idea for you to understand what the research actually says. If you enjoy evidence-based discussions about nutrition, fitness, and health myths, subscribe and let us know what topics you want us to cover next.P.S., If you want to support us and you would like monthly lifting workouts, you can join the Momentum by Sohee fitness app. http://momentumbysohee.comIf you are interested in fat loss science, you can purchase Ben's best-selling comprehensive fat loss book, Everything Fat Loss. http://geni.us/EverythingFatLoss
