We know alcohol isn’t ideal — but do we know what it’s really doing to us? @ProfDavidNutt joined @LizEarleMe on the Age Better podcast to break down the science behind how it affects brain, sleep and health — and why it hits harder as we age. 🎧 Worth a listen podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcas…

GABA plays a crucial role in helping the brain switch from “go” mode to “rest” mode. In this short video we explore how this key inhibitory neurotransmitter supports relaxation and the onset of sleep. 🧠💤

It’s exciting to see functional drinks gaining momentum. For years I’ve studied alcohol’s effects on the brain, now we’re applying that science to build better alternatives. I'm delighted that the first functional cider is now available - so far just in the UK! sentiaspirits.com/products/g…

Today is #BrewMonday ☕ There’s no such thing as the “most depressing day of the year”, but winter can feel lonely. Brew Monday is about reaching out, putting the kettle on, and having a proper chat. A small moment of connection can go a long way 💛

A fantastic piece from @HelenaSips on Functional Drinks. Functional drinks are becoming a fast-growing part of the beverage industry, driven by people looking for more from what they drink, beyond flavour or alcohol content. We're proud to be a part of this fast developing space. helenasips.com/p/what-are-fu…

A great conversation with @NakedScientists on GABYR 🍺🧠 @ProfDavidNutt talks through how alcohol affects the brain, why GABA matters for calm and sociability, and how functional, alcohol-free beers can be designed to work with the brain- without many of alcohol’s unwanted effects. Worth a read if you’re curious about where alcohol-free is heading. thenakedscientists.com/artic…

You may have noticed we’ve rebranded… temporarily. Dry January is often talked about as something everyone should do the same way. But January doesn’t need a rulebook. It’s about choice — how you unwind, socialise, and stay connected. Just doing January your way. #MyJanuary #DryJanMyJan
