What Alcohol Is Really Doing to Your Hormones and Belly Fat
You’ve been told a little wine is harmless. But experts say it’s impacting your brain, your hormones, and your sleep more than you think. The good news? What you eat can help change that.
In this episode, Tamsen sits down with Dr. Brooke Scheller, a Doctor of Clinical Nutrition and author of How to Eat to Change How You Drink, to reveal how food can lower cravings, balance hormones, and protect your health—even if you still enjoy a drink. You’ll learn why alcohol tolerance shifts with age, how it affects your mood and energy, and the simple nutrition strategies that make it easier to feel your best without giving up everything you love.
Here’s what you’ll take away:
- Why your evening cravings have more to do with blood sugar than willpower
- How alcohol impacts your brain, hormones, and long-term health
- The truth about alcohol and midlife belly fat (and what to do about it)
- The surprising link between drinking, stress, and sleep disruption
- Foods that help reset your body and cut back effortlessly
- Smart ways to drink less (without feeling deprived)
In this episode, Dr. Scheller shows you how to make small, smart changes that can transform the way you feel about drinking.
