In the UK, 82% of adults drink alcohol, 48% of adults drink once per week, yet it is widely known as a toxin to the body on many levels, and it’s primary action is a depressant. 5% of all deaths worldwide are linked to alcohol, with alcohol related issues rising significantly since the pandemic.

But, alcohol is a cultural and societal norm, it's everywhere and it’s totally normal to drink it, more normal than any other drug in circulation. It’s used to enjoy yourself, unwind, relieve stress, and escape your problems.

So the question is, how much is too much, is one drink ok, or are we missing its true effects not just on our physical health, but on our mental health. And if you exercise and drink, is it ok, or holding you back?

I’ve been particularly interested in this since going alcohol free. It’s been 6 months now, and in this podcast I’ll share my experience, some physiological statistics around alcohol use, how I accidently started this experiment, and my argument for a life without alcohol. With a special guest segment, Ruari Fairbairns from ‘One Year No Beer’.

As ever, come to this show with an open mind….

Caffeine is the world's most popular drug, but is it serving us in the way we use it? I’ve gone caffeine free several times, so I’ve tested this a lot, and I’ve now found a sweet spot in my life, which is still very low in caffeine.

In this show I’ll explore why I think caffeine has a dark side, how it could be negatively affecting your health optimisation efforts, its relationship with stress, why people with heart issues get told to cut down, what's really the issue, what the different types of energy are, and more.
