  • Summary

  • We all know alcohol isn’t great for our health, and hangovers are no one’s idea of fun. But what does “responsible drinking” mean, exactly? How much booze can we consume without affecting our wellbeing in the long term? What about the benefits of drinking - will a glass of red a day really keep the GP away?  Joining us to answer these questions is Professor David Nutt, doctor, wine bar owner, and author of the excellent book Drink? The New Science of Alcohol and Your Health. He tells us how alcohol can affect everything from mental health to the menopause, and how we can manage its effects. We also discuss why he fell out with the Government, the magic potion he’s working on, and the fact all cavemen were p*ssheads. True story.  After listening to the Prof you might not fancy the usual six pints of wine tonight, so why not try Remedy Kombucha instead? There are lots of lovely flavours to choose from - I find the Mango Passion goes very well with fish fingers. And they taste like they’re made for grown-ups, with no sugar or artificial sweeteners. AND they’ve got antioxidants and organic acids in, which are probably better for your gut health than vodka. You can get Remedy Kombucha from Morrisons, Tesco, Amazon, Ocado, Holland and Barrett, Starbucks, M&S and remedydrinks.com. #AD Sort Your Sh*t Out is produced by Laura Grimshaw (@lorlyjane) and the music is by John Thorn.
