Party time!
What’s the healthiest way to drink alcohol?
First, don’t ever drink if you shouldn’t. And don’t lie to yourself about whether you fall into that category.
Stay with one kind of alcohol (beer, wine, or a particular hard liquor).
Drink two glasses of water for every glass of alcohol (that’s 12 ounces of beer, 4 ounces of wine, or 1 shot of hard liquor).
Limit yourself to two drinks per event (or day, if you’re going to more than one party).
Limit yourself to five drinks a week.
Remember that alcohol inhibits your decision-making abilities. If you need to make good decisions about your life, career, relationships, or driving – or even about dessert – then don’t drink. Save it for another party.
