Ask the Expert (Dr Juliet McGrattan): Alcohol and Running (Episode 138)

In this episode, we chat to Dr Juliet McGrattan, author, speaker and former GP, about running and alcohol.

 

We answer all the common questions, such as:

- is a daily glass of red wine really good for our health?

- is that post-race beer helpful?

- can you sweat out a hangover?

- how does alcohol affect sleep quality and recovery?

- is there a safe amount of alcohol consumption for athletes that won’t hinder training or performance?

- how does alcohol impact our hormones?

 

NEW - Stay tuned for our newest feature, Myth Buster, where we tackle common misconceptions.
