This Is What Your Body Does When You Stop Drinking Alcohol


Listen Later

We're halfway through Dry July; whether you're participating or not, we're taking a closer look at what actually happens to your body when you stop drinking - from day one to a year later.

Plus, we explore the growing evidence linking alcohol to cancer and why experts say even small amounts increase your risk, despite what we've been told about that daily glass of red wine.

And in headlines today childcare record-keeping practices are under scrutiny after police identified more facilities linked to an educator accused of sex offences; A workmate of accused murderer Lachlan Young, has told the court that Young planned to drug his ex-girlfriend and crash her in a car so he could scare her out of taking their house; The two men who cut down the iconic Sycamore Gap tree that stood alongside Hadrian’s wall in the UK for almost 200 years, have been sentenced to more than 4 years in jail; Apple TV’s psychological thriller Severance and HBO’s DC Universe drama The Penguin have stacked up the most nominations for television's Emmy Awards
