Remember when you could drink without consequences? Now even a few drinks leave you wrecked the next day. You're not imagining it - hangovers really are getting worse.
Every time you drink, alcohol turns into toxins that poison your liver, brain, and gut. And here's the thing - as you get older, your body makes less of what it needs to break down those toxins. That's why the same drinks that were fine years ago, wreck you now.
Most people accept this as "just part of getting older." They skip social events. Say no to drinks at dinner. Miss out on fun because they know tomorrow will be hell.
The real problem: Your body can't handle alcohol like it used to. Toxins build up all night. You wake up with that pounding head, sick stomach, the "what did I say?" anxiety, and your entire day wasted recovering.
