What happens to your body when you don't drink for 100 days?

By Dr White

 


Have you ever wondered what would happen to your body if you didn't drink for 100 days?

A British brother named Jonathan Thompson, decided to personally do a 100-day non-drinking challenge to see what would happen.

The first week without alcohol

More awake during the day and sleep well at night

Many people have experienced this: the day after drinking, dizziness, headache, and even feeling a bout of nausea coming from the stomach ......

This is the physiological reaction brought on by alcohol and acetaldehyde, the metabolite of alcohol.

The good thing is that the body can metabolize alcohol in a day or so, and the benefits of not drinking soon appear.

On day 3 of sobriety, Jonathan felt better than ever in the morning: happy and clear-headed.

This is because, while drinking alcohol makes you sleepy, it also makes the quality of sleep worse.

Under the influence of alcohol, we miss some important rapid eye movement (REM) sleep in the sleep cycle, resulting in easy waking in the middle of the night and a lack of energy the next day.

It sounds exciting to see the benefits in just a few days of not drinking.

But sticking with it, isn't as easy as you might think.

24 days without alcohol

Start eating candy like crazy in order to resist alcohol addiction

In a determined effort not to break his program, he transformed his craving for alcohol into a craving for sugar.

On day 24 of sobriety, Jonathan started "inhaling" a lot of all kinds of sweets: waffles, hot cocoa ......


For most people, like to drink, in fact, like the kind of alcohol to stimulate the secretion of dopamine and serotonin and other pleasure brought by the feeling.

This pleasure, wine can be, and sugar can be.

100 Days Without Alcohol

Get back to a healthier, younger you

Before the 100-day challenge began, Jonathan underwent a series of physical examinations that revealed a number of problems.

High cholesterol

Moderate to severe fatty liver

Excessive liver fibrosis scans

This was scary for a man who was only 38 years old and had no knowledge of it beforehand.

On the 100th day of the no-drinking challenge, Jonathan decided to go back for another check-up.

The change in his body image was obvious: he had lost weight.

         Day 1 vs Day 100, my belly and boobs have been reduced to a size that is visible to the eye

The results of the physical data were also surprising: the

The degree of fatty liver was greatly reduced

Liver fibrosis scan values returned to normal levels

During the 100 days of sobriety, the powerful liver activated its own repair and regeneration functions, allowing the body to gradually return to normal.

Comparison of liver fibrosis scan values with significantly lower values

Apart from Jonathan, more and more people are experiencing the benefits of sobriety first hand.

Every year, the UK hosts an event called "Dry January". In just 30 days, many people have been rejuvenated.

The benefits of not drinking go far beyond that: improved concentration and memory, reduced depression and anxiety, and reduced cancer risk ......

It's the same old adage: alcohol, one drop is harmful.
Then don't drink it.
Finally, to give you a screenshot from the video.


You don't need alcohol to get happy

At the same dose, sidestream smoke may be more toxic than mainstream smoke, and 85% of the secondhand smoke we inhale is sidestream smoke.

Incomplete combustion of sidestream smoke, higher toxic gas content Just like firewood. When well ventilated, the fire burns fully and the air is cle
