Alcohol is a source of empty calories. Not only does alcohol have a detrimental effect on every part of the body, but it also has a strong correlation with obesity.
Ever thought about how that glass of wine or pint of beer might be affecting your waistline? In this eye-opening episode of Tribe Sober, host Janet Gourand chats with Dr. Avishkar Sabharwal, an expert in obesity and lifestyle medicine. Dr. Sabharwal, who has personally battled obesity, dives into the relationship between alcohol and weight gain, explaining how alcohol contributes empty calories that can sabotage your health goals.
He also touches on the psychological aspects of both weight management and alcohol dependence, emphasizing the crucial role of mindset in tackling these issues. Dr. Sabharwal doesn't just stop at the science; he offers practical advice on managing weight, such as incorporating meal replacements and intermittent fasting into your routine. He highlights the importance of accountability and social support, drawing parallels between overcoming obesity and quitting alcohol.
The episode also explores how modern diets are filled with 'non-foods'—nutrient-deficient items that act on our addictive pathways much like alcohol does. If you're looking to understand how your drinking habits might be impacting your weight, or if you're seeking practical tips to improve your lifestyle, this episode is a must-listen. With a blend of scientific insights and actionable advice, Dr. Sabharwal provides a comprehensive look at how to get your life back on track.
