Neuroscientist Andrew Huberman just dropped a truth bomb: while alcohol might calm you in the moment, it actually ramps up your stress and anxiety when you’re not drinking. Turns out, regular drinking can boost your baseline cortisol (the stress hormone), making your everyday stress worse. Huberman isn’t anti-alcohol, but he says those nightly drinks might be doing the opposite of what you want long-term. Mind = blown! #Health #BodyHealth #AndrewHuberman
