Beyond the Buzz: Supporting Your Body When You Drink Alcohol
We get it—life comes with champagne toasts, happy hour margaritas, wine night with friends. At Sol, we’re not here to judge. But we are here to educate and support you in living your best life with balance. So let’s talk about alcohol and your body… and how to care for yourself when you indulge.
🍷 How Alcohol Affects Your Health (Beyond the Hangover)
Drinking—even occasionally—impacts more than just your morning-after motivation. It can disrupt everything from skin health to sleep, nutrient absorption, metabolism, and liver function. Some of the biggest long-term effects include:
Dehydration & Electrolyte Imbalance
Alcohol is a diuretic, meaning it pulls fluids out of your body and flushes out essential minerals like magnesium, potassium, and sodium.Liver Overload
Your liver works hard to detox alcohol. With frequent drinking, it gets stressed—and less efficient at breaking down toxins.Oxidative Stress & Inflammation
Alcohol increases oxidative stress and triggers inflammation, which can age your skin and mess with your immune system.Nutrient Depletion
Alcohol blocks absorption of B-vitamins, Vitamin C, zinc, and more—nutrients your body needs to heal, energize, and glow.
💉 How We Can Support You at Sol
Whether you’re a social sipper or a wine-with-dinner regular, there are ways to offset the wear and tear—without ditching your lifestyle completely. That’s where smart wellness support comes in:
🧪 IV Therapy for Recovery & Restoration
After-party fix or proactive support? Either way, IV therapy is your hydration hero.
Our blends (like NAD+ Gold or Detox Drip) include B-complex, glutathione, electrolytes, magnesium, and more to:
Replenish lost nutrients
Support liver detox
Reduce inflammation
Re-energize fast
🔬 Red Light Therapy
Alcohol-induced inflammation doesn’t just affect your liver—it shows up in your skin.
Red light helps calm that internal chaos by boosting ATP (cellular energy) and reducing oxidative stress.
💊 Smart Supplement Protocols
A few supplements that we carry here at Sol Medical Wellness & Aesthetics.
Want to take care of your body at home? We recommend:
NAD+ precursors (like NMN or NR) to support energy and brain clarity
Milk thistle + NAC for liver support
Magnesium + B-Complex for stress, sleep, and recovery
🍸 Can You "Drink Healthier?" Kind of.
If you’re going to drink, do it with intention:
Hydrate well before and after
Avoid sugary mixers (they spike blood sugar + inflammation)
Support your body with IVs or supplements within 24 hours
Space it out—give your body a few "off" days each week
Don’t skip sleep or meals when you drink—those amplify the damage
🌺 The Sol Approach: Balance Over Burnout
