What is Dry January?

Dry January is a chance to have no hangovers, reduce the waistline, and save some serious money by giving up alcohol for up to 31 days.

Regularly drinking more than 14 units a week risks damaging your health.  Fourteen units is equivalent to six pints of average-strength beer or 10 small glasses of low-strength wine.  

The benefits of reducing your alcohol intake mean:

• You feel healthier.
• You sleep better.
• Your skin improves. 
• You lose weight. 
• You save money.
• You will feel an amazing sense of achievement.

The type of illnesses you can develop after 10 to 20 years of regularly drinking more than 14 units a week include, cancers of the mouth, throat and breast, stroke, heart and liver disease, damage to the brain and to the nervous system.  

The effects of alcohol on your health will depend on how much you drink. The less you drink, the lower the health risks.
