This Is What Happens to Your Brain After Abstaining from Alcohol for 2 Months
If you’re considering taking a break from drinking or if you’re trying to quit drinking entirely, you may be surprised to learn what will happen to your brain when you say “no” to alcohol.
According to the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism, overuse and misuse of alcohol refers to heavy drinking or binge drinking. Binge drinking is when you drink five or more drinks in the same timeframe if you’re a man and four or more drinks if you’re a woman.
Heavy drinking is when a man drinks more than four drinks at any given day and has more than 14 drinks every week. For women, those who drink heavily have more than three drinks on any day or more than seven drinks every week.
