KEY POINTS

On ‘Psychology Behind the Headlines,’ hosts Jessica Reyes, Patricia Wu, and guest Dr. Cortina Peters discuss that beer and spirits are linked to higher levels of unhealthy fat, while red wine drinkers might actually experience some health benefits.

Your Body, Your Response

Everyone metabolizes alcohol differently. Factors like body composition play a role in how much we’re affected.

Drink Amounts Matter

It’s important to understand that the study compared different drinks in standard serving amounts. Two glasses of wine will have a different effect than two cocktails or beers.

Moderation is Key

Regardless of what you choose to drink, Dr. Cortina stresses that moderation is crucial for both your physical and mental health.
