You are willingly consuming poison every time you take a drink.

I talk to so many moms who are so health-conscious. They watch what they put into their bodies, but they give a free pass when it comes to alcohol.

They eat organic and nutritious foods all day long, workout, and then drink wine at night.

All the hard work you're doing by eating nutritious foods and working out is negated by the fact that you have a glass or bottle of wine every night. Because who just stops at one 5oz glass of wine? I never did.

So you're not only drinking a poison but also a calorie-laden substance. This is also why it's not a coincidence that many of us will gain weight when we drink because we first are consuming all these unnecessary calories, and then we let our guard down and may eat foods that aren't necessarily the best for us either.

I was having a 1:1 conversation with a client the other day, and we were talking about swaps to her nightly wine habit. She said she has a fridge stocked with seltzers, Martinelli's, and a few other nonalcoholic options. As we were discussing this, she goes, "how crazy does this sound, I won't allow myself to drink the Martinelli's because of all the sugar it has in it."

See how we talk ourselves into the wine? But you're really talking yourself into the wine not for the taste or that it's the healthier option it's because you want the temporary relief it provides.

We conveniently forget that wine has loads of sugar in it, plus it's a poison. So which would you choose, Martinelli's or wine? I'll take the beverage that's not a cancer-causing toxin, please.
