What’s Better for Sleep: Wine or Tequila? (Ep. 22)
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Think a glass of wine or a shot of tequila helps you sleep?
Let’s break it down. In this episode, I’m walking you through what happens in your body when you drink at night from the 7 PM versus 9 PM timing, to the differences between wine, beer, and liquor, and why you keep jolting awake at 2 or 3 AM.
We’ll dig into the stress–sleep cycle, how alcohol impacts your sleep quality and what you can do tonight to finally get restorative rest.
