    Podcast Summary

    • Why Bedros Coolian Quit Drinking AlcoholRealizing the negative effects on body, sleep, and performance, Bedros Coolian chose to quit alcohol for better self-mastery.

      Bedros Coolian, the speaker, shared his personal experience of why he quit drinking alcohol despite not having any major incident that led him to do so. He realized that even as a casual drinker, the negative effects on his body and sleep were not worth it, especially as he was getting older. He also noticed that alcohol hindered his ability to perform optimally the next day and interfered with his digestion, leading to disrupted sleep. Coolian encourages everyone on their self-improvement journey to avoid actively poisoning themselves and instead focus on enhancing their self-mastery.

    • Experience improved focus and cognitive function with sobrietyGiving up alcohol can lead to better focus, cognitive function, work performance, fitness, and reduced health risks

      Giving up alcohol for a year can have significant positive impacts on various aspects of your life, including focus and cognitive function, physical health, and potentially even your long-term wellbeing. The speaker shares his personal experience of noticeably improved focus and cognitive function after just a few months of sobriety, as well as the research showing that alcohol can slow down cognitive function and even speed up the process of certain health issues like cancer. By avoiding alcohol, you may be able to enhance your work performance, improve your fitness, and reduce your risk for health problems. Ultimately, the decision to give up alcohol is a personal one, but the potential benefits make it worth considering.

    • Alcohol's Health Impact: Cancers, Heart Disease, and MoreChronic alcohol use can lead to various health issues, including cancers, heart disease, and kidney damage. Alcohol harms the liver and kidneys, impairing judgment and motor skills, and can cause amnesia over time.

      Chronic alcohol use can lead to various health issues, including cancers of the mouth, throat, esophagus, voice box, liver, colon, and rectum, as well as high blood pressure, heart disease, digestive problems, and kidney damage. Alcohol is harsh on the liver and kidneys, making it easier for the poison to enter the bloodstream, leading to impaired judgment, decision-making, and motor skills. Over time, heavy alcohol consumption can result in alcohol-induced amnesia, a form of natural amnesia or dementia. It's essential to remember that alcohol is a poison that our bodies try to eliminate, and the feeling we seek when we drink is the body's response to the poison.

    • Avoiding alcohol for self-mastery and optimal healthConsider avoiding alcohol for personal growth, family well-being, and improved health, as it can cause generational trauma, damage organs, and lead to conditions like alcoholic pneumonia.

      Making good decisions involves taking control of one's faculties and avoiding dependencies, including the prolonged use of alcohol. Alcohol, despite being legal, can cause significant damage, including generational trauma in families due to regrettable actions. Moreover, alcohol's impact on the body is extensive, affecting the heart, liver, kidneys, and lungs, potentially leading to conditions like alcoholic pneumonia. Ultimately, the decision to avoid alcohol is a personal one, but considering its potential negative effects, it's a choice worth considering for those seeking self-mastery and optimal health.

    • Alcohol's Effects on Brain and HealthAlcohol impairs brain function, causes permanent damage, negatively impacts reputation, increases stress hormones, and is a diuretic, leading to regrettable actions and overall health decline.

      Alcohol not only impairs your decision-making, judgment, and cognitive abilities in the moment, but it also causes permanent damage to your brain and negatively impacts your reputation and overall health. Alcohol passes the blood-brain barrier, leading to neuron reduction and impaired decision-making areas. Consuming alcohol can also increase stress hormones, leading to fat storage and muscle loss. Additionally, alcohol is a diuretic, dehydrating your body and pulling water and electrolytes from your bloodstream, leading to increased urination. These negative effects can result in regrettable actions and a damaged reputation. Overall, the cons of alcohol consumption far outweigh any potential benefits.

    • Alcohol hinders muscle recovery and growthAlcohol impairs muscle recovery, affects cognitive functions, and can take months to clear from the body, leading to improved health and well-being with abstinence.

      Alcohol interferes with the efficient process of muscle recovery and growth by slowing down the body's ability to utilize amino acids for rebuilding damaged muscles. This effect can occur even with moderate consumption, and the body may take several months to purge the alcohol-related toxins. The consequences of this impairment can extend beyond physical fitness to affect cognitive functions such as decision-making, focus, and memory. Despite the socially accepted norms, alcohol is a poison that negatively impacts the brain and body, leading to a decline in mood and mental clarity for days after consumption. By quitting alcohol, individuals can experience improved cognitive abilities, better sleep, and enhanced overall health and well-being.

    • Considering the potential harm of alcohol, consider supplements for better healthAlcohol may be legal but comes with potential harm, consider supplements like Trulene Wellness Shot for better health and immune system support.

      Alcohol may be legal, but it comes with no benefits and potential harm to one's health. The speaker shares his personal experience of giving up alcohol and turning to supplements like the Trulene Wellness Shot to improve immune system and fight inflammation. He warns that just because something is encouraged or legal, it doesn't necessarily have one's best interest at heart. He encourages listeners to make informed decisions for themselves and their families, considering the potential long-term effects on their health and the example they set for their children. The speaker also offers a discount for those interested in trying the Trulene Wellness Shot.

    • Consider the Benefits of Avoiding AlcoholAvoiding alcohol for a year can lead to improved relationships, business success, health, sleep, and cognitive functions.

      Avoiding alcohol can lead to numerous benefits in various aspects of life. The speaker shares his regret of modeling drinking behavior around his loved ones during their childhood and encourages them to consider quitting alcohol for a year before deciding whether to continue. He emphasizes that even small amounts of alcohol consumption have downsides, and studies funded by alcohol companies may not provide a complete picture of the risks. The benefits of alcohol are often overemphasized while the negatives are downplayed. The speaker suggests trying a year-long alcohol-free experiment and subscribing to his channel for more insights. In essence, the decision to avoid alcohol can lead to improved relationships, business success, health, sleep, and cognitive functions.

    DR. JOHN KELLY...ALCOHOL USE DISORDER AND RESEARCH SUPPORTING AA

    DR. JOHN KELLY...ALCOHOL USE DISORDER AND RESEARCH  SUPPORTING AA
    Worldwide, Alcohol Use Disorder kills 3.3 million people every year. It is the leading cause of death in working men around the world. Alcohol problems are responsible for 10 times the number of fatalities from all illicit drugs combined. Dr. John F. Kelly is a Professor of Psychiatry in Addiction Medicine at Harvard Medical School and Founder and Director of the Recovery Research Institute at the Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH). Dr. Kelly led the most rigorous scientific review of Alcoholics Anonymous performed to date. This review, published in the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, is based on 27 rigorous studies (21 RCT's) done over the past 25 years, involving over 10,000 participants, 150 scientists and 67 institutions. The review reveals that AA and Twelve Step Facilitation not only perform as well as other interventions like CBT and Motivational Enhancement Therapy (MET), but actually do better at helping many more people achieve sustained continuous abstinence and remission. AA and Twelve Step Facilitation produce increased rates and lengths of abstinence when compared to other common treatments. Dr. Kelly shares the research behind why AA is so successful and how AA tends to benefit men and women differently. He draws from decades of scientific research to address the following questions: On average, how long does it take to achieve one year of continuous sobriety? How long does it take to rewire the brain during abstinence, thereby reducing the risk of Alcohol Use Disorder to that of the general population? When talking to a person with Alcohol Use Disorder in early sobriety, how would you explain the changes in his brain? Dr. Kelly offers hope as he comments on the percentage of people with Alcohol Use Disorder who actually achieve full sustained remission. Dr. Kelly normalizes ambivalence and explains how Motivational Interviewing can help move a person toward readiness to change. He shares the 5 most important factors that predict successful long term recovery. Dr. Kelly speaks to the suffering of family members and offers helpful suggestions. We discuss collegiate recovery programs and other sober support networks, like Smart Recovery. You won't want to miss an hour with brilliant Dr. John F Kelly, a man who has dedicated his entire career to scientific research aimed at helping people affected by Alcohol Use Disorder and their families fully recover and reclaim their lives.
