Dear MEL Topic Readers, 
Alcohol is not good for us. 5 tips to stay safe(r) if you drink
In some cultures, people tend to engage in festive occasions with friends, colleagues, relatives, or neighbors this time of year. Alcohol drinks are often perceived as a social lubricant in some cultures just like tea and special meals are in other cultures. Indeed, alcoholic drinks have pharmacological and physical effects on reaction time, motor coordination, and judgment. They also psychologically affect people’s mindset. When people consume or think they’ve drunk some alcoholic drinks, they tend to feel relaxed, become less guarded, and open up to others. But when you do drink, you may want to remember some tips to reduce the harm caused by alcohol, such as hangovers and accidents. For example, eat before or while drinking to slow the absorption of alcohol. Also, remember bubbly drinks like sparkling wine or carbonated beverages are more quickly absorbed. And there are some more tips to drink smartly if you do.
Read the article and learn the tips to enjoy the festive season.
