We all have heard that a glass of wine a day may be beneficial to your health, and we all know that excess drinking is never good, but did you know that research shows that alcohol may actually affect your skin too?
A study conducted at the University of Berlin shows that drinking straight alcohol with no mixers significantly reduces the level of protective antioxidants in the skin, leading to faster sun burning. Consuming antioxidant-rich foods, like fruits, or drinking alcohol with a mixer like orange juice, does help mitigate this effect somewhat. More research is obviously needed on this topic, but the news is interesting, right??
