1-MIN LESSON • EVENING DRINKS & SLEEP
Why does a drink close to bedtime wake you up in the middle of the night?
A practical DrLina health cue exploring how alcohol disrupts the second half of sleep.
01The Science (Physiological Mechanism)
While alcohol may make you feel sleepy at first, your liver breaks it down within a few hours, causing a sudden rise in body temperature, sweating, and frequent awakenings after midnight.
02The Actionable Rule & Biometric Benchmark
“Leave a 3-hour buffer between your last drink and bedtime, and pair each drink with a glass of water to give your body time to process it before sleep.”
03Daily Practice (1-Minute Protocol)
Finish your last evening drink at least 3 hours before turning in tonight and have a glass of water.
