Alcohol is omnipresent in our society. Birthday parties, after-work, restaurant visits, New Year's Eve parties - wherever people come together in a relaxed atmosphere, alcohol flows. But we also like to treat ourselves to a drink alone. As long as we adhere to social norms, alcohol consumption is not only tolerated in our society, but expected.

For some it is a drug, for others it is a luxury product and an integral part of our culture. However, consumption poses significant risks, especially for women, which are often trivialized in our alcohol-loving society. On this page I would like to provide information that will enable you to make responsible decisions about the use of alcohol. I write my blog from the perspective of a doctor, a consumer and an observer.
