Headline: Alcohol: How it can affect your sleep cycle
Caption: ***DIGITAL USE ONLY*** While it may be true that you can fall into a deeper sleep after drinking alcohol, you are unlikely to wake up feeling energised or refreshed. "Despite the misconception that alcohol aids sleep, research reveals its detrimental impact, with just one drink decreasing sleep quality by 10%, and multiple drinks exacerbating the decline significantly (by over 40%)," explains sleep health expert and founder of Ten PM, Dan Fabian. "As alcohol is consumed it is rapidly absorbed into the bloodstream until it can be metabolised by the liver at the rate of about one drink per hour."
