Alcohol and Weight Management

How alcohol affects calorie intake, fat burning, and weight loss progress.

Alcohol contains empty calories and can slow your body's ability to burn fat. It also lowers willpower, making it harder to stick to healthy food choices. Even moderate drinking can stall weight loss progress.

Alcohol provides 7 kcal per gram and suppresses lipid oxidation, while its disinhibiting effects can lead to increased caloric intake. Chronic alcohol consumption is associated with abdominal obesity and metabolic dysfunction.

Reducing or eliminating alcohol can remove a significant hidden source of calories and improve the results of your weight management efforts with NuLifeCare Singapore.
