A brand new 2025 Brown University review analysed 16 studies with over 150,000 participants and found that just 31 days without alcohol creates measurable improvements in liver function, sleep, mood, brain health, and blood pressure.
Participants who completed Dry January reported:
- Better sleep
- Improved mood
- Weight loss
- Healthier liver function
- Lower blood pressure
- Better concentration
- More energy
Most importantly, the majority continued drinking less even after January ended.
Even a short break from alcohol allows your body to heal and reset. Are you going to try Dry January?
