We turn a blind eye to the known harms of alcohol...the answer to alcohol was not trying to find things to reduce the harms but to actually just replace it.
What if you could get the relaxing effects of alcohol without the hangover or health risks? In this eye-opening episode of Tribe Sober, Janet sits down with Professor David Nutt, a former government scientist who made waves with his research on the harms of various drugs. Professor Nutt was famously dismissed by the UK government for reporting that ecstasy and LSD were less dangerous than alcohol.
His landmark study published in The Lancet even ranked alcohol as more harmful to society than heroin and crack. Since then, he's been at the forefront of drug science, leading groundbreaking research into alcohol, cannabis, and psychedelics. But the real buzz in this episode is Sentia, a new drink developed by Professor Nutt and his team. Sentia aims to mimic the relaxing effects of alcohol without any of the negative consequences. How does it work?
The secret lies in a blend of botanicals that enhance the activity of GABA, a neurotransmitter that plays a key role in relaxation. Janet and Professor Nutt dive deep into the science behind Sentia, discussing how it affects the brain and why it could be a game-changer for those looking to cut down on or eliminate alcohol.
Professor Nutt also touches on the dangers of drinking more than a couple of glasses of alcohol and the risks associated with using alcohol to treat mental health issues. Whether you're sober-curious or already on your sobriety journey, this episode offers valuable insights into a potential alternative to alcohol that doesn't compromise your health or well-being. Tune in to discover if Sentia could be the solution you've been looking for to enjoy social occasions without the drawbacks of alcohol.
