137 - The Hard Truth About Alcohol With ...

Cut The Crap With Beth And Matt
About this episode

Alcohol. A polarizing word in itself. Everyone has an alcohol related story, even if you've never personally drank. This week we are talking with Danny Matranga, CSCS, BSc about the impact of alcohol on our health.

Alcohol is so ingrained in our society that simply mentioning the harmful effects it has on our health can start an all out war in the comments section of any video.

Today we aim to give you the unbiased truth about alcohol and the role it plays in your life. We aren't here to tell you whether to drink or not, we want you to be educated on the topic so you can make your own decision. So let's get into it!
