Exploring the benefits of Dry January for older adults
We sit down with Michael Pessman, a gerontologist, to discuss the unique risks older adults face with alcohol consumption. We’ll explore the enhanced physical and mental health benefits of participating in Dry January, as well as the challenges of adopting new habits later in life. Join us as we dive deep into the importance of inclusive messaging in campaigns like Dry January and how we can support older adults in embracing a healthier lifestyle. We’ll provide insights on promoting sobriety across generations and fostering a sense of community for all ages.
Michael Pessman is a gerontologist.
He discusses the KevinMD article, “Dry January’s untold value for older adults: a health revolution beyond youth.”
