Alcohol & The Hormonal Hangover

Alcohol & The Hormonal Hangover

Let’s talk about the hormonal chaos that follows every big night out (or week, or decade).

Alcohol is a biochemical wrecking ball. It spikes cortisol (your stress hormone), suppresses testosterone, scrambles oestrogen metabolism, and confuses your thyroid. Your liver — the hero of your hormonal orchestra — becomes so busy processing ethanol that it forgets how to balance your hormones, clean your blood, or break down toxins.

That’s why, after a night (or a few years) of “relaxing with a drink,” you feel flat, anxious, puffy, foggy, and inflamed. Your gut lining weakens. Your sleep quality tanks. Your dopamine and serotonin crash — and then the mind whispers, “just one more to feel normal again.”
That’s the cruel joke of alcohol: the hair of the dog that bit you is also the hand that keeps you sick.

Here’s the truth — you’re not weak. You’re human. Alcohol hijacks your hormones, your brain chemistry, and your self-compassion. But your body can heal.

That’s where Zeo Body Detox comes in — my daily repair ritual and post-alcohol lifeline. Australian micronised zeolite and organic coconut charcoal act like cellular magnets — binding to the toxic residues and heavy metals alcohol leaves behind. They lighten the load on your liver, reduce inflammation, and help restore your hormonal rhythm and mental clarity.

Because detoxing is forgiveness.
And forgiveness, like recovery, starts one choice at a time.
