About this listen

World-renowned Professor of Neuropsychopharmacology, David Nutt - breaks down the science and effect of alcohol on our health, mood, sleep, productivity, how it travels through our bodies and brains - and explains on a practical level how we can make changes to positively impact our relationship with it and understanding of it; thereby improving our quality of life for the long-term.

He will examine what the future holds for this normalised drug that governs our society and lives but is becoming increasingly unpopular due to its detrimental impact on our wellbeing. Booze Control will do what Matthew Walker did for Sleep and Giulia Enders did for our Gut - and help us make informed choices, at the very least. David will illuminate our minds on this important and timely subject.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Amazing, fair and objective. Please Read.

This book is for anyone that drinks any amount. It fairly lays all the facts and statistics out on the table and let’s you make your own decisions surrounding the safety of alcohol.

It has definitely changed the way I look at alcohol, moving my opinion from it being something we drink to something we use.

What a fantastic book

Thank you David.
This is the most comprehensive book on the harm that alcohol does to people and it’s all based on medical facts and not beliefs.
I highly recommend this book to everyone that wants to live a longer and happier life.

Balanced and Objective Views on Alcohol

Highly recommended, it has some shocking information every one who drinks should be aware of

Governments are aware and conceal the extent of alcohol damage so they can make money on taxes and save on pensions, wow

This is not a book to read if you are already struggling with alcohol

Very medical model which seems to be written from ‘the outside in’ by someone who understands the science of addiction and the public health implications but does not provide effective assistance to someone already dealing with alcohol addiction. There are So many other books that help people to get sober. I would summarise this one’s message as ‘alcohol is addictive and is bad for you and for society, so make a logical choice not to over do it!’ It misses a great opportunity to really explain the true nature of alcohol addiction from a person’s lived experience (versus a statistical one). The implication for anyone already addicted is ‘go and see your medical professional’, because of course they will be able to help you, lol.
