Alcohol, even in small quantities, can disrupt normal heart rhythms (e.g., atrial fibrillation) and interfere with deep sleep.
Excessive alcohol consumption at night puts additional stress on the cardiovascular system, potentially triggering a heart attack in vulnerable individuals.
Risks:
Chronic use increases the likelihood of long-term damage to the heart and other vital organs.
Recommendations for Nighttime Drinks:
Water: Hydrates without any adverse effects.
Herbal Teas: Chamomile or peppermint can promote relaxation and better sleep.
Warm Milk: Contains tryptophan, which helps improve sleep quality.
