Episode description
It's just a fact: alcohol has calories.
During the holidays, alcoholic drinks can flow freely. Festive drinks are as much a part of holiday fun and tradition as the delicious food; but the calories can add up just as fast.
And, if you think you're making a smart choice by using diet soda in your rum and coke, think again. Substituting diet for regular really doesn't cut many calories in the end.
Fortunately, there are ways to cut some calories without ruining your party atmosphere.
Listen in as Jennifer Sacheck, PhD, discusses how to prevent drinking too many calories during your holiday activities.
