I gave up alcohol a couple of years ago because it seemed pointless to continue the habit of having a couple of beers each day. Now, I strongly dislike the taste of alcohol, and the technology for making very good non-alcoholic beer has advanced considerably. So, no loss! Other than not feeling loagy in the evening, I can’t say that I notice a great difference, although I have no doubt that stopping consumption of alcohol has been beneficial. At my age, anything to keep sharp witted!
