A common myth of alcohol consumption is that it helps with sleep. 🍷💤 While alcohol may help some fall asleep faster and easier, the overall quality of that sleep decreases significantly. Additionally, alcohol has been known to worsen symptoms of existing sleep disorders such as sleep apnea and insomnia. Avoid consuming alcohol in the evening to promote healthy sleep! #Alcohol #SleepHygiene #Insomnia #SleepApnea
