April 20, 2023 – “It can create some accountability and a lot of support if you have millions of followers that are joining you and celebrating you along the way,” Wandzilak said of the benefits of a person sharing their sobriety publicly. “And it actually provides a lot of encouragement.”
Hadid, who was recently named to Time Magazine’s 100 most influential people list for 2023, is also no stranger to the nonalcoholic beverage trend. The supermodel is a partner and co-founder of the nonalcoholic beverage company Kin Euphorics.
Hadid told InStyle that before joining the company in 2021, she would regularly use Kin’s products to help “calm” her brain.
“I don’t feel the need [to drink alcohol] because I know how it will affect me at 3 in the morning when I wake up with horrible anxiety thinking about that one thing I said five years ago when I graduated high school,” Hadid told InStyle.
In addition to the mental health benefits of sobriety Hadid says she experienced, recent research has shown that drinking just a daily serving of alcohol of less than 1 ounce for women and around 1.5 ounces for men increased the risk of death.
