NO MORE BOMBAY GIN –
April 11, 2026 – Frequently used in social settings, alcohol affects the body in ways that vary by individual. Not every metabolism is equally equipped to manage the physiological strain of regular consumption. In a conversation with Dr.Saxena, Rubina Dilaik explained why she decided to quit alcohol for good. “I used to enjoy the high, but my mood, my health and my mental awareness were so much affected. I completely gave up drinking. Teen din tak I used to have a bad headache, raat ko neend nahi aati thi (For 3 days, I used to have a bad headache, I could not sleep at night),” she admitted on her podcast Kisine Bataya Nahi. Dr Shuchin Bajaj, founder-director of Ujala Cygnus Group of Hospitals, factors such as personal health, individual circumstances, and potential family history of alcohol-related problems should be considered if you’re a regular drinker. “If someone is experiencing negative effects on their physical or mental health, relationships, or overall well-being due to alcohol, they may want to consider giving it up or seeking professional advice,” he said, adding that in such a situation, contemplating leaving alcohol permanently is imperative.
