fully agree with her - subsidy of alcohol in parliamement is wrong - read this article we wrote 8 years ago . @Drug_Science journals.sagepub.com/doi/ful… . .
We are in stuck in an affordability crisis with people struggling to pay for food and heating. But MPs think it's funny to drink at a discount on the taxpayer and vote on crucial issues. It's wrong.

Ben has severe epilepsy and used to have up to 300 seizures a day.
A medicine changed his life. But his family still have to pay for it privately every month because there’s no NHS access.
That’s not right.
There’s a petition that needs 100,000 signatures just to get a debate in Parliament.
Just a debate.
Please sign it, share it, send it to everyone you know, let’s make some noise 📷

Tragic story. There’s paltry regulation on alcohol sales in delivery apps like Uber Eats, Deliveroo, and Just Eat. No safeguarding. No meaningful purchase limits, no flagging of extreme repeat orders. Vulnerable users can have alcohol delivered to their door 24/7. Even gambling apps have these kinds of safeguards! Why don’t delivery apps?
Clinicians: UCL and Drug Science invite you to contribute to a controlled exploration of MDMA’s psychological effects. Eligible participants will undergo two medically supervised sessions at UCL.

What does safe psychedelic therapy actually look like in practice?
@ProfDavidNutt speaks to writer Erica Rex about her experiences with psychedelic-assisted therapy, the safeguards these treatments require, and how mental health care could better address complex trauma.

Sentia Gold is excellent! You get the warmer bodily feeling and de-tensing that comes with GABA activation, but without the intoxication.
There's now a viable alcohol substitute on the market. Definitely recommended!
It’s exciting to see functional drinks gaining momentum.
For years I’ve studied alcohol’s effects on the brain, now we’re applying that science to build better alternatives.
I'm delighted that the first functional cider is now available - so far just in the UK! sentiaspirits.com/products/g…
