During the so-called “Dry January” of last year, 41% of surveyed US adults — perhaps not Giants or Jets fans who have every valid excuse imaginable to hit the bottle — planned to not drink during 2023’s first month. But sticking to such a parching resolution is often like admirably trying to hit the gym come the new year, which research confirms commonly falls short for many. The spirit is willing, but the flesh needs a cold one on the couch as only 16% of Americans stick through Dry January, the same study noted. However, for 2024, experts are optimistic about a little more dedication. A University of Sussex study found that 71% of those who embarked on Dry January reported better sleep, 67% said they were more energetic, 58% reported weight loss and 54% boasted better skin.
