Welcome to The Truth About Alcohol. I’m Lee Davy.
This podcast is for people who know something about their drinking doesn’t quite add up — and want to understand why stopping can feel so much harder than it should.
No labels. No judgement. No “rock bottom” stories required.
We talk about what alcohol really does to the body, brain, and nervous system, why cravings and rituals are so persistent, and why willpower isn’t the issue most people think it is. You’ll hear calm, honest conversations that reduce shame, make the confusion make sense, and help you see your next step more clearly — whether you’re still drinking, trying to stop, or have stopped but don’t feel settled.
If you’ve ever thought, “I’m intelligent, capable, and functional… so why can’t I just stop?” you’re in the right place.

Laure Boutrais-Lodge on Naturopathy

Laure is from Normandy in France and has been living in Cardiff for over twenty years with her family. She draws inspiration from Yoga, running, music and nature. She wanted to understand her own body better following recurring bladder infection and skin condition issues, and decided to start a qualification in Naturopathic Nutrition at the School of Naturopathic Nutrition in Cardiff. The course enabled her to improve her health and stamina. She discovered how to make water kefir, a sparkling natural probiotic drink, which was regularly enjoyed by friends and family. This was the start of Absorb! She is now distributing her drinks to the wider community both locally and throughout Wales. Absorb was founded in July 2017, just as Laure qualified as a Naturopath with the School of Naturopathic Nutrition. Absorb is here to supply people and gatherings with homemade water kefir and other products aimed to help with optimal absorption of nutrients. Understanding how our environment, lifestyle and what we eat ( biodiversity) can impact on the micro biodiversity within us and how it can affect not only our digestion but our immunity, mental health or even our weight. I saw Laure doing a talk on gut health during an event in Cardiff, and loved her enthusiasm and knowledge instantly, and that’s why I asked her to come on the show.
