041526 ~ "Hang-Xiety" - Dr. Peter Graham

April 15, 2026 ~ Lucy Ann Lance is joined by Dr. Peter Graham, Vice President of Clinical Partnerships and Associate Chief Medical Officer at Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan for this week's A Healthier Michigan! Dr. Graham explains “hang-xiety,” a blend of hangover and anxiety. Alcohol initially calms the brain, but the body adapts, leading to increased anxiety as the alcohol wears off. For relief, drink less or stop drinking. Stay hydrated and practice good sleep habits, exercise, and mindfulness.
