Summary

Alcohol is the most socially acceptable drug on the market and the most accessible for almost anyone, regardless of age. Three-quarters of all adults drink. If you are listening to this book, it is highly likely that you want to cut back on your drinking. Why do you think you drink too much? Your health, your family, your finances. How much is too much? Even reducing your alcohol intake by half can lead to improvements in your health, finances, and livelihood. 

How to Control Your Alcohol Consumption is not about quitting drinking. Instead, this book presents the facts about alcohol, its effects on the body, and its addictive properties, as well as tips and tricks to help you cut back on the amount you are drinking and methods to negate some withdrawal effects. Alcohol does not have to control you any longer. Decreasing your regular intake will give you back control and allow you to reclaim your life.

A Brilliant Worthwhile Listen

For the sake of transparency I have already read the book and that was excellent. Then when I heard the author was given free audible codes for it I snapped one up. Listening to it I felt was more enlightening than actually reading it and the narrator had a very calm voice which I felt was ideal for the subject matter. Alcoholics and non alcoholics I feel would benefit from the wisdom imparted in this audiobook.

Some very useful insights

I received a free copy of this audiobook in exchange for an unbiased review.

Overall a well written book which contains some very useful and insightful information. It's laid out in a logical fashion and takes the listener through the various steps involved in order to give them the tools to reduce, or cease completely, their consumption of alcohol.

I was not a fan of the narration. Tom Brooks sounded very robotic to me and he mis-prononounced a few words. It doesn't spoil the book completely, but made it harder to keep wanting to listen.

Very informative

A well written book full of information that can help towards reducing the amount of alcohol consumed. There is a wealth of information packed into this short book and its great that the author gently encourages you reduce your intake rather than pushing a cold turkey approach to completely stop. I'd definitely recommend a read

A new vision for you

I firmly believe this book is the BEST start for understanding why you should quit intoxicants altogether in your life. It does require your understanding that your personal adjustment to life without it is going to take time, be challenging in a world that revolves around alcohol, and physically and mentally be a huge change in your life. It's easier said than done, but this book gives a massive push and motivation to not give up.

A fascinating & informative book!


This book is a must read for all who like to enjoy drinking alcohol and especially those who are not sure about the facts regarding alcohol. In my opinion all coming of age teens should hear these facts before consuming alcohol. The author very clearly sets out the facts regarding alcohol and effects. Furthermore, the author presents the facts about addictive properties of alcohol and how to quit or be more responsible when consuming it. This book is easy to listen to, clear to follow and could change your life for the better.

Situation and boundary wisdom

This book has lots of wisdom on how to manage situations, boundaries, suggestions to change behaviour to help cut back drinking, and some compelling reasons why.

I'm not a drinker (have never liked the taste of alcohol much and medication prevents me from drinking more recently) BUT I could easily replace cutting back drinking to cutting back sugar/soft drinks/unhealthy food and still find this book helpful for managing situations and boundaries and how to communicate to others what I need to live a healthier life.

So, if you are curious about your relationship with alcohol this is a good place to start, and if you're a friend or relative of someone who is struggling, this is a great book to understand more and how to be supportive.

In addition, as I listened on Audible, the narrator is clear and easy to understand and for me personally I turned up the pace on the listening speed to 1.20 and it was just right. Thank you.

I found this book informative and well written.

How To Control Your Addiction To Alcohol. By Jason Newman.
You don’t have to have a drink problem to enjoy this book. I listened to the Audible version and found it most informative. I found the science behind the writing to be well researched and well thought out.
You might find it useful if someone you know is having problems. Although the book is primarily about alcohol, it does touch on all sorts of addiction and addictive personality. I would definitely recommend it for people with a genuine interest in the subject.
I also found the production of the Audio book to be of a high standard
