Dear ${customer.firstName},

With Labor Day festivities around the corner, I was thinking of one thing that never changes no matter what season or holiday it is - alcohol. Think of any holiday and alcohol is always part of the picture.

Here we talk a lot about the digestion and metabolism of nutrients we put into our body.
What can be said of alcohol, though? Find out more about alcohol, its affects on our nutrition and even our athletic performance in this month's issue of EnergyFirst's newsletter.

Enjoy the final weeks of summer,
