Laguna 2nd district Rep. Ruth Mariano-Hernandez's holiday celebration tip to her Facebook followers is timely, sensible, and overall just a smart piece of advice.
According to the lady solon, holiday revelers should cut down on liquor consumption if they want to enjoy these precious moments with the people who truly matter.
"Sa ating mga selebrasyon ngayong kapaskuhan, kung ating kaya ay iwasan natin ang sobrang pag-inom ng mga alcoholic beverages (For our celebrations this Chirstmas, may we please avoid the consumption of too much alcoholic beverages, if we can)," Hernandez said in a recent Facebook post.
"Maaari rin naman na uminom nang katamtaman lamang at huwag sosobra upang ating maenjoy ang oras kasama ang ating mga mahal sa buhay (If it's possible, just drink moderately and not excessively so that you'll still be able to enjoy the company of your loved ones)," she noted.
The news card that came with her post also stated that avoiding alcohol consumption would boost one's safety.
She said that having too much booze tends to weaken the immune system, which isn't good since one might contract Covid-19.
