relaxing, it could worsen your in-flight experience. 99 00:08:23,920 --> 00:08:29,960 New research shows that alcohol compounds high-altitude effects, straining the cardiovascular 100 00:08:29,960 --> 00:08:36,000 system, reducing blood oxygen levels, and impairing sleep quality. 101 00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:42,160 Why not just avoid drinking it in a situation that is already stressful for the body? 102 00:08:42,160 --> 00:08:48,440 Experts advise limiting alcohol consumption, pairing it with food, and staying hydrated. 103 00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:55,000 Remember, even moderate drinking can disrupt sleep and heighten anxiety during flights. 104 00:08:55,000 --> 00:09:04,840 And in entertainment news, a first peek at Brad Pitt's new movie, titled F1, reveals 105 00:09:04,840 -->

00:09:19,520 rather than a critical view of the multibillion-dollar industry. 108 00:09:19,520 --> 00:09:24,720 Directed by Joseph Kosinski and produced by Jerry Bruckheimer, the film features Pitt 109 00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:31,280 as a retired racer and Dancin Idris as an up-and-coming driver, both trained by Formula 110 00:09:31,280 --> 00:09:34,240 1 legend Lewis Hamilton. 111 00:09:34,240
