Denzel Washington's Journey to Sobriety and Health

Denzel Washington has opened up about his decade-long sobriety journey, revealing that he quit alcohol at 60 after a 15-year period of heavy wine consumption. Despite never becoming 'strung out' on alcohol or drugs, Washington would regularly consume up to two $4,000 bottles of wine a day, driven by his access to a 10,000-bottle wine cellar he installed in 1999. He credits his sobriety to a personal decision and the support of his family and friends, including Lenny Kravitz, who introduced him to a personal trainer. Washington's sobriety has led him to embrace healthier lifestyle habits as he approaches his 70th birthday. He reflected on the damage alcohol did to his body and his resolve to focus on future endeavors and enjoying the next chapter of his life. This openness highlights a transformation from indulgence to a commitment to health and longevity.
