I stopped drinking entirely for about 4 years due to stomach pain caused by acid. Pain is a fantastic motivator for stopping doing something - physical pain is of course the most obvious. It eventually cleared up and I've started to enjoy the occasional drink.
I didn't notice a single benefit to not drinking, but I only have one and done. An arguable upside is it stops me snacking. I imagine the problem isn't alcohol as such, but going over the top. Someone at work says it's impossible for them to just have "one drink" because it leads to more, and if that's the case, I imagine going teetotal will yield bigger benefits.
