An expert has named the age when people should completely abstain from drinking alcohol.
According to a professional neurologist, this should be done no later than the age of 65.
This was reported by The Mirror , citing Dr. Richard Restak.
An American neurologist who wrote the book "How to Prevent Dementia: An Expert's Guide to Long-Term Brain Health" was able to pinpoint the age when it's time to give up alcohol altogether.
The fact is that drinking alcohol is directly linked to the development of dementia.
And the older we get, the more vulnerable our brains become to the harmful effects of alcohol. It causes damage to the central nervous system and a reduction in white matter, which can lead to irreversible damage to the brain.
Therefore, the scientist found out that at the age of 65 and older, you should completely give up drinking any alcoholic beverages if you do not want to provoke the development of dementia.
Earlier it was reported that a doctor warned about the hidden dangers of white bread.
