Binge
drinkers beware! Guzzling
beer is better for
brain while quaffing
wine is a worry, a new
study has claimed.Researchers at the University of Gottigen in Germany have found that drinking wine damages the brain more than beer or spirits--wine actually shrinks the
hippocampus,the part of the brain responsible for memory and also the first brain area to be affected by Alzheimer''s disease.
According to them the average size of the hippocampus is 3.85
ml in non-alcoholics while in beer drinkers it is 3.4ml but in wine drinkers it is only 2.8ml.This is the first study investigating the impact of the type of preferred beverage on brain volume shrinkage in patients with alcohol dependence.
