My Shrinking Brain

A study was recently released analyzing drinking habits and brain size.  

Overall, the more alcohol consumed, the smaller the brain volume, with abstainers having a higher brain volume than former drinkers, light drinkers (one to seven drinks per week), moderate drinkers (eight to 14 drinks per week), and heavy drinkers (14 or more drinks per week).

At first I was concerned and started reading a few other media reports on the study.  Of all the reports, I was most comforted by CNN’s multi-angled approach.

“We’re talking very small differences here,” says Dr. Garbutt, who was not involved in the study. “We’re not seeing 10 to 20 percent shrinkage.”
