Wait so the group who consumed less alcohol had higher rates of MCI? Did a read it wrong? I was literally just talking to a Dr friend whose specialty is geriatric care and one of the first things she recommends to patients experiencing early cognitive symptoms is cut out alcohol, since…neurotoxin. The brain as one ages processes alcohol less effectively, to boot, and she’s seen distinct improvement in her patients based on that habit change alone.
