If you're worried about dementia, complete abstinence from alcohol starting at age 65~~ It's an interesting article.. haha

 

Alcohol is harmful to health from the very first drop.Evidence is accumulating, especially regarding brain health. A world-renowned neurologist has identified a clear age at which one should definitely quit drinking.

Richard Restak, an American neuroscientist and neurologist, recommended becoming a complete teetotaler after the age of 65.

He described alcohol as a neurotoxin in books such as 'The Complete Guide to Memory: The Science of Strengthening Your Mind' and 'How To Prevent Dementia'.
He warned that even drinking one or two drinks every few weeks could accelerate age-related damage in our brain's nerve cells.

Quitting alcohol is essential during a life stage where preserving nerves is important. If you are over 65, it is strongly recommended to completely and permanently avoid alcohol.

Dr. Restak explained that at the age of 65, the risk of dementia increases fivefold for specific reasons, and thereafter, the risk increases every five years.
