If you're worried about dementia, you should definitely quit drinking alcohol starting at this age.

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.

I'm curious about why you're specifically saying you're 65... haha

    치매가 걱정되는 나이이지요 
    조심해서 나쁠건 없는거 같아요
    음주가무를 즐기는 시대인데 
    개인의 건강 상태 고려해서 드시면 좋을 것 같습니다

    술은 역시 몸에 해롭네요.
    더 이른 나이에도 금주하면
    몸에 더 좋을 것 같아요.
