In a 30-year study—the Whitehall II Imaging Study28—which involved over 500 people having their brains scanned and their drinking histories taken, there were increased odds of hippocampal atrophy in those drinking up to 10 drinks weekly, and faster cognitive decline in those drinking up to five drinks weekly. The conclusion? Alcohol consumption, even at moderate levels, is associated with adverse brain outcomes.
