enough of it does

I dont know what everyone is so butthurt over your comment. You are clearly in the right here. It's not even a matter of opinion. You clearly listed three credible sources that back your statement! I just wish some people would actually look into these things before throwing their opinions out there and expecting their opposition to just accept it as fact.

Alcohol does kill brain cells

However the fear of becoming stupid from drinking is based on the myth that your body doesn't replace lost brain cells, which it does

As long as you don't drink too often your brain has enough time to recover without any negative side effects

something something ganglea? something something complete,

That comment was so bad, i think you gave me cancer.

Like, cmon now, belief about becoming stupid isn't going to impede neural regeneration.

I'm fully aware placebo and biofeedback are actual things, but that's just ridiculous.

pretty sure that drinking just disrupts neural pathways, doesn't actually kill BCs. ill go look into this more, get back to ya

ok i found a thing.

"When this alcohol reaches the brain, it doesn’t kill the cells. What it does is inhibit the communication between dendrites, or branching connections at the ends of neurons that send and receive information between neurons, in the cerebellum, a part of the brain involved in motor coordination. This poor communication results in some of the typical impairments of intoxication.

Researchers at Washington University in St. Louis found that alcohol, even when applied directly to neurons, didn’t kill them. It just interfered with the way they transmit information. Specifically, the researchers showed that alcohol causes certain receptors on neurons to manufacture steroids that inhibit memory formation. "

what annoys me the most is when you first start to feel the affects of a drink, and you know its happening because words and names just fall out of your head. I once had a chat about family with a girl at a party,and the whole time i couldn't remember my own brothers fucking names

obviously it drowns them, its like you didn't even look at the comic
