Mind if I send that to my son? Him and a few other guys are drinking and playing poker while the girls are at the Worlds Largest Disco here in beautiful broke downtown Buffalo. Since they are also babysitting four kids I think they may be indulging!!

Excess use in alcohol may not KILL brain cells, but it certainly maims them severely. Just talk to someone who has lived with an alcoholic. Doesn't sound like much fun to me.

Isn't excessive or binge drinking linked to some forms of early onset Parkinson's? I read that in a tabloid (I know, great source!). It was a story about a young celebrity with the disease.

Alcohol may not kill brain cells per se

Alcohol kills brain cells?

Well, I just did a post on my blog about all the stuff that kills brain cells...(I did a search of only the BBC web site)...and this is what I found:

Obesity kills brain cells...cell phones kill brain cells...cocaine kills brain cells...jet lag kills brain cells...

Etc. Etc...

It's a wonder that anyone has any brain cells left...

The developing brain is particularly vulnerable, some studies show, putting teenagers and unborn children at greatest risk.

I guess I shouldn't have started drinking at 13.

I think alcohol in moderation can be very good for most people.

Everything in moderation, I say...

Including moderation.
