More than half of current drinkers have a family history of alcoholism.
Alcohol decreases activity in parts of the brain; this may partially explain the uninhibited behavior of an individual that has had "a few too many".
Studies suggest that the human brain continues to develop into a person's early 20's, and that exposure of the developing brain to alcohol may have long-lasting effects on intellectual capabilities.
In a study of teens, binge drinkers showed a number of little dings throughout their brains' white matter, indicating poor quality. And poor quality of the brain's white matter indicates poor, inefficient communication between brain cells.
