Picture this: you’re at the beach. It’s the height of summer. You go from your towel to the bar, grab a few snacks, and of course, you need an ice-cold pint to wash it all down. So you order your beer of choice, and finally, it feels like a real vacation.

But what if we told you that, once you reach a certain age, drinking beer and alcohol in general could actually be putting your cognitive health at risk? And it’s not just us saying that. Experts have recently warned that, for people in a certain age group, regularly enjoying your favorite ale can have serious consequences, and today, let’s explore what they’ve said on the subject.

Due to this deterioration of neurons and nerve cells, professionals recommend protecting the ones we still have left

According to Dr. Restak, everyone should consider cutting alcohol out of their diet by the time they reach 65 years old. And that means all alcohol, not just beer — although we all know beer is the drink of choice for many people. The reason he singles out this age is that, by the time you turn 65, many of your nerve cells have already been permanently lost.

This means you have far fewer neurons than you did when you were younger, and your cognitive functions become more limited. So, what does alcohol have to do with our neurons? Well, experts warn that alcohol is a weak neurotoxin. In other words, it directly damages neuronal structures, particularly dendrites (or branches), while also preventing new ones from growing.
