Even people who never exceed the recommended limits for alcohol consumption are likely to experience brain health problems as they age, a new study suggests.
Basically all psychoactive substances do. Where these changes happen determines what kind of an effect it will have. For alcohol, we know that flow is altered in the balance centre for example, which is why people on alcohol walk and talk weird
Alcohol is not psychoactive, it is neurotoxic. It effects the cerebellum, which controls balance by constantly firing neurons. The effect is ataxia, which is a disorder or many causes aside from ethanol. This is why the doctors office test for ataxia is similar to the police roadside sobriety test.
