Fox News
People who drink three or more alcoholic drinks daily suffer larger brain bleeds and more severe white matter damage, new research suggests.
"Heavier drinking is also associated with high blood pressure, which is a contributing factor for this type of stroke." Khloe Quill is a lifestyle production assistant with Fox News Digital. She and the lifestyle team cover a range of story topics including food and drink, travel, and health.
The research — which was published this week in Neurology, the medical journal of the American Academy of Neurology — links heavy drinking to not just earlier strokes, but also larger, deadlier brain bleeds and long-term brain damage.
