Good news! Alcohol and dementia

In conclusion, our analyses indicate that maintaining mild to moderate alcohol consumption is associated with a decreased risk of dementia, whereas maintaining heavy drinking is associated with an increased risk of dementia. Notably, our analyses stratified by the initial amount of alcohol consumption indicate that reduction of drinking from a heavy to a moderate level and initiation of mild drinking were associated with a decreased risk of all-cause dementia and AD.
