I don’t know we can put a specific number, but the alcohol makes your brain process information more slowly and makes you less good at making decisions.
Recent studies have proved that drinking alcohol does not ‘kill’ brain cells. Instead it damages things known as dendrites. Dendrites are found at the end of nerve cells and help with transmitting signals to cells. This causes problems when the nervous system needs to send messages into cells.
In fact you are more likely to kill brain cells by rapidly shaking your head or not drinking enough water than you are from a glass of wine!
