<p>Binge drinking (drinking 5 units over a 2 hour period, followed by a period of abstinence) and high alcohol intake (more than 5 units a day), can lead to dependence, tolerance and cravings, which lead to a continuation of alcohol abuse to prevent withdrawal symptoms.</p>
|
||
<p>Chronic alcohol abuse can have adverse effects such as loss of balance and gait, slurred speech, slower reactions, poor memory consolidation, compromised emotional modulation and judgement. These effects in turn can lead to difficulties in social and emotional interactions, and a reduction in motivation, attention and impulse control.</p>
|
||
<p>These effects are studied and proven using methods such as MRI scans which show loss of neurons, particularly in the frontal lobe, the area most associated with reasoning, decision-making and rationality, however it can affect other areas of the brain such as the cerebellum (associated with balance and movement), hippocampus (memory) and amygdala (memory, decision making and emotional responses).

|
||
<p>Cerebellum (latin for "little brain") is one of the important areas of the brain with a primary function of motor control, which includes all directed movement, stability and balance, posture, gait and even reflexes. [<a href='#ref-3'>3</a>] Cerebellum is also important for cognition, emotion, attention, language control and more. [<a href='#ref-4'>4</a>] Antomatically, the cerebellum is located at the bottom of the brain, separate from the hemispheres. [<a href='#ref-5'>5</a>] You can see the cerebellum highlighted in the model below.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>Our understanding of Cerebellum's function with regards to motor control, its primary function, is that it does not initiate movement, but rather calibrates and coordinates the movement for precision and accurate timing, this can in turn affect stability while standing or walking, general posture and coordination.
