The test was done on mice, they were given alcohol and after 10 days they were examined. The test verified that mice that were given alcohol in their youth had smaller forebrain size and volume as compared to adults.

The recent study revealed that 12% in 8th, 22% of 10th, 28% of 12th and 44% of college students have been found consuming huge amount of alcohol. Adolescents between the age of 12 and 20 are more likely to grow with the brain damage.

Binge drinking leaves a bad impact on teenagers, which leads to brain damage. Alcohol can lead to accidents, fights and heavy consumption of alcohol also leads to memory loss. Adolescents have more risk of brain damage because teenage is the time when the developing neural circuits of brain are very sensitive and they can be disrupted even.
