Aging and alcohol do not mix well. Even small amounts of alcohol can significantly increase the risk of falls, fractures, head injuries, memory problems, medication interactions, and hospitalizations in older adults.

At Espinosa Neuroscience Institute, we believe healthy aging means protecting the brain and body — and for many elderly patients, avoiding alcohol completely may be one of the safest choices.
