Reply to comment by [deleted] in Investigators assessed the risk of dementia using changes in alcohol consumption in nearly four million people in Korea and found that after about 7 years, dementia was 21% less likely in mild drinkers and 17% less likely in moderate drinkers. by Wagamaga
Great point, so in theory the alcohol would have little effect and was just coincident with the higher social activity. Having said that I could still imagine a decent number of mild-moderate drinkers who are minimally social that would muddy that result somewhat.
