\u2014 the memory-robbing condition plaguing nearly 1million Brits and seven million Americans<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">Dementia is an ongoing decline in brain functioning that robs sufferers of their memories, abilities and independence.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">Almost one million Brits are thought to be living with dementia, about one in 14 people over the age of 65.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">However, the figure is predicted to rise to nearly 1.5million in the coming decades as the population continues to age.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">Multiple studies have linked high alcohol consumption to increased risk of the disease because prolonged excessive drinking is known to shrink parts of the brain.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">This shrinkage can exacerbate the progression of dementia and sometimes even trigger the condition.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">A lifetime of heavy

factors<\/a>\u00a0that could increase the risk someone could develop dementia in their lifetime.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">As well as more common forms of the disease, excessive drinking can also cause a type of dementia called Wernicke-Korsakoff Syndrome.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">This occurs when alcohol disrupts the body&#8217;s ability to absorb a nutrient called vitamin called B1, also known as\u00a0thiamine, which is vital for keeping brain cells healthy.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">Charities, like Alzheimer&#8217;s Research UK, estimate that
