Nggak!
Nggak, saya nggak akan pake berita ini sebagai argumen untuk
bilang bahwa bila orang Islam tipikal itu banyak yang dungu, maka
sebabnya adalah karena mereka mengharamkan alkohol ..
Nggak!
Kita tunggu dulu dah penelitian selanjutnya.
Tapi, sekarang ini, saya juga tidak menutup kemungkinan bahwa
salah satu sebabnya kenapa orang Islam tipikal itu banyak yang
dungu, maka sebabnya adalah karena mereka mengharamkan alkohol.
Allahu Akbar.

'Alcohol makes your brain grow'
Drinking alcohol boosts the growth of new nerve cells in the
brain, research suggests.
But while this might sound good in theory, the Swedish team
believe these new cells could contribute to the development of
alcohol dependence.
Mice fed moderate quantities of alcohol grew extra brain cells,
but also showed a preference for alcohol over water.
The Karolinska Institute research appears in the International
Journal of Neuropsychopharmacology.
Brain growth
Lead researcher Professor Stefan Brene said: "We believe that the
increased production of new nerve cells during moderate alcohol
consumption can be important for the development of alcohol
addiction and other long-term effects of alcohol on the brain."
Alternatively, the extra cells might help with learning and
memory, he said.
Another theory, according to the researchers, is that the
tranquilising effect of alcohol triggers the growth.
All of the new cells developed normally.
A spokeswoman from the Campaign for Real Ale said: "It is well
known that alcohol in moderation is good for your body so it's no
surprise it's also good for your mind.
"Maybe that is why lots of pub quiz teams are so bright."
A spokeswoman from Alcohol Concern said: "This type of study
could prove useful in the long term to shed light on the
relationship between alcohol intake and dependency.
"However, very little can be drawn from a single animal-based
study at this stage.
"Much more research is needed to explore the relationship
between drinking patterns and their effect on the human brain."
