Were you a brainy kid in high school? If so, science may be able to predict how much alcohol you will drink later in life. That’s a finding from Professor Sherwood Brown, a distinguished teaching Professor of Psychiatry at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center. In this wide-ranging interview, he discusses the relationship between IQ and alcohol consumption in later life, the factors that contribute to alcohol use disorder, and what’s currently known about the best way to treat alcohol use disorder. And also the surprising relationship between alcohol consumption and asthma.
But there’s also a lot we don’t know, and Dr Brown outlines the gaps, plus spills the tea on what doctors drink when they get together. It’s a great episode that answers a lot of questions about alcohol, addiction and the brain.
