Binge-drinking students are permanently damaging their brains’ ability to process information, a new study shows.

Having five or more beers for men, or in excess of four for women, within two hours leads to distinctive changes in brain activity.

Such changes, which can lead to muddled thoughts, are similar to those seen in alcoholics, Portuguese scientists claim. 

The findings are worrying, as the researchers said for many students, this amount of drinking wouldn’t equate to a particularly heavy night.
