Here’s to a festive and joyous New Year’s celebration!
If you have trouble remembering New Year’s celebrations of the past it could be
because you’ve been enjoying too much alcohol. Binge drinking is common among
young people and it has a profound impact on the portions of the brain that
control memory. The best tips for avoiding blackouts from OHSU's On the Brain Blog---eat before drinking,
drink in moderation, and for every glass of wine or spirits, have two glasses
of water. That strategy will keep you hydrated, happy and capable of enjoying
family and friends well past midnight.

Happy New Year and to a healthy new you in 2013!
