@instituteofhumananatomy: 🧠 Ever wondered why alcohol affects you the way it does? It all comes down to which part of the brain it's suppressing. Prefrontal cortex — reasoning, judgment, and impulse control. Suppress this → the filter comes off. You say and do things sober-you never would. 😬 Hippocampus — short-term memory formation. Suppress this → memory gaps, and at higher levels, full blackouts. Cerebellum — movement coordination and balance. Suppress this → stumbling, loss of coordination, impaired motor function. 🍺 Medulla oblongata — and this is where it gets serious. The medulla controls your respiratory centers. At high enough levels of alcohol intake, suppression here can cause hypoventilation, coma, and potentially death. This is the anatomy behind alcohol poisoning. ⚠️ Four brain regions. Four very different consequences. All from the same substance.
