LOS ANGELES - Sept. 2, 2020 - What is Wet Brain? A form of neuropsychiatric disorder, Wet Brain is caused by heavy and repeated drinking.
Wet Brain is a kind of neuropsychiatric disorder which results from a low level of thiamine (vitamin B1). The syndrome is usually caused by an abnormality in the pathway of the cerebral cortex. When thiamine deficiency occurs, there is no activity in the thiamine transporter protein. Thiamine transporter protein is responsible for converting thiamine into thiamine; however the level of this transporter protein is very low in some brain diseases.
Wet Brain is characterized by extreme mental confusion, hallucinations, and seizures. Wet Brain symptoms are similar to those of schizophrenia and even mistaken for those of Alzheimer's disease. It is also known as Wernicke-Korsakoff Syndrome; this syndrome is named after the neuropsychologist Wolfgang W. Wernicke and the neurologist E.G. Korsakoff who first noticed this disorder in patients suffering from multiple sclerosis.
Wet Brain symptoms start when you drink more than the recommended daily amount of alcohol. These include red wine and beer. Once your body adjusts to the new quantity of alcohol consumption, the amount of alcohol consumed increases; hence Wet Brain Syndrome results or could lead to alcoholism. This disorder is commonly found in people who are heavy drinkers or alcoholics.
