Eldorado Posted November 25, 2022 #1 Share Posted November 25, 2022 A new MRI study revealed that consumption of alcohol even in low to moderate amounts during pregnancy can change the baby’s brain structure and delay brain development. Results of the study will be presented next week at the annual meeting of the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA). “Fetal MRI is a highly specialized and safe examination method that allows us to make accurate statements about brain maturation prenatally,” said study senior author Gregor Kasprian, M.D., associate professor of radiology from the Department of Biomedical Imaging and Image-guided Therapy of the Medical University of Vienna in Austria. Alcohol consumption during pregnancy can expose the fetus to a group of conditions called fetal alcohol spectrum disorders. Babies born with fetal alcohol spectrum disorders could develop learning disabilities, behavioral problems or speech and language delays. https://www.eurekalert.org/news-releases/971414 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A woman's body is a woman's body... It's not even a real human being until it gushes forth into the atmosphere and begins to breath oxygen. So, what if a little damage happens to it's brain before it begins breathing air? So what! Big nuthin' burger man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
