(eli5) Alcohol decreases reaction time
In: 0
Alcohol is a depressant, meaning it slows down brain activity. It increases the production of neurotransmitters that slow down signals in between neurons (like GABA) and decreases the production of neurotransmitters that speed them up (like glutamate), meaning the person just can’t process information as fast. That slows down their reaction time.
