The text suggests alcohol does not cause forgetfulness but leads to temporary memory loss when extremely drunk.
The claim that alcohol causes temporary memory loss when extremely drunk is supported by evidence found in web research. Multiple sources indicate that alcohol disrupts brain function, primarily in the hippocampus, leading to memory impairments and blackouts in extreme cases. Thus, the claim aligns with established findings, but it is important to note that alcohol can also cause forgetfulness, especially when consumed in large quantities.
