The answer is Wernicke – Korsakoff Syndrome. This is a kind of brain disorder triggered by an absence of vitamin B-1. The syndrome is essentially two separate circumstances that can happen at the same time. Typically, people get the indications of Wernicke’s encephalopathy first. This syndrome affects the parts of your brain that regulate memory. Also, chronic alcohol abuse or alcoholism, is the most common reason of WKS.
