What foods are not good for our brain?

There are many foods that have a negative impact on the function of our brain. These are the following:

Sugary and carbonated drinks

Drinks that are full of sugar are sports / energy drinks, soft drinks, soda and juices. This is because their main ingredient is fructose syrup which consists of fructose and glucose. By swallowing them there is a very negative effect on the brain. High levels of fructose and sugar in the blood have been shown to increase the risk of Alzheimer’s disease, dementia, decreased brain function, memory and the formation of brain neurons. Memory disorders are the most common consequence of swallowing such drinks.

Processed carbohydrates

Processed carbohydrates contain sugars and processed hydrocarbons such as e.g. flour. In general, all these types of carbohydrates have a high glycemic index, which makes them particularly easy for humans to digest and cause satiety as they have the ability to increase blood sugar and insulin levels. However, since we are talking about their damage to our brain, foods with a high glycemic load directly reduce people’s memory. At the same time, foods with high levels of fat and sugar also have less memory as they affect parts of the brain that affect aspects of memory. Finally, it has been shown that a high daily carbohydrate intake has almost doubled the risk of mild mental dysfunction and dementia and finally a low score on verbal intelligence.
