Studies report most dangerous foods for brain

There are foods that would be better to reduce their consumption in the daily diet or perhaps seriously consider excluding them, since several studies have shown the danger they represent for the functioning of the brain and how it can expose it to serious neurological diseases.

Pastries, sweets and soft drinks are among the most dangerous foods. According to a study by the British University of Bath, the amount of sugar in these products damages the vital enzyme involved in the inflammatory response in the early stages of Alzheimer’s.

Thus, this study has shown that patients with diabetes have a higher risk of developing Alzheimer’s compared to healthy people.

Junk food like chips, burgers and the like are also on the list of dangerous products for the brain.

• Space weather at Proxima Centauri threatens potentially habitable planets
• This food you eat every day increases the risk of developing diabetes
• Expert names dangerous drugs for coronavirus
• This is the daily consumption of fruits and vegetables that guarantees you a healthier life – study

A study by scientists from the Australian National University explained that these foods “are eating up your brain.” 

Unhealthy eating habits put you at serious risk of developing diseases such as diabetes 2, significant declines in brain function, dementia, and even brain shrinkage.

Spicy foods or spices can also be dangerous. Scientists from the University of South Australia detected in a study that these foods could be related to dementia after accelerated cognitive decline was evidenced in people who ate a spicy diet.

Another study published in The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition showed that consuming processed meats is a potential risk for incident dementia.
