Many sweets will be less intelligent?

According to a study conducted by US scientists, just published in the Journal of Digital Physiology on May 15, shows that a high-fructose diet will make learning and remembering information. The brain's reduction is very strong.

>>>Eat lots of sweets, children are less intelligent

Scientists at the University of California (USA) divided the experimental mice into two groups. Both groups were fed corn syrup, a liquid fructose form 6 times sweeter than cane sugar, for 6 weeks. However, the second group was supplemented with Omga 3 fatty acids.

After six weeks, the scientists found that the activity of brain synapses in mice in the first group was markedly reduced, making them unable to remember the path while the brains of mice were in the group. still works well.

'The results of our research show that what you eat affects your thinking , ' said Fernando Gomez-Pinilla, research author working at the University of California. 'Omega-3 supplementation is the best way to minimize damage'.

Corn syrup is often added to the food production process which includes carbonated drinks, spices, apple sauce and baby food.

The US Department of Agriculture said that an average American consumes nearly 15kg of fructose sugar syrup per year.

Some scientists believe that fructose must also be taxed to reduce consumption like alcohol and tobacco.
