A recent study revealed the dangerous impact of sugary drinks on brain health. And its role in many mental health problems.
The researchers discovered that the participants who drank at least two cups of sugary drinks per day, or 3 cups per week. Their brain size was smaller than average, memory was less effective, and it was short-lived.
The hippocampus, the middle temporal lobe of the brain, the region associated with the ability to learn, was also smaller.
Another study indicated that drinks classified as “zero sugars” or “diet drinks” are also dangerous to health.
People who drank at least one cup a day had a three times higher risk of stroke or early dementia than others.
