We have all heard about super foods and their benefits but
there are foods that can have devastating effects on brain functioning.
It's advisable to consume them moderately in order to limit their harmful impact.
Here are six such foods that can actually lower your intelligence!
1. Sugar
Sugar and sugary food material are bad not only because they make you gain
weight but also harm brain functioning as well. Excess intake of sugar can create
neurological problems, and it can also hamper with your memory. Sugar can also
interfere with your ability to learn, which is why it is advisable to avoid pre-baked goods,
sugar, corn syrup and products that are high in fructose.
2. Processed foods
Almost all processed food contains chemicals, dyes, artificial flavours and
preservatives and this can affect the cognitive functioning of the brain.
3. Sodium
We all know that salty food affects your blood pressure and is not good for
the heart. According to research, a high amount of salt can damage the cognitive
functioning of the brain and can lower your ability to think.
4. Artificial sweeteners
People who are calorie conscious mostly replace sugar with artificial
sweeteners. But artificial sweeteners actually do more harm to your
brain especially if you consume high amount of it everyday.
5. Tofu
According to many recent researches Tofu can heighten the risk of dementia.
6. Alcohol
Alcohol can wreak havoc on your brain by restricting the blood flow. It affects
the function of neurotransmitters by tightening the tiny blood vessels that
play a major role when it comes to brain function.
