Soda is bad for the brain

Feb­ru­ary 19, 2017, 11:47

Sci­en­tists have found that peo­ple who reg­u­lar­ly con­sume sug­ary car­bon­at­ed drinks can expe­ri­ence struc­tur­al changes in the brain. The brain of soda drinkers is sub­ject to changes that are observed in can­cer patients or men­tal­ly ill peo­ple.

Such shock­ing con­clu­sions were received by spe­cial­ists from Aus­tralia. Dur­ing the study, they used exper­i­men­tal rats, whose diet was intro­duced sweet water instead of reg­u­lar. The result of the exper­i­ment turned out to be unhap­py: the chem­i­cal com­po­si­tion of the brain changed in the ani­mals and changes in the behav­ior of the ani­mals appeared.

Sci­en­tists from Amer­i­ca echo their Aus­tralian col­leagues: accord­ing to them, sev­er­al cans of sweet soda drunk in one day can cut life in half. The sug­ar con­tained in these drinks con­tributes to the for­ma­tion of such a seri­ous dis­ease as dia­betes, and also leads to prob­lems in the func­tion­ing of the heart and liv­er. All these fac­tors con­tribute to the reduc­tion of life expectan­cy.

With the immod­er­ate con­sump­tion of sweet waters, nei­ther sports and phys­i­cal activ­i­ty, nor high-qual­i­ty foods, which make up the main diet, can cor­rect the sit­u­a­tion.

There­fore, doc­tors and nutri­tion­ists con­stant­ly include soda in the list of unhealthy foods.
