Limit refined carbs

Excessive consumption of refined carbs, such as those found in cakes, cereal, cookies, white rice, and white bread, may harm your memory. These foods have a high glycemic index, which means that they are quickly digested by the body and cause an increase in blood sugar levels.

Studies have revealed that dementia, cognitive decline, and decreased cognitive function are linked to the Western diet, which is high in refined carbohydrates. In one research including 317 healthy Korean youngsters, it was shown that those who ate more processed carbs, such as white rice, noodles, and fast food, had a worse cognitive function, including worse working and short-term memory. Another study found that those who regularly drank ready-to-eat breakfast cereal had worse cognitive function than those who did not.
