A study conducted in Brazil showed people who eat a lot of junk food experience faster mental decline, CNN reported on Monday, August 1, 2022 (see story here).
Specifically, study subjects who ate the most “ultraprocessed foods” had a 28% faster rate of global cognitive decline and a 25% faster rate of executive function decline compared with those who indulged less in hotdogs, french fries, pizza, etc.
By “executive function” the researchers meant “ability to process information and make decisions.” They measured cognitive decline by testing for “word recall, word recognition and verbal fluency.”
It’s not the calories, it’s junk food’s very high sugar, salt, and fat content that causes brain inflammation and swelling.
Now you know why Trumpsters can’t process information, stumble over words, and make very bad voting decisions.
