Employees at Boston University (USA) found that regular consumption of drinks with a high sugar content (juices, various kinds of soda) negatively affects the activity of the hippocampus (the center responsible for memory) and the brain as a whole. In addition, sweet liquids increase the risk of dementia and the likelihood of a stroke by three times.

Similar conclusions were drawn based on an analysis of data from a group of four thousand people over thirty years old.. Volunteers were subjected to cognitive testing, and their organisms were examined using MRI..

Another group (forty-five years and older), consisting of a little less than three thousand people, was under the supervision of scientists for ten years.

The results of the studies clearly indicate that sweet drinks have a negative effect on the state of the brain. Fans of sweet soda are much more at risk for dementia and stroke, and also much more likely to suffer from diabetes, which is known to contribute to the development of dementia.
