The therapist stated in interview that in the case of too large doses of sugar eaten, deterioration of intelligence may occur.

The doctor said that craving for sweet, carbohydrate-rich food and eating it without restrictions has a negative effect on intellectual abilities of a person.

“When a person eats a lot of carbohydrate food, sweets, pies, ice cream, his brain, namely neurons, are constantly bombarded sugar and carbohydrate spikes. In this state, the brain's productivity decreases,” noted the internist.

The doctor added that the state of the brain during sugar abuse can be compared to the state of the brain at the level of moderate alcohol intoxication.

The doctor specified that excessive consumption of sweets and carbohydrates can be determined by the lack of tone – a person not only understands worse, but also loses energy, complains of lethargy, drowsiness. According to the therapist, the brain center responsible for daytime activity is deactivated with increased blood sugar concentration.
