It turns out that foods that cause brain aging are present in the diets of many people around the world.

These are foods high in added sugar, which scientists believe can impair memory and increase the risk of dementia.

Nowadays, added sugar is found almost everywhere: even in drinks, yogurts, sauces, etc.

To control your sugar intake, it's a good idea to cook at home, such as making your own sauces or desserts, and to read the ingredients carefully before buying foods.

The ranking doesn't end there: it also includes refined carbohydrates, which are found in white bread, baked goods, breakfast cereals, etc.

Not only do they contain no nutritional value, they also have a negative impact on brain function.

Therefore, it makes sense to replace refined carbohydrates with complex ones, which can be found in vegetables and fruits, legumes and whole grains.

Finally, in order not to expose yourself to the development of dementia and other neurodegenerative diseases, it makes sense to give up processed meat, stop buying sausages, ham and hot dogs and leave poultry, lean beef, fish, etc. on your table.
