RE: Why Soda Is Bad For Your Brain - And Diet Soda Is Even Worse!
There are much more factors at play in this than just soda. The environmental factors play such a huge role in peoples development.
But at least some of us can burn off any and all sugars at a high rate. ;P Like myself.
I will say that I disagree with this statement
The artificial sweeteners in diet soda are designed to trick the brain into thinking it gets more "fuel" through glucose.
The brain compensates for the lack of glucose through ketosis. Artificial sweeteners might have something to play though with an inhibitor to the ketones the body produces. (Don't mix this with elevated levels of ketones in diabetic patients.)
That's true, the study wasn't 100% reliable since they didn't specify what kind of artificial sweeteners, and if the people were already prone to diabetes etc.
But still, I think the results are very eye-opening!
It most definitely is eye-opening. I wonder if most people don't already know this on some level, but would rather slowly kill themselves.
