This is not a joke but a very serious matter.
Eating too much sugar can eat away  your brainpower, according to US scientists who published a study Tuesday showing how a steady diet of high-fructose corn syrup sapped lab rats' memories.



Too much sugar will rot your teeth, but it turns out the sweet stuff could also make you stupid, according to researchers at UCLA. The scientists gave two groups of rats water laden with high-fructose corn syrup but added omega-3 fatty acids (which protect against damage to brain cells) to one group's diet. The group without the omega-3s was much slower when it came to running a maze, forgetting much of a route it had already learned. Remember that the next time you're downing a super-sized soda: You might not be able to figure out how to get home.
