If your blood sugar is on the high end of the normal range, diabetes may not be your only risk.
A recent study in “Neurology” suggests you are also at risk of brain shrinkage in areas associated with memory and thinking. The study finds that even people with fasting blood sugar levels at the high end of normal are more likely to have shrinkage in the brain.
A healthy diet, in particular, a Mediterranean diet, has been shown to help prevent cognitive decline in aging. The less sugar products you consume, the better it is for you. Keep your sugar intake to the minimum.
