Weather of Arabia - Researchers from the German University of Giessen revealed the results of their study, which shows that consuming drinks with added sugars and natural sugars is significantly linked to an increased risk of dementia. In a remarkable shift, this study showed that excessive consumption of drinks with high levels of sugars The additive could contribute to what they called “brain theft,” a term for possible dementia.
According to a report published by the British newspaper The Sun , the study indicated that this association extends to some common drinks such as fruit drinks, flavored milk drinks, and even full-fat soft drinks.
On the other hand, the study indicated that fruit juices, which contain natural sugars, have also been associated with the risk of “brain theft,” but to a lesser extent in comparison.

A recent German study published by the British newspaper “The Sun” showed that excessive consumption of drinks with added sugars is significantly associated with an increased risk of what is known as “brain theft,” a term that refers to the possibility of developing dementia.
A study published in Springer Nature showed that drinking tea and coffee is not associated with an increased risk of dementia at all, while the mystery remains about how increased sugar intake affects the increased risk of developing the disease.
Scientists do not fully know the mechanisms by which increased sugar intake leads to an increased risk of dementia. However, some studies suggest that sugar can cause inflammation, which is thought to play a role in neurodegenerative conditions such as Alzheimer's disease, which is the most common type of dementia. Cases.
The researchers analyzed the diets of 186,622 study participants, aged from 37 to 73 years , over a period of ten years, during which 1,498 cases of dementia were recorded.

Scientists believe that this contradicts eating foods that contain added or natural sugars, as no “significant association” has been observed between them and cases of dementia. Separate studies have shown that consuming sugar in liquid form is much worse than consuming it in solid foods, and it is likely that the reason is due to Partly because the brain doesn't register calories from liquid sugar in the same way it does with solid foods.
Researchers point out that drinking calories does not elicit the same satiety signals derived from eating solid food, which ultimately leads to eating larger amounts of food and being exposed to the risk of weight gain.
