Food can have abig influence on brain health. A doctor points out some drinks that you should avoid consuming because they lead to cognitive decline and increased anxiety.

Michael O. McKinney explains to the SheFinds website that there are fruit juices that can be harmful in this respect.

“The excess sugars present lead to inflammation, which can impair brain function and lead to Alzheimer's.”

This is the case with most store-bought juices and not natural juices, which also contain sugar, but not added sugar. He also reveals that diet soft drinks are also to be avoided.

“They contain artificial sweeteners that interfere with brain chemistry,” the doctor continues. On the other hand, alcoholic drinks are also harmful.

“They lead to reduced brain function. The likelihood of dementia is higher if you engage in this kind of behavior.”
