How Fructose Affects the Hippocampus

This review explores the effects of fructose on hippocampus: hippocampal function and structure, neurogenesis, cognitive function. First, this result confirms that excess intake affects microstructure pathways connecting hippocampus to other brain areas. Fructose has potential affect neurogenesis in hippocampus, a diet high can impair learning memory, leading impairment. However, further research is needed apply animal experiments humans future. The literature focused fructose, but balanced nutrients also be considered.
