Have you ever noticed something like a 'brain fog' after eating too much sugar or processed food? What is behind that? And you just don't seem to feel satisfied by what you are eating...And why is it that you sometimes completely forget the eating goals you set in the morning by the time 5 o'clock arrives? It turns out, not only is processed sugary food hijacking our reward centers in the brain and making it hard to enjoy the rest of life, but it is also causing inflammation in specific parts of the brain. Specific parts of the brain that we NEED to have functioning well when we are working toward living healthier. This is part of why processed foods end up working like self-perpetuating cycles that can be hard to break! Tune in today and I'll discuss the two parts of the brain that have been shown by fMRI studies to become inflamed by poor dietary choices.
