Is Sugar Linked to Dementia?

  • Summary

  • Original study: https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMoa1215740

    This study looked at a large group of people, some with diabetes and some without, to see if there was a link between their blood sugar levels and their risk of developing dementia. They found that people with higher blood sugar levels, even those without diabetes, were more likely to develop dementia over time. It seems like even slightly elevated blood sugar could be harmful to the brain. This means that keeping blood sugar levels in check is really important, even for people who don't have diabetes, to help protect against dementia.
