2. Sugar and refined carbohydrates: an insidious threat
These foods are so common that many people forget how harmful they are. Frequent blood sugar spikes disrupt hormones, cloud thinking, impair memory, and accelerate brain aging. Reducing sugar intake and choosing whole foods is a simple protective measure.
