Well, you have part of it right. Thanks for double checking. Unhealthy carbohydrates are not good for your brain--or your body for that matter. Processed foods, desserts, refined foods with high sugar-white flour-and fat. Your brain is a complex and world-class universe. Its primary preferred source of energy (after water) is carbohydrates that it breaks down into glucose. Glucose forms fuel that your brain, central nervous system, red-blood cells, and muscles require, to name just a few. Eating unhealthier carbs over time can stress both brain and body and pile on weight. However, eating fewer healthier carbs may not be the ticket. Eating moderate amounts of healthier carbs likely is. Lack of enough appropriate nutrition can be lethal for brain neurons. They can begin to cannibalize—eat themselves—in a desperate attempt to call for food.
