Brain Food.
It all begins with an idea.
Sugar is brain food. A shocker, but true. Your brain runs on sugar in the form of glucose. Table sugar is 50% glucose/50% fructose. This means half of your sugar cube is ready to go, right now! Fructose takes a little longer since it’s mostly converted to glucose in your small intestine. So what’s with all of those evil sugar comments? They’re true, but only if you do too much. Not to worry, though, your brain needs 120 grams of glucose every day. This is a part of the 200 grams your body needs from sugar or other carbohydrates. What’s more, according to the World Health Organization, “all sugar alternatives, when consumed long term, do not serve to reduce body fat in either adults or children”.
So, enjoy that dollop of honey in your tea or, better yet, some OGO 100% Complete Nutrition Crisps. Then you get just the right amount of carbohydrates including a little brain-boosting sugar and everything else your body needs, too!
