(Newswire.net — October 27, 2013) Boston, MA –A new article and video titled Top Three Reasons Why High Blood Sugar Affects Memory provides several  important reasons why high  blood sugar affects memory.


Lower blood sugar levels seem to improve memory health while high blood sugar levels appear to cause memory problems, even in those with blood sugar levels on the high end of normal.


People with low blood sugar levels show better recall and memory than those with increased levels of blood sugar.  People with low blood glucose levels also demonstrated a larger hippocampus than people with higher blood glucose levels.


Increased blood sugar levels may constrict the vessels that deliver blood to the brain, leading to less nutrients, oxygen and blood available to the brain.  


As blood glucose levels increase, so does the chances of insulin resistance.  Insulin resistance increases the levels of blood sugar and insulin in the blood, and prevents the body and brain from recognizing this increase; this can cause numerous health issues including diabetes, weight gain, heart disease – and now, potential memory problems.
